Mary Jane Thurston State Park
Mary Jane Thurston State Park, State park and nature reserve in Wood County, Ohio, United States.
Mary Jane Thurston State Park extends across 105 acres along the Maumee River, featuring forested areas and waterfront landscapes for outdoor activities.
The park originated from a 14-acre land donation by local schoolteacher Mary Jane Thurston in 1928, with additional acquisitions over four decades.
The Maumee Valley area holds connections to Native American communities and represents the transformation of the Great Black Swamp region.
The park provides facilities for camping, boating, hunting, and fishing, with access points along the Maumee River for various water activities.
A one-mile section of the Buckeye Trail passes through the park, offering opportunities to spot white-tailed deer and northern pike.
