On trails I've seen birds of all different colors, eagle, deer, rabbits, fox, snakes, toads, butterflies, and owls. All wildlife seen are amazing! The trails are gravel and well maintained. There are two ways to access the beach and you are able to walk the length of it, swim, sit ect. Two Rentable campsites and 1 rentable pavilion with heat, water and bathrooms. There is also a separate restroom near the lookout tower. Trails I break down to four. A more open air one that can get hot if walking in the summer. A wooded one that is sheltered by trees, keeping you cooler. The beach trail and a smaller grass trail where you are likely to see butterflies and deer.

The trail is mainly concrete at the onset, so this can be a little harder on your feet. What I enjoy most, is watching happy dogs, walking the trail with their owners! People are very friendly here and will say hello. This park is connected to a beautiful town, where people are that friendly, so don't be alarmed! On a Sunday afternoon, you will find lots of runners passing you and bicycles too, so just be careful and stay to the right.

Holy gorgeous-ness!…read more Went for a long run at Sunny Lake Park yesterday afternoon - and, although it was quite overcast, the atmosphere was beyond beautiful. Several lakes and ponds. . .in the midst of hilly plains and cascading trees. . .paved running/hiking/biking paths. SAFE. Playgrounds for the kiddies. Pavilions for cookouts. Great spot for dog owners: Dog Park for both large and small dogs. Although, there were many people walking with their dogs on the main path (which is completely fine by me, as long as they clean up any mess). I would recommend to anyone.

There is a long stairway from the main street down to the falls. There are areas to stop and rest, it is a long walk down and back up.

They're nocturnal so you may not have seen them, but a dark park is perfect for catching our furry little friends jumping and gliding between trees.

This is a majorly cool park and probably the best place in the Cleveland area to see stars!…read more I went here after dinner last week with some friends. It was around 9:30 when we got there. We were lucky that it was a pretty cloudless night! The moon was bright so it was actually not terribly dark there but it was a clearer sky than you usually get in Ohio. There were several staff members around the park with big telescopes set up, telling you what you were looking at and ready to answer any questions! That was really neat. The lights are all made to help you get around without causing as much light pollution. it's a little spooky because it's all red but it was very cool. We brought blankets and just sat around, looking at the stars. It seems like a nice park during the day, too, but the main thing they're going for is star gazing and it was great for that!
