     Stay the night at Bonita-osage Park, and skiing at Brandywine is one of those things you just should do. You'll need more than a day to look at everything Von Gunten Pond has to offer, you can camp at Tamsin RV Park; whitewater paddling is not for everybody but if it's for you then, we recommend Yellow Creek. This lake is so wonderful. A lake nearby is Steriner Pond, and if you need a place to stay Courtyard Akron Montrose is a delightful choice. For the period of  
   the summertime, highs typically are in the 80's at Von Gunten Pond with night lows in the 60's. During the winter highs are in the 30's while the cold winter nights at Von Gunten Pond are in the 10's.
What a place this is for outdoors folks. Von Gunten Pond is a place with many visitors from Cleveland-Elyria-Mentor; Von Gunten Dam is pretty. The panoramas at Cuyahoga Valley National Recreation Area will blow your mind, and a wonderful close by hotel is
 
               Residence Inn Akron. This lake is so wonderful. Old Pine Golf Course is a wonderful golf course nearby, and get your pulse rate up on the good whitewater of Cuyahoga River.
Von Gunten Pond gets a typical amount of precipitation; the month of June is the wettest with most of the rain, and January on the other hand is the driest. If you get bored of Von Gunten Pond, you could also visit nearby Bath Pond; you'll never forgive yourself if you don’t go skiing at Boston Mills while you're here.

MORE STUFF NEARBY:

Yellow Creek
the week of july 3 has been a nasty one for yellow creek. a developer in richfield has clear cut into zoned conservation district. some of this district was even under the control of the western reserve conservation district and they were never informed. this land is within 100 feet of the northern most feeder creek to yellow creek. any help we could receive with this matter would be appreciated....

Cuyahoga River
The sewage treatment plant just up river of the put-in location can make paddling after a big rain a little smelly.  The park doesn't recommend any paddling on the river, and if you are going you should check their website for construction on the bridges along the way....

Boston Mills
Boston Mills is great!!!...

Brandywine
My grandparents live right by Brandywine so I get to go snowboarding every time we visit them in the winter....

Virginia Kendall Park Lake
The dam was washed out in 2007, and is under repair. In the meantime it is very neat to be able to see the bottom of the lake. When I was a kid there used to be wooden toggonan runs that shot the tobbogans out onto the frozen lake at the end. The nearby Virginia Hills are still a great place for sledding, one of the best in the area.
Tamsin Park has been replaced by a housing subdivision. However, not far from Virginia Kendall in Boston is a American Youth Hostel, and there are several bed and breakfasts in the area as well. I don't know of any place to camp in the area (unless you are a boy or girl scout, they have camps nearby.)
If you enjoy biking, the nearby towpath trail winds along the old canal from Cleveland to Akron, and is a beautiful ride....

Summit Lake
10 miles away
You would be crazy to swim in that lake.  The place is very polluted. This 'hood isn't exactly a vacation area. ...Summit Lake is an old man-made reservoir for the ohio/erie and ohio/pennsylvania canal systems in the area. There used to be an amusement park with beach/swimming area on the east side of the lake many years ago. Plenty of swimming spots just a mile or so south at Portage Lakes....Summit lake is an inner city lake that has no swimming.  there is fishing but fish from the lake are not safe to eat, there have been 3 alligators caught there in recent years (seriously) The area is known to be quite dangerous after dark.  There are some lovely  areas just south of the city that are much safer.  Summit Lake....not so much...
