There is also a playground, basketball court, soccer field, and grass filled baseball diamond. Nothing fancy, but the grounds seem to be well kept, although probably not highly used. There are a couple parking spots, a picnic shelter and a restroom. My only disappointment was that the water fountain did not work. Typical park rules like open from dawn to dusk, pets on a leash, pick up your dog poo, and no alcohol. I would definitely visit this park again, especially if I'm looking for a quiet place to walk.

Reviewing the playground:…read more I love that the ground has that soft material and not wood chips. The playground has a huge umbrella in the middle with a conveniently placed bench. There is a big kids and little kids jungle gym. This playground is very clean. Nice families around. Plenty of shaded tables and benches. We visited OH and stopped here to tire the kiddos.

Madison Park is where the rough kids who went to Emerson Middle School (Steve L.) hung out in the 90's. I saw Big Chuck and Little John play celebrity softball in the park. There is a decent community pool complete with a slide for thrill seekers. There is a lot of chatter around town about Gordon Square, North Collinwood, Ohio City and other neighborhoods getting hip. I hope that Birdtown in Lakewood can make the same transition. Madison Park serves as the anchor.

I'm not from the area and I only came here once at the end of September, so this review could be a bit biased as when I visited the park, there were only a few people. For children, there is much to do. -Most impressive is the rope course which is seasonally operated. The one hour rope course session is free to Geauga County Residents but a $20 fee applies to non-Geauga residents. Unfortunately because I visited in the off season, I was not able to see the course in operation. From the looks of it, a variety of platforms are about 30 or-so-feet with a variety of different obstacles. Upon completion there is a 100ft long zip-line the brings you back down. - A one way only "pump track" is also located in the park and is free to use. For those who may not know, pumping is a technique used by mountain bikers to navigate without pedaling. The trail is 2,025 feet long. - There is a bouldering wall that is 12 feet high and plenty of surface area to try a navigate it completely around. There is also a smaller playground for smaller children that has a canoe sand box and a faux wood log tunnel. Two man made ponds are in the park and are stocked with fish, large mouth bass and Bluegill. A few platforms with benches are located around the ponds. There are 3 trails at this park. There is the White Tail Trail which is of asphalt and is 0.6 miles long, great for those with strollers or wheelchairs. The Drake Trail is 0.5 miles long and is made up of gravel. The Tree Trapper Trail is 1.1 miles long and is made up of gravel. There is a lodge that can be reserved in advanced for private events. It has wifi, Max capacity for 99 people. Eight conference-sized tables with seating for 64 (dining chairs with backs), three high-top/serving tables with seating for 12 (stools, no backs), and two lounge chairs with a coffee table in front of the fireplace. Restrooms are also available with water, refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker, sink and ample counter space with outlets. Although there is no cooking inside, a grill is located right behind the Lodge. I think the reservation pricing may vary but a quick look on the website has the following prices on their reservation page; Out-of-County Fee: $90.00-Geauga County Resident Fee:$55.00- Seasonal Surcharge: $ 10.00. All in all I am fairly impressed with this family orientated park.

Euclid Creek Reservation is one of the smaller parks in the Metroparks system; it is a long…read morerelatively narrow park that mainly follows Euclid Creek between Green Road and Highland Road. The park manages to pack quite a bit into its smaller profile. For those trying to get out and get a hike there are 4 designated trails and a couple more that are not on the map but can still be fun. The longest trail is the Multipurpose trail, paved it winds its way down the park with great views of the creek and the surrounding walls of gorge it has carved. On the West Side of the park the Glenridge and Squirrel Run Trails let you hike up and down the gorge wall and you can use them to form a loop trail; a good way to get some decent vertical and a nice workout. On the East Side there is the newly built Eastern Ledge Trail which uses a recently built bridge to cross the creek and then a steep hill up to the cliff top which presents one of the best views in the Cleveland area. The trail then continues through the woods to the nearby neighborhood. There is an couple of other trails on the East Side of the creek, one that runs from the Rear Quarry picnic area to hook up with the Eastern Ledge Trail; the other unmarked trail starts at the Highland Picnic area and follows the creek until it gets to the cliff face. There are a number of very nice picnic areas along the park with plenty of space to relax, eat and play. There are also a number of other facilities. Near the Kelley picnic area there is a sledding hill for winter fun. Most of the picnic areas have a playground with the biggest one is located in the Highland Picnic Area and there is also outdoor workout stations and a couple of basketball courts which always seem to have some fairly serious games when the weather is good. Although they are physically separated from the main part of the park Metroparks have added the beaches and marina located where Euclid Creek meets Lake Erie into the Euclid Creek Reservation. I have not visited these areas in quite a while, but they do provide public access to Lake Erie for swimming, boating and beach fun. Euclid Creek Reservation is a great way for those located on the East Side to get out and enjoy themselves. The Metroparks keep working to improve the parks and there is plenty of fun to be had; choose an activity or two and get outside.

The "Euclid Creek Reservation" (Euclid Beach) is no exception. The park is expansive, beautifully manicured, clean and offers a multitude of ecosystems to explore. The beaches are wonderful and include matting to accommodate wheelchair access. There are two peers for sitting and enjoying the lake view or casting in a line and going fishing. There are picnic areas with grills and a pavilion as well as public restrooms. There is a bridge connecting it to Neff road boat launch as well as Wildwood Park. There really is something for everyone. The best thing is it is open to ALL the public and totally FREE! So go, take the family and spend the day. You'll love it.
