A lot of cool restaurants and shops are here. Many cater to bicyclists. They offer discounts on food and stuff. It's the centerpiece of downtown Loveland. The bathrooms are pretty clean, and there's plenty of areas for pets. A lot of convenient things if you're on a bike. If you're in a car it's harder. There's parking lots but these get filled up especially on weekends.

I love this park!! Just wish it was closer to home. I enjoy running or biking from this location…read more There are restrooms and water fountains. Also, there's a place where you can add air to your bike tires if you need it. The parking is easy if you get there early. Go about 4 miles north, and there's another restroom with water fountains. The bike trail is well maintained, and returning to the park surrounded by coffee places, restaurants, and shops makes it even better!

I have such a great experience here always. This park truly has a little bit of everything, and…read moreit's one of those parks that is welcoming for all ages. One of my favorite parts was the nature center. The staff and naturalists were incredibly kind and helpful, and the space itself is really well done. There's a cute gift shop, educational displays, and even a small children's museum feel with a few live animals to see. It's a great spot to learn something new or play around. Outside, the park is incredible. The trails are extremely well maintained, both the wooded paths and the paved ones, making it perfect for an easy walk or a hike. There's also an outdoor fitness trail that I loved. It has different workout stations along the way, and it's actually really fun, not just functional. It's a great way for both kids and adults to be active. There's also a huge playground and a mini water park area for kids, plus accessible bathrooms and good seasonal amenities. It's very family friendly without feeling overcrowded. If you're into disc golf, this place is a gem. There's a large disc golf course, and they even sell discs and gear right inside the nature center. Another thing worth mentioning is how amazing Great Parks of Hamilton County is overall. They offer so many programs like beginner fishing, guided hikes, plant swaps, art workshops, amphibian hunts, and even owl pellet dissections. Not all of these are specific to this park, but many are hosted here, and it really adds to how special the experience is. Overall, this is an extremely pleasant place to spend time. Whether you're walking the trails, working out, bringing kids to play, or just exploring the nature center, there's something for everyone.

For the little ones, there's a splash park in season (check for cost) with a snack bar. Frisbee golf, nature center, shelter rentals, very clean bathrooms and other amenities available. You will need a parks pass to get in but the yearly rate is worth it and gets you in to all the parks in Anderson Township.

Daniel Drake Park is a good medium size of a park. It's located off of Red Bank Road. There's a…read moregood amount of parking areas there. It features a few observation areas. There's also a pavilion for picnics. It looks like it's kept pretty clean. It's not the most exciting place but it's enjoyable. There's a few hills and paths. It has an observation area. This offers a view of the freeway. In spite of this it's still an okay place to walk around. The park is pretty safe. It looks like a good place for a walk or just playing around. It's only bad thing is the observation area that lacks stuff to observe. This is a pretty nice park overall.

On Sundays in the summer a musician plays the carillon bells in the tower for about an hour in the afternoon. Bring some blankets, lay in the sun, and watch the clouds while you listen to the carillon. Behind the playground is a ravine and a hiking trail. Take the stairs down to the old boat house. This seems to be a popular spot to take engagement pictures and senior pictures. From there follow the trail into the woods and along the creek. It's a great place to take your kids to learn about trees, bugs, and other outdoorsy things. The trail does not go very far before the creek makes a sharp left turn and it becomes difficult to go further. We wandered around for a while trying to find the continuation of the trail, but it seems that it ends at the bend in the creek. From there you backtrack to the park. This park is within walking distance of our house, so on our way home we pass through the Mariemont square and always get some ice cream from Graeters. A great way to end any afternoon. It can be hard to find this park, but Mariemont has put a sign pointing the way in the median on Wooster Pike.

I decided to hike the Gorge Trail, which was very do-able, and ambitiously hoped to even follow the trail around the lake. Oooooops... There is NO LAKE, for the moment, anyway, as they've emptied it for maintenance (!!) Wasn't able to hike around the (dry) lake, as I think that trail was closed, but no worries, I headed back on the Gorge Trail (took a zillion pictures along the way, it's GORGEous!!) and made it back just in time to attend the Hispanic Festival taking place right outside the visitor's center. Looks like there's LOTS of community activities offered here, and it's a GREAT area resource!! Beautiful scenery, some waterfalls apparently, once the rain returns, picnic areas and multiple fun playgrounds for the kiddies, nicely marked trails, TONS of community events, and so much more!! Don't miss it if you're in the area!!
