How far away is the grocery store and gas stations?
Both Mount Gilead and Galion are less than 15 minutes away. Within both of these towns you will find nationally known grocery stores and gas stations. During the summer season, you will find local farmers selling fresh fruit and vegetables along the road ways. There is also a convenience store located just a minute away on county road 40. It is south of the damn and on the same side as the RV park. See the Candlewood Lake map for the location.

Due to liability and insurance costs, there is not a marina with gas for boats on the lake.

What are the rules for boats?
There is an unlimited horse power limit for speed boats with a 40mph speed limit and 20 foot length limit. Pontoon boats are limited to a 40hp engine size, 26 feet in length and are not permitted to pull tubes or skiers. Jet ski's, cutty cabins and houseboats are not permitted. Only boats registered to property owners are permitted on the lake. For full details on boat requirements, please see the Candlewood Lake Handbook.

Where can I find Boat Maintenance & Storage?
A local mechanic that services both cars and boats is located on county road 40 just across from the damn. In addition, there are other boat services located in Marion, and Ontario. The fish and boat club each year have a weekend or two in which you can have your pontoon boat pulled out of the lake and parked in the parking lot next to the north docks. There are also several self storage facilities located within minutes of Candlewood.

During the boating season, those that do not live on the lake can rent a dock within one of the two common dock areas from the main office. Contact the office at 419-947-1138 for cost and availability.
