This is a neat covered bridge tucked away from traffic. Bridge is very pretty along with the view. This time of year the trees are really pretty as well. Must see.

Kayak, Canoe, and paddleboad rentals in Historic Ashtabula Harbor! Enjoy miles of river, an endless laskeshore, and multiple beaches. We offer sunset tours. We leave our launch and head out behind the breakwall or to the lighthouse as the sun sets.

This is such an easy way to have an amazing day on the river. Rent kayaks, hydrobikes, or paddle boards or even launch your own kayaks with a helpful, cheery staff. They keep their property very clean. I wish there was a sign by the main road to advertise where they are located.

Beautiful! The parking area was clean and shaded and the trail was easy to walk and well maintained. Water was up and flowing fast, so we stayed back from the river. Lots of information to read about the history in the gazebo area. Definitely something to visit!!
