Why Toledo is a shithole

[MikeyA]

Have you ever been to Maumee Bay? It opened in I thiiink 1991. For the first like 10 years of my life my family would go there at least once a year. Great memories.

Yes I have. The crappie fishing is really good in the campground out there.

Unfortunately it's not recommended that you swim in the beaches there. Most don't know the the Great Lakes tend to "drain" and for Lake Erie it leans to the south. Maumee Bay being upcurrent from the Toledo Water Dept. means the current brings the wash right past Maumee Bay. In years of light rain it's not recommended to swim there.

But as far as the rest of the park is concerned it's very beautiful. The golf course there is awesome too. I've actually recommended to several Marines to stay there.

Camp Perry (a Nat. Guard base) is home to an awesome range because the SDZ (area where bullet's riccochet to the layman) is mostly in Lake Erie. Because of that and the winds they hold the National Rifle Competitions there. Maumee Bay is about 15-20 mins of an easy drive to the Camp.

Although when I go to Lake Erie I primarily like to stay in Port Clinton, a beautiful town. Across the bay is Put-in-Bay which is a nonstop party from May to Sept.
