The shoreline, town by town
Lakefront communities across NE Ohio's Lake Erie shore
Northeast Ohio's Lake Erie shoreline runs from the resort villages of the west side to the big beaches of Lake County and Ashtabula. Each town owns a different piece of the lake's character, from Vermilion's lagoon district to Mentor's natural beach. These guides cover what each one is like to live in, what it costs, and how the schools and commute work.
