South Chagrin Enhancement Fund

South Chagrin Reservation is where generations have come to connect—with nature, with family, and with the past. Whether picnicking at Quarry Rock, exploring Look About Lodge, or sledding near Miles Road, this historic park has long offered a place of beauty and belonging.

With the completion of the 2024 Master Plan, Cleveland Metroparks is set to enhance this treasured space through enhancements including: 

  • Thoughtful improvements to Look About Lodge that will expand and enrich the educational experiences offered to children, families and lifelong learners alike. 
  • A new accessible, nature-based family play space at Arbor Lane, where children of all ages and abilities will safely explore, play and connect with nature—modeled after the popular play areas at Edgewater Park, Brecksville Reservation and Huntington Reservation. 
  • Upgrades at the iconic Polo Field that will boost amenities for all who use the area, strengthen trail connections, improve views to the Chagrin River and support ongoing equestrian use.

Your tax-deductible gift to the South Chagrin Enhancement Fund will go directly to these and other park improvements—not overhead—ensuring a lasting impact. Be part of South Chagrin’s future—support this special place today.
