Step back in time on a guided, historic tour around the shores of Buckeye Lake. Its unique history includes its legacy as the first State Park in Ohio 1847, the home of The Buckeye Lake Amusement Park and all the glory it created, as well as playing an important role in the Ohio Canals. As the only Sternwheeler on any inland lake in Ohio, the Queen of the Lake III can accommodate up to 40 people on public and private tours and events. She has an on-board restroom and catering is available. This was a five-year restoration project completed by volunteers working with the Buckeye Lake Historical Society.

This two hour tour cruises the historic shoreline of Buckeye Lake narrated by a local historian. The boat has an upper and lower deck, Wi-Fi, restroom, and is manual wheelchair accessible. In good weather, the boat will leave the dock promptly at the time for which you register.
