Van Buren State Park is located in Hancock County near Findlay, an hour drive south of Toledo.
This park offers a peaceful lake and woodlands amid a landscape dominated by the agricultural fields of northwest Ohio.

Scenic picnic areas have tables and grills, along with reservable shelterhouses.

Fishing for bass, catfish, crappie, bullhead and bluegill is enjoyed from shore or the lake. Bow hunting only is permitted in designated areas. A valid Ohio fishing and/or hunting license is required.
