Located on the shores of the Maumee River just 19 miles southwest of Toledo, Waterville is a small town that’s full of charm and a welcoming community. There’s a variety of parks that liven up the area, two of which provide walking trails along the river. Waterville’s highly lauded school system and low crime rate make it a hotspot for families or those looking to leave the bustle of the big city.
Grab a bite to eat at a local spot like Dale’s Diner or Cocina De Carlos. The city also comes together for annual celebrations like the Roche de Boeuf Festival in September. Vendors line the streets, and everyone gathers for the parade and car show that take over the town.
