Lake Logan in Hocking County

Down 33 East you'll find a family friendly beach called Lake Logan.

There are no water slides or showers but, what there is made my children squeal with delight.

Quite simply, there is water and sand and not much else.

This suited my kids just fine.

They threw off their clothes revealing their bathing suits as if they were super heroes late for a rescue mission!

Splashing happily, we played in the water relishing the last weekend of freedom for my eldest. Though she is sad about summer ending, there is no doubt that we squeezed every bit of joy out of our time together this wonderful season!

If you have a yen for a late summer dip, consider Lake Logan. (http://www.hockinghillspark.com/Lake_Logan.asp)

The beach is clean, the water still relatively warm and it's quiet charm will take you back to summer's spent at small country lakes.

Bring the kids inflatable toys... there are no rules against them. Pack a picnic and grab some cash for the concession stand. Expect your children to be shocked at the clean but primitive toilets!
This will need to be a total family adventure as there are not lifeguards and I don't recommend children in water without supervision.

If you're like me, once the shock of the water wears off, you'll find yourself happily splashing alongside your brood.

Summer's not over yet!
