About this park

Madison Lake State Park lies within the vast Darby Plains of Ohio and offers a peaceful day-use getaway. When the region was first settled, the grassy meadows were assumed to be unsuitable for farming, but later the area became an important livestock center. A dam built on Deer Creek in the 1940s created the 106-acre lake, which attracts anglers and offers excellent sailing, rowing and canoeing. A one-mile trail follows the lakeshore, and a shelter house provides a spot for gatherings.
