Imagine a romantic night spent floating in the moonlight down one of Ohio’s most scenic rivers. This may sound like a dream, but it’s very much a reality at this incredible canoe livery near Cleveland. Pack some bug spray and water shoes, because this adventure might have you splish-splashing under the stars.
Is there anything more romantic than an evening under the stars?

This summer, you can also experience a romantic float under the stars from the comfort of your very own canoe.
Sarah B/TripAdvisor In the lovely expanse of Mohican Country, you’ll find the modest but long-standing Loudonville Canoe Livery. The livery offers the pre-planned canoeing adventures anywhere immediately south of Cleveland.
One of their moonlight adventures will take you along 23 miles of the winding Mohican River.

On this epic adventure, you’ll enjoy a lazy float followed by primitive camping at Greer Landing.

The stunning Mohican State Scenic River carves through some splendid scenery, so you’ll want to keep your eyes peeled for native Ohio wildlife along the shore.

You can also enjoy the very same stars on this year’s eagerly anticipated Moonlight Canoe Trip, a shorter nighttime adventure.
-ted/Flickr The Moonlight Canoe Trip takes place each August. It will lead you on a two hour long adventure (give or take… your timing is at the mercy of the currents) along the Mohican River. Flashlights are recommended on this seven-mile trip.
If these one night-long trips under the stars leave you longing for more, perhaps you’d consider a three-day trip.
