RV rental Shawnee State Park, OH: Motorhome rentals, camper van rentals and more

Boating and fishing are a great way to spend your time here at Shawnee State Park. Both Roosevelt Lake and Turkey Creek Lake have boat ramps and offer excellent fishing. You can expect to reel in catfish, largemouth bass, and bluegill. Crappie and trout are also common catches. The park also hosts an annual trout derby at Turkey Creek Lake. Many visitors find a pleasant time at the park's 18-hole public golf course. The course is near the Ohio River and features a pro shop for golfers. The course itself is an open, lush, green area with four ponds throughout it. One hole along the way offers a great view of the riverbanks. If you're into golfing, be sure to check out the course, or maybe even introduce the family to the sport. Make sure to get your fill of fun at one of the beaches in Shawnee State Park, or even both. One beach can be found along Roosevelt Lake and the other at Turkey Creek Lake. Visitors may go swimming or soak up the sun on the sandy beach. Changing rooms are available to swimmers at each of the beaches. Wildlife watching is another fan favorite at Shawnee. The park includes a nature center and a wide variety of flora and fauna. Forests here are full of hardwood trees and unique wildflowers. Animals you'll likely find include the white-tailed deer, wild turkey, and raccoon. Keep your eyes open for black bears and bobcats, as these are occasionally seen as well. For birdwatchers, the park is home to various species of songbirds and may lead you to some new sightings, so stay alert.
