Ohio's first summer resort. A mile of Lake Erie boardwalk since the 1940s.
Geneva-on-the-Lake is Ohio's first summer resort, a mile-long strip of Lake Erie shoreline in Ashtabula County running amusement rides, arcades, and diners that date to the 1940s and 1950s, with Geneva State Park's marina and beach just west.
Geneva-on-the-Lake runs a mile of Lake Erie shoreline in Ashtabula County, billed as Ohio's first summer resort. The Strip mixes amusement rides and arcades with old-guard diners — Eddie's Grill since 1950, Mary's Kitchen since 1946 — that give the town its boardwalk-nostalgia identity. Geneva State Park, just west, adds a 379-slip marina and a 600-foot public beach on Lake Erie's central basin. Geneva proper, a few minutes south, covers the supermarket and a 24-hour hospital ER right in town.
