    Mirror lake...makes Buckeye Lake look clean ;)

    Lake? If you count "reservoirs" the closest is Griggs. Take Lane until it dead ends into 33, make a right, about a mile down on your left.

    As for true lakes (Griggs is a dammed stretch of the Scioto River), prolly Hoover or Alum would be the next closest. Griggs is within a few miles of campus...as close as you'll get.

    Antrim Lake is just north of campus on 315. I attend osu and fish it often when i only have a couple hours to get out. Only down side is the large crowds on nice days and their dogs!!! They stock it with trout and I have caught quite a few bass from there. Hope that helps some.
