This place is terrific no matter what you like to do. Lake Macbride is a no-wake lake so you can kayak, canoe, etc. There are motor restrictions on this lake so don't plan to take a boat with bigger than a 9.9 HP motor from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Beach, hiking trails, boat ramps, fishing. The sunsets here are incredible - many options for picnics for families or for a romantic evening. You will need a car to get to this spot unless you hike the five mile trail from town.

Lake Macbride State Park's 2,180 acres offer much to the outdoor enthusiast: fishing, picnicking, swimming, hiking, camping, boating and lots more. The park is located in two units. The northern unit lies at the end of County Road F-16, 4 miles west of Solon. Here you will find a modern campground, boat ramps, beach and boat rental, picnic areas and the park office. The southern unit is located off County Road F-28 (Fifth Street in Solon), 3 miles west of Solon. The southern unit offers a non-modern campground, boat ramps, picnic areas, a frisbee golf course and a prairie.

Only a short drive away for hiking, swimming, boating (including rentals). The raptor center is great for animal lovers and kids.
