Reno Beach, OH

Reno Beach is a small waterfront community along the southwestern shore of Lake Erie, located in Jerusalem Township just east of Toledo. The area brings together several quiet lakeside neighborhoods, including Lakeland and Howard Farms Beach, where daily routines revolve around the water. Boating and fishing are big parts of life here, with backyard canals and local marinas offering easy access straight out onto the lake.

Originally developed as a bustling summer getaway with dance halls and a golf course in the early 1900s, the community has settled into a mix of year-round houses and seasonal cottages. Residents have scenic wetlands right in their backyard at Howard Marsh Metropark, a favorite local spot for kayaking and birdwatching. Between the peaceful canals and the open water, Reno Beach offers a relaxed, tight-knit setting for anyone looking to live right on Lake Erie.
