ATWATER, Ohio - Boating and fishing enthusiasts have another spot to launch their boats at Berlin Lake.
The ribbon was cut Thursday, marking the official opening the German Church Road boat ramp at 15988 German Church Road, Atwater.
Berlin Lake is one of the most popular boating and fishing lakes, not only in northeast Ohio, but the entire state, according to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources.
“The new boat launching site provides much needed access for the southwestern end of the lake,” said ODNR Division of Wildlife northeast Ohio Fish Management Supervisor Phil Hillman.
The launch site includes a two-lane, concrete boat ramp, as well as parking for 95 vehicles.
A majority of the spaces will accommodate boat trailers.
The launching facility will provide relief to the heavily-used Bonner Road boat ramp.
The $1.3 million project was funded by the Boater-Angler Fund which comes from a portion of the state sales tax on gasoline received by the ODNR Division of Wildlife.
