At the Peak of it ALL!

As a business owner, you come across some extreme opportunities, meet extroidanary people and build some ultimate relationships but I think it's what lies within yourself that brings those highlights to life. What lies within yourself comes alive because of your upbringing, your surroudings and your support system. All of which equal YOUR COMMUNITY!

With in Logan County, you have so many beautiful natural resources, lots of fantastic history and phenomeal support to build a foundation on. Have you recently had the pleasure to experience Campbell Hill, the highest point in Ohio at an elevation of 1549.09 feet?  If not, you really should consider the venture.

The foundation of Campbell High exists at the Ohio Hi-Point Career Center, which was at one time the location for the 664th Aircraft Control and Warning Squadron during the Cold War. Both sites are identified with historical markers, open to the public from dawn to dusk and a free attraction right here in YOUR COMMUNITY!

The hike to the summit is fairly easy and handicap accessible - similar to Indian Lake Outfitters, your outdoor retail connection for hunting, fishing, camping, archery and marine...Indian Lake Outfitters - Release YOUR inner outdoors right here in YOUR COMMUNITY and be AT THE PEAK OF IT ALL!

Archery Rental with the Boneheaded Tourist at Indian Lake

Indian Lake is the perfect vacation or relocation destination for lots of obvious reasons - the scenery, state parks, unique dining options, 5800 acres of water, 27 miles of shoreline AND INDIAN LAKE OUTFITTERS!! That's right, Indian Lake Outfitters, your retail connection for hunting, fishing, camping, archery and marine; just two blocks from the spillway.

We had the opportunity to entertain Ohio Traveler's Boneheaded Tourist for a few days. The Boneheaded Tourist, also referred to as BT, is a puppet created by Frank Satullo of Ohio Traveler for the purpose of highlighting tourism throughout Ohio. The Logan County Convention and Tourist Bureau hosted BT for his vacation in Logan County. During his week long stay, they brought him to Indian Lake and made a stop at Indian Lake Outfitters to check out the shop and test BT's archery ability.

As you know, we at Indian Lake Outfitters have an outdoor retail shop but we also opened an indoor archery range in November of 2010. The range is climate controlled for comfortable shooting year round, has enough space for up to 8 shooters at one time and offers a 20 yard shot into state of the art 4x4 Block targets. The beauty of the addition to Indian Lake Outfitters is that it doesn't matter if you're a first time archer or experienced pro, we have the knowledge and equipment to assist you with our complete line of shop tools, bow press and archery rental equipment.

Because BT was a first time archer and traveling the county, he didn't have any equipment. NOT A PROBLEM!! Our rental bow program includes all the necessary accessories needed to try the sport and participate regardless of skill level. We even offer instruction and assistance. So, when you're planning your next trip in the area whether it be business or pleasure and you're looking for something unique to do, stop into Indian Lake Outfitters and enjoy some time in our Indoor Archery Range. We can offer rental equipment that includes range time or you're always welcome to bring your own equipment and purchase range time for as little as 30 minutes, by the hour or we offer annual memberships that allow you to shoot at your convenience.

We enjoyed having the Boneheaded Tourist and hope to see you enjoy the same experience at Indian Lake Outfitters where you can release your inner outdoors!
