Dive Into Valentine’s Day at Buckeye Lake
The most romantic day of the year is almost here, and we’re giving you all the tips and tricks to have your Valentine’s Day date night (or weekend) go smooth-sailing.
1. Book Your V-Day Getaway
With multiple short-term rentals all around the lake, you’ll find the best stay for your V-Day getaway! Find lakefront cottages and chic, photo-worthy homes with beautiful waterfront views to make your trip as memorable as possible.
2. Out & About
Located less than 20 minutes from Buckeye Lake, take a relaxing stroll through the pet-friendly Dawes Arboretum with approximately 12 miles of hiking trails! Or enjoy a peaceful walk on the lake with the 4-mile Buckeye Lake walking and biking trail with beautiful sunrises and breathtaking sunsets along the shoreline nearly each day!
3. Gifts Galore
Grab the perfect Valentine’s Day bouquet at Millersport Flowers and pair it with a Valentine’s Day-themed gift basket from Jackie’s Creations, both locally-owned shops in Millersport! Looking for a little more? Enjoy a short drive to the historical village of Somerset, offering unique, small-town shopping such as Gypsy Hawaii Boutique and (Mid) Western Second Hand for quality apparel, accessories, home goods, and more.
4. Donuts, Drinks & Dinner
Morning: Grab a warm cup and brunch from Coffee Shack Coffee Roasters & Cafe on the North Shore and then partake in the sweetest donut date at Dockside Donuts.
Afternoon: Indulge in a scrumptious bite including gourmet burgers, wraps, and desserts, at Horvath’s Harbor or unique sandwiches, tacos, burritos, and more at Chef Shack, paired perfectly with a craft brew from the attached Buckeye Lake Brewery.
Evening: Enjoy the relaxing, southern banks of the lake with a delicious and extensive menu at Buckeye Lake Winery. Afterward, end the night at the new Hereinafter Cocktail Tavern for high-end drinks and a cozy atmosphere.
