We visited the Lake Erie area a couple weekends ago with friends, and I feel like it's so underrated! We actually stayed in Conneaut, Ohio which was gorgeous and hope to go back. Our air bnb was so perfect, right on lake erie.
Check out the cute place and the views from inside ! Link to air bnb: https://abnb.me/Wj4cLEcewsb
We saw beautiful sunsets right in the backyard and had a fire.
It was a perfect evening for a fire. I love these earthragz hoodies, so comfy and great around a fire.
During the day, We took a pontoon boat out on the lake and hung out on a sandbar. Highly recommend renting a boat from Harbor Yak! We went to the Bum Boat after for some drinks.
I think we look good, dressed in boat style!
We rented a lily pad and chilled out at the sandbar. It was so nice !
Inside the bum boat. Cutest idea for a bar! They had some food too.

In the evening we went to a cute winery close by (was not a fan of their wines) and we ate dinner waterfront in Conneaut. Nice atmosphere with live music and views of the dock.
We drove over to the Lake Eries Bluff state park the next day and did an easy hike in that area. It was more of a mountain bike trail but was still fun.
There are overlooks of the lake at times and you walk a little along the shoreline at one point. We also walked through a field where we saw Lots of butterflies (didn't follow the trail 100% as above). The milkweed was starting to become nutritious for the monarchs ! Easy hike and really nice area overall.
The driftwood that comes up on the shore looks neat.
Someone actually spray painted some driftwood purple, which I have mixed feelings about lol.
After our hike we drove over to Conneaut Park and had ourselves a beachy afternoon. It was relaxing !
We have been slacking a bit on getting our hikes in but sometimes life happens. Other commitments, weather, work schedules can play a part. I will be returning back to work soon (summer is almost over 😫) so we will hopefully be doing more weekend adventures.
Cheers !
