About

Departing from The Lodge, enjoy a 4-hour tour of the countryside and take in some lively commentary and rich history from our knowledgeable guide.

Ohio's historic covered bridges offer a wonderful passage into yesteryear. Magical and colorful crossings set against the area's rolling hills and vineyards, Ashtabula County's covered bridges offer a one-of-a-kind look at a bygone era and a great way to "time-travel" during leisurely Ohio excursions all year long.

Detailed information and photos of all covered bridges can be found here: Ashtabula County Covered Bridges. The annual Covered Bridge Festival takes place the second full weekend every October, and is an event not to be missed.

The rest of the year, The Lodge at Geneva on the Lake is the perfect destination to tour Ohio's covered bridges. Ashtabula County is now home to 19 famed covered bridges, each with its own unique history. Make a day of it and see some of the highlights, including the shortest covered bridge in the U.S. to the longest covered bridge in the U.S., measuring 613 ft. in length!
