Nestled in the hills of Monroe County, Ohio, Sparkman Lake (approx. 3 acres) sits on 40+ acres of the wooden area directly off State Route 145. We are located between Malaga & Miltonsburg. Sitting just a few miles away from the intersection with State Route 800 in Malaga, Ohio.

Our goal is to offer our community a local place to visit and enjoy themselves, the great outdoors, fishing, pedal boating, and sitting around a campfire. As well as a close option to stay when you visit our wonderful county. We hope to continue providing this service.

Blue Rock is straight out of a woodland fairy tale. Seriously, don’t be surprised if pixies flutter over to help you pitch your tent. Dainty wildflowers dot the forest’s lush undergrowth. Deer, grouse, squirrel and wild turkey are just a few of the creatures that call the park home (and might become your new best friend). Believe it or not, the park’s beauty is, in part, thanks to The Great Depression. Economic woes forced farmers to abandon their lands, which allowed them revert back to dense forest (Thanks, GDP).The waters of Cutler Lake provide ample boating, paddling, fishing and swimming with picnic areas on its shores. There’s a diversity of camping accommodations at Blue Rock, from uber-rustic to downright swanky. No matter where you slumber, don’t be surprised if you wake up sprinkled with a little magic fairy dust.
