OW swim locations near Medina??

[mvsnider]

For the last couple years I've done almost of all of my swim training in the pool. I've not been able to make the group swims at Columbia Park or Monroe Falls because of my schedule. Does anyone know of good locations for OW swim near Medina?

I'm in Medina too and have not found a local spot. I once tried swimming in Hinckley Lake and people in canoes and kayaks kept coming over to rescue me. I wouldn't recommend it.

Up until recently I have done most of my OW swims at Monroe Falls. But last week I ventured to Columbia and found that the drive from there is about the same time as Munroe Falls. So I will probably head to Columbia for the rest of the summer.

If you find a place, please let me know.

Have you tried Silver Creek - south on Hametown Road - similar to Munroe Falls in the sense that the swim area is about 100 yds long -
