About This Home

As of June 2025

Welcome to 26 Forest Ave in beautiful Lake Milton! This charming 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home was completely updated in 2019 and is move-in ready. Whether you’re looking for the perfect summer retreat, a short-term rental opportunity, or a cozy year-round residence, this property checks all the boxes.

Enjoy morning coffee on the porch, relax after a day on the lake, or entertain guests in the modern, open living space. Located just moments from the water, restaurants, and recreation, this home delivers the laid-back lake lifestyle you’ve been dreaming of.

Don't miss your chance to own a slice of Lake Milton paradise—this one won’t last long!

Lake Milton in Ohio is a hidden gem for outdoor lovers and laid-back lake life seekers. Here’s what makes it stand out:
Recreation Galore – Lake Milton State Park offers boating, jet skiing, kayaking, and swimming. The lake is large and calm enough for water sports, yet relaxed enough for peaceful fishing and sunset cruises.
Fishing Paradise – Anglers love it here for the abundance of walleye, bass, and crappie. The lake is stocked and well-maintained, making it a consistent favorite among Ohio Game Fishing community members.
Charming Vibe – Lake Milton isn’t over-commercialized. It keeps a quaint, small-town feel with a few local eateries and quiet neighborhoods. That balance of natural beauty and convenience is hard to beat.
All-Season Appeal – While it's a go-to summer destination, the park also features hiking trails and picnicking areas that make it enjoyable spring through fall.
Bottom line: If you're looking for an Ohio lake town that’s just the right mix of fun and chill, Lake Milton hits the mark.
