Mary Jane Thurston State Park can be found in northwestern Ohio, not far from the Ohio - Michigan border and the Ohio cities of Toledo, Bowling Green, and Napoleon. The 591-acre park was named after Mary Jane Thurston, a school teacher from Grand Rapids, Michigan, who bequeathed land for the building of the park. Stradling the southern banks of the Maumee River, Mary Jane Thurston State Park is a riverside recreational paradise, with fishing, boating, and swimming being the staple pastimes here. This idyllic location, combined with its closeness to many major north Ohio cities, makes Mary Jane Thurston State Park a great place to take an RV rental. Accessing the park with a rental RV is made even easier with Highway 24 running along the northern fringes of the park.
