Nestled between Toledo and Cleveland, Sandusky, Ohio caters to the shopper and cave explorer alike. The city’s unique limestone architecture and white-sand beaches lured many of its early residents. Once a major stop along the Underground Railroad, Sandusky still contains traces of tracks from another major transporter—the Mad River and Lake Erie Railroad.
Stroll through the past with a visit to the Follett House Museum, catch your dinner straight from Lake Eerie and lose your stomach on Cedar Point amusement park’s giant roller coasters—not necessarily in that order.
