A perfect location to camp here at Hough Lake is Lake In The Pines, and some of the water close by flows, like Chance Branch. This lake is so wonderful. There are other sites here than Hough Lake, for example Lake Dilldear, and if you're here, you might as well stop by Kruse Hollow. Don't leave Hough Lake without first going for a hike along the Little Turtle Trail, and Quality Inn & Suites is a magnificent spot to get some rest. This lake is so wonderful.

Great Miami River
 | 19 miles away Having paddled the 70 miles of the Great Miami, the WW is great for beginners or rec paddlers wanting to have a little excitement added to their trip. Water Quality is good, in fact it can be better then the Little Miami during low water. Best time to hit the GM is when it is running between 2500cfs and 3800cfs (Hamilton USGS gage if your looking for some WW. There isn't too many places in the summer in the Midwest you can find good water and waves, but the Great Miami still flows well in August....50 hole is not much of a surf and it is a porta john....... |
