About the Business
Shawnee Lookout, located at 2008 Lawrenceburg Road in North Bend, Ohio, is a popular park and tourist attraction known for its historical Springhouse School, Log Cabin, and Native American archaeological earthworks. Visitors can explore the park's nature trails, including the Blue Jacket, Little Turtle, and Miami Fort trails, which offer stunning views of the Ohio River and Great Miami River valleys. The park also features picnic areas, a playground, and boat access to the Great Miami River.
The Log Cabin, built between 1795-1805, and the Springhouse, built in 1785-86, were both relocated to Shawnee Lookout in the 1970s. The park's former golf cart paths are open for biking, hiking, and strolling, providing a unique way to experience the natural beauty of the area. Additionally, the Ulmansiek Wildlife Sanctuary, a 263-acre riparian habitat along the Great Miami River, is home to a variety of migratory waterfowl.
Visitors must have a valid Motor Vehicle Permit to enter the park, where they can enjoy the rich history, beautiful scenery, and abundant wildlife that Shawnee Lookout has to offer.

Reviews
"“Enjoy don’t destroy” but all the bushes are drove right through. Sad use to love seeing the bunnies and all the wildlife come out. They are now destroying the wildlife, not preserving it. Sad world we live in now n days. really disappointed in this, the wildlife had an home there. And the rangers are really suspicious always following you if you drive around the park."
"The trail was pretty in the woods. The "field" was created for the power lines. We hiked the Lookout trail, which boast an overlook of the river...well, maybe 30 years ago. It's over grown. It was a nice mile hike. The trail was wide and well kept. It was a great place for birding. The park is pet friendly, we brought our leashed dog. There are picnic benches, areas to reserve for large gatherings, bathrooms and a small playground. There is handicapped parking, but the trails are not handicapped friendly."
"Lovely little trails. I only wish they were better managed. The climax of the trail is supposed to be the lookout spots. These spots are overgrown with bushes and trees on both the blue jacket and little turtle trails. Still good trails though. My three year old can do them (with a little sit on daddy's shoulder time) and has fun."
"Lots of awesome trails with amazing views. The "boat ramp" however is much to be desired. . . Even after a good rain, it was just a shallow mud pit. I would recommend taking the trail and dragging your boat or plan a different take out."
"A lovely hiking spot with great history! There are like four different routes, each one takes between 1-2 hours to finish and are easy to do. The best part is the nature and wildlife you can see if you pay attention! It's a very calming place with good energy all around if you're looking to escape from the city for a little bit."
