What is considered the "Western Reserve" section of Ohio, just west of the eastern suburbs of Cleveland is a gorgeous spot for getting away from a busy tourist atmosphere.

Several state parks are also housed among the three counties that make up the reserve, including Punderson, West Branch and Pymatuning State Parks.
