Acquired by Cleveland Metroparks in 1925, Huntington Reservation is a unique slice of Northeast Ohio. Situated on the lakefront, the roughly 100-acre park contains three miles of trails and a variety of habitats, ranging from beach to forest and meadow. Affiliated organizations, such as BAYarts and Lake Erie Nature & Science Center, form a hub for the local arts scene and provide unique educational opportunities. At the historic water tower, guests can visit Karen's Way Play Space or grab a snack at The Noshery before hitting the beach.
Huntington Reservation offers many recreational opportunities. Sport fishing is one of the most popular outdoor recreational activities available in Cleveland Metroparks. Find more fishing information here.
