Easy Access from the Towpath

Run by the Conservancy for Cuyahoga National Park are 5 FREE reservable campsites located just ¼ mile off the trail in Peninsula, OH.   Sites are available for hikers/cyclists only.

Each site is situated on grass and has a picnic table. Pit toilets, a group fire ring (firewood supplied), and drinking water are available to campers as well.  Some sites are well-shaded with some privacy and others are wide open and get quite a bit of sun. Definitely check yourself and your pets regularly for ticks as they are abundant.

The Stanford House is a gorgeous historic home which will greet you when you enter the property. Just 3 miles south on the towpath in the village of Peninsula, OH (and right next to the towpath) are Century Cycles (super helpful bike shop!!) and the Winking Lizard Tavern (great place to get dinner, an adult beverage, or just dessert after a long day of cycling)!
