Very easy hike. You can also bring a picnic basket. There is seating on rocks very peaceful.

Waterfall

Buttermilk Falls Park is a cute little stop off the freeway. You can park and picnic at the tables provided, or walk the trails down to the falls for a different view. Beautiful spot! I can't believe how many times I have driven by and didn't stop! I had no clue how close the falls are to the freeway!

Main waterfall

Super easy hike along a creek with a few small waterfalls ending in a larger waterfall and swimming hole. There is quite a lot of broken glass in certain areas, so be sure to wear shoes with a thick bottom. I have seen an increase of people in COVID, but you're still able to distantly enjoy the falls.

This place is such a hidden gem! Definitely worth a stop if you're in the area. There is a small parking area right off the road at the head of the trail. You can hear the waterfall as soon as you get out of your car. It's a short peaceful shady walk to the falls. There were a couple of people there that laid towels out on the rocks and went swimming. We will definitely be back in the future.

Great place to hike, swim, you can even jump off the waterfall into the water if you like it's beautiful and worth going to see.

This is a beautiful place unfortunately people have trashed the area around the falls and I don't feel it's safe anymore.

Graham Park - Right of way etiquette rules

Graham Park is a wonderful park for everyone. Courts and fields for various sports (including a…read moreMiracle League field). Playgrounds for kids. Concession stands and bathrooms. Trails for walking/hiking/running. Plenty of parking. Park is well maintained. I like going here for a good walk or run. The park is big enough that if you go from one end to the other it's around 3 miles. The paths are paved and there are a few different paths you can take to loop around but don't miss the Brush Creek Trail. It's a short hike with info on the local ecosystem along the way. There are a few inclines but no crazy elevation. Would also be a good place for a bike ride though I haven't done that yet. Graham Park is one of my favorite go-to parks when I'm near Cranberry and looking for an easy change of scenery from my local park. It can be crowded when there are sporting events but everyone I've encountered has been friendly. I'd recommend taking advantage of this great community park.

I have been taking advantage of this park from before they were finished building it. Be aware NO…read morePETS (unfortunately) because of all the sports fields & courts: baseball, football, soccer, lacrosse, hockey, tennis, pickle ball, basketball. There is a paved 3+ mile walking path (relatively flat) that spans the park. Lots of parking. Kids playground. Miracle League handicapped accessible ball field. A catch & release pond. Flower garden. Brush Creek runs through it. Three body weight exercise stations. Too bad the coffee shop at the entrance was ahead of its time & closed! Great park! Very clean.

Visited this state park for the first time earlier this month and had a blast!…read more I parked at what I think is the main lot, up above the mill itself. I didn't take a tour of the mill (which the park volunteers and staff do offer throughout the day) but I did walk through it and read the information in it about the history of the mill. Definitely enjoyed exploring and learning. That said, I was really there for the trails, so I spent most of my day hiking. I took a loop trail down from the mill and back (with a detour up a short trail to some falls) and it was great! I love being outside and I love a good challenge; these trails were not paved or even at all and I had a great workout navigating them. During hydration breaks I'd find a nice rock to sit on by the water, which was wonderful. It was noisy as heck by the mill because of the families, but the further out I got the more peaceful it got. Definitely met my goal of unplugging for a day during my trek on the trails. I want to come back in the future and begin to try to walk the Slippery Gorge Trail, as it sounds like the gorge is another beautiful part of the park. But that is definitely a long term goal, because that trail is not a short one! I loved visiting this park and I'd be back for sure. To everyone else, PLEASE remember water and wear the proper footwear - while I enjoyed my walk in the park, these trails are definitely not a walk in the park!

Visited this state park and it was beautiful! I couldn't stop taking pictures. Very peaceful and…read morequiet

Taking him there has gotten him on a more social level than just running around our yard. Also I can walk him around the park and let him be as active as he should be. Thank you for making a special place for our furry friends. They deserve it! Jade's Dog Park is truly a blessing for all dog parents . Thank you very much for caring about the special creatures in our lives

My husband and I came here for the day and were pleasantly surprised…read more It is $5 per person to get in. Food They have a snack bar with the typical food you would expect (hotdogs, nachos, pretzels, popcorn) you can purchase a cup and/or a popcorn bucket for $5 a piece and get refills all summer for $1. Pool The pool is amazing! Perfect place to bring children with two kids areas. The have a small rock climbing wall in the deep end by the diving boards. Three slides, one of which is very tall. Children 12 and under can take a swim test to be allowed to swim in the deep end and go on the diving boards and rock climbing wall. You are allowed to bring floating things like noodles etc. which was really nice. You can only bring goggles that don't have the nose part (scuba goggles?) regular goggles are okay. The deep end is 5ft and the diving area is 12ft. I believe I saw that they rent out life vests for children and they also sell swimming diapers. Adult Swim Depending on how you feel about this it will either be good or bad. At the start of every hour they make all of the children get out of the pool for 15 minutes. The only people allowed in the pool are adults and children under 5 who are accompanied by an adult within arms reach. Seating They have chairs that you can use with foot rests and little tables but you have to get here pretty early to get one unless you see someone leaving you can take theirs. I would recommend bringing chairs and blankets to sit and relax on. There is plenty of space to spread out and not be right next to someone else on the grass. They have a few covered areas that you can set up at if there is space left. They also have 2 covered picnic table areas with 4 picnic tables (although I'm sure those fill up fast) Parks We don't have children so we didn't go to the parks but it looked like there was a lot to do and that it was well maintained. Crowds We went on a Sunday and there were a lot of people there but it didn't feel "crowded". We had to wait in line to get snacks but when we wanted a drink or popcorn refill there was a separate line which was nice. Conclusion- we will defiantly be back it was a great day!
