    Awesome park with great history. Located right on the Portage Path. Bathrooms and trash/recycling available, along with picnic tables.

    I live near this park and have been using it for over 60 years. Here is some updated information:…read moreSwimming is no longer allowed. (for humans) Dogs can swim on Thursdays only. There is no charge to get in. The paved road around the lake has been split into a one-way driving/biking road and a with an adjacent walking lane. There is a Hike/bike trail called The Freedom Trail that borders this park. Metro Parks Summit County is going to add a connector trail between them in 2026. The Freedom Trail in this area is a rail trail, so it is pretty flat. There is an area called Tallmadge Meadows that to me is a separate park, because the two areas have very different prior ownership and history, but Metro Parks considers them to be the same park. The parking for Tallmadge Meadows is right around the corner from South River Rd. on South Main St. (Rt 91). There is also a trailhead in Munroe Falls for the Summit County Bike and Hike Trail. It is about a ¼ mile North of South River Rd and runs along the Cuyahoga River. I used to be a Firefighter/EMT in Munroe Falls and it was not unusual for us to get called out to the "Metro Park" and have to ask, "which one"? All 3 of these are great parks and I consider myself luck to live in between them.

    Great spot for a going away picnic planned at the last moment. I was happy. The bathrooms were open…read moreand clean, plenty of trash, young screaming kids, sand, and stuff to do. Its COVID season, I haven't gotten out anywhere so this is the best I can do since I haven't eaten outside since Feb. This was nice but, of course, catered with my own cooking. I wish I could Yelp my own cooking, a clear 1 star.

    This is a nice connection between the Tannery park and the rest of the hike and bike trail. Brady's…read moreLeap is here, if you're into that sort of thing. The path does narrow but is paved the entire way if you take 'the high road'. You can walk closer to the river if you're feeling more adventurous. There is a boardwalk area with tables and another area that you can walk right down into the river. In warmer months there is a nice waterfall where the lock used to be. Lots of plaques with a history of the canal written on them.

    Like most things in life, people have failed to appreciate & understand the purpose of a park and…read morehave unfortunately brought the city into this one. The main path for this park is not only very narrow & muddy but also littered with lots of trash. If you enjoy the sounds & smells of nature, you wont find that here either. You are almost directly next to the railroad tracks, a dirty river and a bunch of businesses & apartment buildings. The only nice thing about this path is that it eventually comes out to a paved section where the new bridge was built (this is the only clean area) and when the damn isn't in use; you can view an unimpressive waterfall. However, when when things are closed up for the colder months, the water smells like raw sewage. Graffiti can be a form of art but here it is the exact opposite as almost every surface is spray painted with ugly images or words. Although there is a boardwalk part of the way, there isn't anything worth discovering. Kent needs to spend less money on making new over priced businesses that no one can visit due to the lack of parking & start spending some of the cities money on cleaning it up.
