New London Reservoir Park centers on the 221-acre up ground reservoir that the village built in 1975. The reservoir, with a storage capacity of
about 1.4 billion gallons of water, was built as a water
source for the village, but has many other benefits for
the village and the area. Fishing, boating, sail boarding, wind surfing, camping, swimming, 18 hole mini golf, and picnicking, as well as ice fishing (at your own risk) and sledding on the reservoir's sled hill, provide a variety of outdoor activities. There is a Public Golf Course 1/4 mile from campground |

The reservoir has been stocked with a variety of game fish, including largemouth and smallmouth bass, walleyes, bluegills, yellow perch, crappies, by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, and many other varieties including rock bass, green sunfish, bullheads and white suckers have been pumped in from the nearby Vermilion River. Thus, the reservoir, with 2.63 miles of shoreline and a dual boat ramp has become a popular fishing hole. At least two fishing tournaments are held at the reservoir each year. |
