Coolville invites you to slow the pace without losing access to what matters. Tucked in the rolling hills of Athens County, this village offers small-town ease with quick connections to college-town energy in Athens and riverfront jobs and shopping in Marietta and Belpre. Commuters appreciate straightforward routes along US 50 and State Route 7, while weekend explorers find scenic drives shadowing the Ohio River and quiet country lanes.
Outdoor time comes naturally here. Families cast a line or launch a kayak at nearby waters, then trade shade for shoreline at Forked Run State Park or hike woodland loops at Strouds Run State Park. Wildlife watchers relish sunrise over fields and creek bottoms, and stargazers enjoy dark skies that city dwellers rarely see.
Education anchors the community. Students attend Federal Hocking Local Schools, including the Coolville Elementary campus, known for close-knit classrooms and strong community support. Lifelong learners and remote workers alike rely on the Athens County Public Libraries for high-speed access, programming, and the local branch’s welcoming calendar of events. With modest housing options, generous yards, and a calendar dotted with ballgames, festivals, and farmers’ markets across the region, Coolville offers room to grow without excess fuss.
