Sometimes, you just need to float away from life’s troubles for a little while.
Tubing down a scenic, natural lazy river is a great way to embrace a summer day and get in some quality relaxation time. What just might be the best lazy river in Ohio to tube down is the Little Miami River in Oregonia, Ohio. While you can do more than tube along this river, tubing is the most relaxing, stress-free way to enjoy this gorgeous little gem.
Take a look:
The Little Miami Canoe Rental has two locations along the river. To go tubing, you’ll want to visit the Oregonia location.
Little Miami Canoe Rental/Facebook Address: 225 Corwin Road, Oregonia, OH, 45054 (If you’re traveling from I-71, take Exit 36 to Wilmington Road.)
Out on the water, you’ll feel at peace taking in the sights, sounds and smells of this beautiful 111-mile river, which stretches across several counties in southwestern Ohio.
Little Miami Canoe Rental/Facebook Please note: Hours of operation for the canoe rental vary by weather and season. Be sure to always call ahead before arriving.
Take the 2-mile tube trip and let the river’s current do all the work. You just sit back, relax and enjoy the view.

And if you’re up for something more adventurous, you can always rent a kayak or canoe to take down the river.
