Inside Hotel Breakers: a Cedar Point Resort
Hotel Breakers has opened its doors for the 2015 season sporting a brand new look. I’ve stayed at this 110 year old Cedar Point property on two other occasions and have enjoyed my stay because of the proximity to the park and the spectacular beach views, but always found the interior and rooms in much…
Needle’s Eye: One of Ohio’s Natural Arches
Ohio has more than eighty natural arches recorded, of that number, less than half are accessible to the public. The majority of the rock formations are located in southern Ohio, in Hocking, Highland and Adams counties. A couple of the arches are even found underground in Olentangy Indian Caverns.

A Put-in-Bay Getaway
When people think of Ohio, I can almost guarantee that they don’t think shoreline and islands. I guess that’s one of Ohio’s best kept secrets- though it’s not really a secret since we Buckeyes try to tell everyone how great Ohio really is. I know I try to do my part to convince people they need to come…
