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.

The whole family will go wild for the wildlife that you will encounter at the Toledo Zoo. The attraction has the distinction of being the country's most complete zoo, meaning that the animals that are kept here in their natural habitats most represent the many species found in the natural environment. See favorites like hippos, giraffes, polar bears, tigers, lions, monkeys and many more. There are also various seasonal events held here as well as an impressive summer concert series.

The Toledo Botanical Garden is a benchmark against which similar gardens are measured throughout the country, and with good reason. This is considered to be one of the pioneering gardens because of its dramatically beautiful visual and natural presentation. Fragrant meadows of sunflowers and wildflowers, rose gardens, herb gardens and sharply manicured walkways make spending time here something special for the entire family. Also, the kids will especially love visiting the recreated pioneer garden which many consider to be one of the site's main attractions.

Doc Watson's always seems to attract an interesting and attractive cross-section of patrons. There are young professionals, college kids and lovers of great live music. All of these patrons convene here regularly to enjoy a beer and live music nearly every night. The stage is always featuring performers who deliver everything from blues to acoustic rock, and when the band takes a break, there is an impressively-stocked jukebox that keeps the mood up in this highly appealing nightlife venue.
