West Milton, OH Area Guide
Just a short drive up Route 48 from Dayton lies a village with rolling hills, rich farmland and its own waterfall, named West Milton. Small and picturesque, growth of West Milton has been slow but steady through the years. When you come into town, remember The Cascades waterfall are a favorite of both residents and visitors, so don’t miss it at the corner of State Route 571 and State Route 48.
West Milton, OH History
Early settlers came to the area in the 18th century, eventually naming their new home after the poet John Milton, but a possible conflict with another town prompted a name change to West Milton, and it became incorporated in 1834.
A rail line opening to Dayton in the early 1900’s spurred new interest in West Milton and Overlook Park became a must see for visitors, becoming the place for band shows, picnics and getaways.
Get away from the hustle and bustle of Dayton and come feel the small town ambience of West Milton!
