Things to Do & Local Highlights
Perrysville’s strongest lifestyle advantage is its access to outdoor recreation. Pleasant Hill Lake is an 850-acre lake surrounded by 1,350 acres of land, offering boating, fishing, swimming, camping, hiking, hunting, picnicking, and kayaking.
That gives Perrysville a distinct identity compared with other Ashland County villages: it feels quiet and residential, but it sits close to destination-level recreation. For custom-home buyers, that creates a strong opportunity to build around outdoor living, wooded views, weekend recreation, and a more relaxed everyday lifestyle.
