ABOUT THE RESERVOIR
Completed in 1939, the Mogadore Reservoir is located between Brimfield and Suffield, Ohio in Portage County and was formed from the damming of the Little Cuyahoga River.
The reservoir was originally created to supply additional water to Akron industries downstream but now serves mostly recreational and flood protection purposes.
​
The reservoir offers spectacular views of nature year round, and is home to many species of bird, fish and wildlife. This makes it a great destination for recreational activities. For your convenience, in addition to watercraft rentals, the boathouse sells a variety of live bait, fishing tackle, cold drinks and snacks. While visiting the boathouse be sure to enjoy the surrounding picnic area, fishing pier and Buckeye Trail.
