What is a halfway spot between Cleveland, Ohio and Chicago?

I believe it is about 5 hour to Chicago from Cleveland, so I guess a place that is about 2.5 hours is what I'm looking for. Thanks.What is a halfway spot between Cleveland, Ohio and Chicago?
If you plan on taking the Ohio/Indiana Turnpike, at Interstate 69 (in Indiana) would be a good place that is halfway. There should be restaurants and hotels around that area. Some towns that are close are Nevada Mills, Lake James, Glen Eden, Crooked Lake, and Angola.
If your looking for a big city then Toledo, Ohio is probably the best option. It will have all the hotels and restaurants you need if you are just looking for a place to stay the night. Its probably a little closer to Cleveland than Chicago. Maumee Bay is a nice state park on the way close to Toledo, and it has a good hotel.



The true halfway point is somewhere near the Ohio/Indiana border. This area is very rural and other than your fast food joints and motels you won't find much there.What is a halfway spot between Cleveland, Ohio and Chicago?
It's a bit longer to go from Cleveland to Chicago than five hours, if you stop and get something to eat it'll probably take you about seven. As I recall, there's really nothing at the "halfway" point. Toledo is maybe two hours into the drive. There's a GREAT German/Mexican restaurant in Toledo, on Summit Dr. off of 280. If you're looking for something to do besides eat though, there's not much in Toledo.



If that's too early, the quickest way to Chicago will take you on the Indiana turnpike anyway. There's about a dozen turnpike plazas with different kinds of fast food %26amp; even a sit-down restaurant at some. Those are probably your best bet besides Toledo.
I'd suggest you go to Yahoo Maps and enter both the Clevalnd and Chicago addresses and then decide what's halfway between the 2. For example, if you're starting from the SW side of Cleveland but going to the NW side of Chicago, the drive time will be alot different than if you're starting from the far east side of Cleveland (like Willoughby vs. Hopkins airport area).
