Miller Lake Docks and Lifts

Miller Lake in Northeast Ohio is one of eight bodies of water known collectively as Portage Lakes.  The lakes located in this area between Akron and Canton were originally a man-made system of reservoirs and channels created in 1825 to supply water for transportation. Today Portage Lakes consists of eight lakes and reservoirs accounting for more than 2,000 acres of water used specifically for recreation during the dog days of summer.  Recreation activities include boating, fishing, and swimming just to name a few.  Miller Lake is under the management of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources.  A boat dock and boat lift are a must when you live on Miller Lake!
