Even a smaller sections of play equipment for younger kids. Lots of benches and picnic tables to watch the kids or have a meal. There is also beach access walking down some large rock stairs. The beach is a decent size with lots of flat rocks. Beware of all the dead fish. Not sure if they get cleaned up during certain parts of the year but on our visit there were a lot. Still a beautiful view!

I believe the young guys that helped us were named Jonah and Sam. Very helpful, strong and a good sense of humor for my cousin who wasn't the happiest camper in the entire world about the experience (kayaking was my idea). The prices are reasonable and they offer one or two hour rentals. We chose two hours because we knew we wanted to go slowly and take our time. If you can catch your rental at 4pm while pre-booking online, snag it! The river is fairly calm at that hour and it's an easy time to just float while out of the heat of the day. As a tall person, the kayak was comfortable enough for me and I appreciated the cup holder for my swell water bottle. I also recommend bringing a floating protector pouch for your phone and keys because you'll have the room for it in the kayak. Overall, a fun experience that everyone should try at least once! The Vermilion River is great people watching and has fun vantage points from the kayak.

Downtown Vermilion has become a popular tourist attraction, with local shops and highly rated restaurants. It is a short walk away. On the way back, be sure to stop at Romp's Dairy Dock for some of the best soft-serve cones, sundaes, and flurries in Ohio. You won't be disappointed!

VYC is one of the oldest clubs in the area, I think its even pushing 80! Thankfully, it still looks great. The clubhouse is beautifully maintained and is a gorgeous event space. Some important things to note: there's no private pool or private restaurant at VYC, like most local area clubs. VYC is all about the quiet atmosphere, and its better that way. The indoor/outdoor seating areas of the clubhouse are great places to read, have a glass of wine and just enjoy the boats on the channel. VYC remains untouched by rowdy guests and excessive noise, which is a gem in itself. VYC embraces the vintage Commodore classiness of old-school Yacht Clubs. For guest docking, you can spend time at the VYC if your vessel is under 80 feet drawing 10 feet or less. Guests can have dock spots on the river wall or in temporarily vacant slips. If you're not a member, but looking for a charming town to dock and visit, definitely keep VYC on your shortlist!

Unfortunately you have to select one star to write a review, they do not deserve any stars…read more Horrible service and very unprofessional. They are nice people, but have no clue how to get things done right. I made the mistake of purchasing a new boat from Beaver Park marina. I had to take the boat back 10 times for repairs and most of the repairs were for the same issues. Some components on the boat never worked and still do not work. They said the components are just cheaply made and they couldn't do anything about it. However, when purchasing the boat, they insisted that the boat was a great buy with solid features and components. It is sad they are still in business and I feel for anyone who falls victim to them for service or buying a boat. Just note when you do buy from them you are on your own and there will be no support from Beaver Park. STAY AWAY, HORRIBLE.

In addition to dockage, they have a swimming pool, tennis court, on-site putt-putt course, large picnic area and ice cream shop. If it's a bad boating day, there are more then enough activities to keep kids occupied. Romp's itself is located on the Vermilion River, just minutes onto the lake. The location is perfect, and the cruise out of the marina is actually quite enjoyable--lots of good people and boat watching! The marina is also just a short walk/drive to beautiful downtown Vermilion, and to the nearby beach. If you're a hardcore boater, you'll be so happy to know that Romp's cares about every one of their members. They know everyone by name and boat, and are always super fast and communicative if an issue arises, or if they are assisting you with repairs. The owners can also be seen constantly zipping around this large property on their golf cart... don't be shy to say hello!

This is a full restroom with fully functioning toilets. If you're at the nearby beach, this is basically the closest restroom (until the Main Street Beach comfort station finishes construction). It's not the gross public restroom you're probably thinking of. Dare I call this restroom...cute? The Comfort Station is the original Vermilion Police location dating back to 1912. It has an old-fashioned look to it, so if you pass it on the street, you probably won't immediately comprehend what it is. Exchange Park is a little gem in Vermilion, and the Comfort Station adds a nice necessity for those beaching, biking, etc. Its super clean and maintained well by the city. Thanks, Vermilion, for keeping it up!

Pier 619 had an available boat for us to rent that would fit our family. The service we had was impeccable. The staff was incredibly nice, accommodating, and went over all the safety checks with the family very well. This review would have been higher if it weren't for the condition of the boat. It was an older boat, which is fine because we are renting a boat not expecting a new state of the art boat. The downfall was the smell of the boat, it appeared the water had molded the carpet which caused a mildew smell that was pretty overwhelming. This will not deter us from renting a boat from Pier 619 again because the price and the customer service was incredible. If the boats are given a good scrub and the carpets replaced on the boats this review could quickly go to 5 stars.
