About Adams Lake State Park

A small dry-prairie remnant, now protected as Adams Lake Prairie State Nature Preserve, sits within the park's boundaries, a landscape type rarely preserved in this part of Ohio. The 96 acres split evenly between land and the surrounding lake, giving room for fishing, boating, picnicking, and hiking around the water.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
