I don’t know about renting kayaks, but Mohican State Park in Loudonville (near Mansfield) has wonderful canoeing along the Mohican River. Look up some of the canoeing liveries down there and see what they have to say about renting the kayaks.
Have fun!
I would try Mohican, but I don’t know if they kayaks. I know they have canoes. Mohican also has horseback riding and other activities, along with several trails to walk on and waterfalls to look at. When my family went, we stayed at the Mohican Resort (we’re not into the camping bit), but they do have campgrounds. Not to far away is Amish Country (in Holmes County) which is also fun. You can visit the towns and find stores filled with different items, Lehmans (tools, old-fashioned parts, etc.), cheese factories, flea markets, farms, bakeries, and much more!
when i lived in cleveland i camped alot in pennslyvania–some of my favorites were ohiopyle state park–good whitewater rafting/kayaking
another one with more mellow river kayaking but loads of fun is cook forest
–both of these places are only about a couple hours from cleveland(about 3)
