Loveland, OH

Loveland is a Cincinnati-area city along the Little Miami River, with parts in Hamilton, Clermont, and Warren counties. The river is the defining feature, giving the city trail access, canoeing, wooded scenery, and a lively downtown near the Little Miami Scenic Trail. Loveland's old rail and river setting helped shape its compact center, while modern growth ties it to northeast Cincinnati suburbs. It is known for its Valentine-themed local identity, but the everyday appeal is really the river town setting.
