I recently found this cute and quaint park in Wadsworth, and I'm happy I did. I came here for a…read moreshort run on the trail and loved the scenery. The trail itself is a little over one mile paved from end-to-end. If you find yourself aching for more mileage, you can easily continue onto the neighborhood sidewalks. I found the entire park and the length of the trail well maintained, mowed, pruned, and litter-free. There's an event space, aptly named The Trolley Line House. It has the cutest signage featuring a model trolley and the exterior is decorated for fall. There's a bicycle parking rack and maintenance station for basic repairs or tube changes. Down by the parking area is a large picnic pavilion with four tables and electrical outlets. On the other side of the event house is a fire pit and I'd love to join a gathering here. All in all, it's a truly great little park. Can't wait to see if the trail gets extended - I'd be here even more if it was.

What an amazing park in the middle of the city! The paths are mostly paved and well taken care of…read more Even though it's next to some streets the trees mute most of the city sounds. The trails run right next to the river so you consistently have a great view. There is definitely wild life to see. We saw a crane and a racoon on our visit. Overall a very peaceful and serene spot to connect with nature. The park website has great maps to figure out where to park or get on the trail. There are a few spots you can get onto the trail to make it a short walk to the falls if that's what you're looking for.

I saw that this little gem has 2 stars and an unfair review so I thought I would throw in my two…read morecents. This will always be my favorite little park. And it's a popular place. I used to live right next to Brust Park and would go there almost every day and in every season. You can never go wrong. By the parking area is an overlook looking at the Cuyahoga River. Which smells so fresh and clean. Walk the paved path (running along the river) East towards Kent or west towards Cuyahoga Falls/Silver Lake. You can make a left going west and end up in waterworks park, equally as gorgeous. It kind of seems like it's all the same park to me. Going west will also take you past a large pond that people fish in and there is often a blue heron hanging out there. There are many opportunities to get close to the river and many little trails off the beaten path that you can explore. There's always people kayaking. This park is so inspiring and I still make it a point to go out of my way to go here even though I live 30 minutes away now. As far as facilities go, there is a nice bathroom at the entrance and you can find more at waterworks a short way down the path. As far as the other review stating a junkyard exploded I have no idea what that is referring to. The park is scenic and clean, yes it does go behind some houses, but nice ones at that and I never felt that it took away from the experience. Also I don't recall there being ample trash cans for dog waste but I don't have a dog. I know there are at least a few trash cans going west. I wouldnt knock this place just for that though. I hope if you get the chance to enjoy this park that you love it as much as I do.

This review is limited to the Chief Netawatwees statue that is erected directly opposite the…read moreentrance of the park. The statue is made entirely out of black oak and was created by Joe Frhonapfel. It weighs over 4000 pounds. Chief Netawatees was the head of the Lenape Indian tribe. Known to his people as "the wise counselor" he had relocated his people to Eastern Ohio where he helped a Moravian missionary near his village. He later died at Fort Pitt during the Revolutionary war. The statue sits on a medial strip on Front street directly facing the park. It is colorful and is a great representation of a honored tribal chief. There is a crosswalk so you can safely go over and view the statue from a safe distance. The back of the statue is solid black. Check it out before engaging in the many activities this park has to offer by the Cuyahoga river.
