Nine Muskingum lakes offer rustic weekend getaways
Readers seek campsites near eastern Ohio lakes for a quiet weekend escape within 200 miles of Cincinnati. The Muskingum Conservancy District features Atwood Leesville Tappan Clendening Piedmont Senecaville Burr Oak Charles Mill and Pleasant Hill lakes with ample boat ramps and camp sites. Reports mention record muskellunge caught at Leesville and frequent catches of bass and pike across the lakes. A new boating rule requires a two foot square orange distress flag and running lights from sunset to sunrise, plus a crackdown on littering in watercourses.
