The UPS Store

While it may be true that history is all around us, sometimes you have to travel a bit to get to it. That is the case with Sauder Farm and Craft Village. Located about an hour's drive outside of Toledo, this historical attraction vividly demonstrates what rural life was like in Ohio back in the 1800s. Visit a blacksmith, a potter, and a general store as well as a popular quilt shop. There are also many historic homes and picturesque gardens that you can stroll through. And, if you get hungry, enjoy a delicious meal at the nearby Barn Restaurant.

Rev it up in a fun Alexis go-kart, play a challenging round of miniature golf, swing around in the batting cages or get jolted as you steer your bumper car around at the popular Par 2 Golf Courses. This is a great family fun recreation destination that offers not only an excellent choice of fun activities, but also a generous concession area as well as place for parents to comfortably wait for the kids to finish their trek on the go-kart or bumper car tracks.

Both train enthusiasts as well as fans of travel and history will enjoy a visit to the Toledo and Lake Erie Western Railway and Museum. Located in Waterville, this experience is most definitely worth the extra travel time, as traveling is one of the site's main attractions. Get on board the Blue Bird for a 60-minute 15 mile ride around northwest Ohio. This is a unique train tour that will delight the entire family.
