Ohio State Route 799
State Route 799 (SR 799, OH 799) is an east–west state highway located in the eastern portion of the U.S. state of Ohio. The highway runs from its western terminus at a T-intersection with State Route 800 approximately 1.25 miles (2.01 km) northeast of Freeport to its eastern terminus at its intersection with County Road 60 (Redeye Road) about 3 miles (4.8 km) south of Deersville. Continuing north from State Route 799's eastern terminus is County Road 21 (Mallarnee Road).
State Route 799 was created in the late 1940s. This two-lane spur route was established to improve access to the Clendening Lake region. In addition, it provides an improved route from State Route 800 to the village of Deersville. State Route 799 is designated as a part of the Tappan-Moravian Trail Scenic Byway.
