Elk Lake is a nice lake to visit. Olive Branch Campground is a brilliant campground nearby; after a long day outdoors Comfort Suites Mason is a great place to spend a night or two. Going for a hike along the Beechtree Trail will let you absorb the natural beauty of this region. If the weather is good here at Elk Lake, you can go for a hike along the Southwoods Trail, needless to say you could also visit Gray Pond while you're here; it's not far at all.

| | This lake is so wonderful. Hiking along the Lakeview Trail is wonderful fun, and since you're here you will meet lots of people from nearby Dayton. Stay the night at Big Turtle Campground, and golf can be played at Bel-Wood Country Club. Elk Lake Dam is worth checking out since you're here, and glide down the rapids of Second Creek in a kayak.
This lake is so wonderful. Paddling on Hall's Creek is so much fun; Elk Lake is not the only site nearby, Harper | |

Hall's Creek
| Halls is a great run when it has water it is very hard to catch with good flow in it though. Ledges include a 10-12 footer (two of them) 4-5 foot and some nice smaller drops, it is a short run with a lot of action...... |
Olive Branch Campground
 | Wow! This is by far the cleanest and most family friendly campground I have ever been to. There was ONE bug in the bathroom. The showers were obviously cleaned more than once a day. There are short trails to hike on site. There is also a camp store that is well stocked and reaswonably priced. One other major attraction is that it is less than a mile from Interstate 71 and only three exits from King's Island. There are tons of other fun activities close by such as canoeing, horseback riding and SHOPPING. Kudos to the owners on running a wonderful campground. ... |
Caesar Creek
| Caesar creek is at most class 2. I work as a river guide in Tennessee and West Virgina, and Caesar's a pretty run lots of history with the shawnee....This can be run only when the USGS gauge is 7' or more, or when the ouflow from the dam is about 400 cfs....there are wave trains of approximately 2 feet in height. it is overall just a fun long set rapids for 3 miles... |

Cowan Lake

It is not impossible for water mocassins to be in a lake. Where do you think they get there name from? They are not land mocassins....I camp at cowan as often as I can. Not too much luck with the fish but really nice park....I had camped at Cowan lake back in the early 70's and was told there were Water Mocassins in Cowan Lake but have been told that is impossible, is it?... |
Dogwood Trail
 | 15 miles away
As I spend most of each summer at Cowan Lake State Park, I have become very familar with each of its trails. One of my favorites is the dogwood trail. I always enjoy a somewhat scenic hike and then reach the fields of blackberries. I can typically find 30 to 40 ripened blackberries on each bush and I enjoy my findings very much. It is great trail whether you eenjoy blackberries or not.... |
