Fans of nature and the great outdoors feel right at home at Toledo's Wildwood Preserve Metropark. This is one of the area's most visually stunning examples of a tall-grass prairie and all of the life and beauty that are associated with it. There are plenty of fun activities available here that include a boardwalk, a covered bridge, a 100-year-old schoolhouse and even a hiking trail that leads to the University Parks Trail.

There's nothing quite like the feeling of lighting out on your own boat to fish, get close to nature, and plot your own course at your own pace. Of course, the starting point for such recreation adventures are marinas, and you will find that the Pier 75 Dry Rack Marina offers plenty of excellent amenities that you will need before and after your trip. These include pontoon boats, boat sales, a store that sells fishing licenses, tent sites and more.

Imagination is something you never outgrow, and nowhere is that more obvious than at Toledo's Imagination Station. Formerly COSI, this amazing venue touts the wonders of science in a fun and highly interactive way. The kids will love the many experiments, exhibits and attractions that will draw them into and make them part of various scientific principles, but they will also enjoy some of the special features here like Mindbender Mansion and various summer camp programs. There are also special tour packages available to groups and area schools.
