Harsha Lake’s Visitor Center on Slade Road, where you can get a free permit and directions to the nearby spillway collecting area. The statewide guide also spotlights other Ohio fossil and beach-glass hotspots, but Harsha Lake stands out as a quieter, less crowded option within easy reach of Batavia residents.
