Muskingum Lock & Dam 4 State Park
About
Muskingum Lock & Dam 4 State Park is a 21-acre state park in Ohio, sitting about half a mile from the town of Beverly. The state natural resources department manages it as a small, compact stop rather than a large destination. Weather here follows the seasons of southeastern Ohio. Typical averages from a nearby station in Beverly put summer highs in the low to mid 80s, peaking around 85°F in July with lows near 64°F. Spring warms from highs around 52°F in March to 74°F in May, and fall cools from about 78°F in September to 54°F in November. September and October tend to be the driest months, with roughly nine to ten wet days each, while May is the wettest at about 14. Winters are cold, with January highs near 38°F and lows around 21°F. For more time outdoors, the Buckeye Trail section near Stockport lies about 6 miles away for hiking, and Olive Green Creek, roughly 7 miles off, offers canoeing.
