    Good amount of parking. Beautiful views of the carved rock and the falls. Moderate hiking in the area.

    Neat carved rock and trails, plus lots of water and a waterfall. The trails can be narrow and slippery - watch your footing (especially when it's crowded) and bring a hiking pole if you're concerned about that. Especially when they're covered in leaves, which makes them extra slippery.

    It took us a little while to find the rock but the hike was a great little trip. Very secluded and few people for such a nice day. You can feel truly isolated here. The trails are heavily wooded and just beautiful scenery, while still being relatively easy enough to walk. The few people we did see almost always had dogs or running shoes. 5 stars, would recommend. We drove 40min from the west side to get here and it was worth it!

    Liked hiking and beautiful serene waterfalls there. Take a look of waterfalls from up and if you feel it is safe then must go down near it. We went. Picnic areas under long green trees with fire pit is awesome, enough park benches and lot of parking. It's nice to go for biking, walking and hiking. There are many other parks around.

    This is a gorgeous park but if you're taking the loop to Henry Church Rock (formerly Squaw Rock) be aware that you will be going up and down some stairways that are stone. The leaves covered the steps when we trekked there after the rain and the stone ones were mighty slippery! We had our share of skids but luckily didn't fall. Some parts of the stairways have nothing to hold on to. Up top, the rim has unprotected drop offs so I'd be very wary of taking young kids on that trail. But the hike was still as beautiful as ever, and the waterfall was stunning! Most people were wearing masks. We had a spectacular afternoon there.

    This was a really beautiful place to explore. A lot of trails, even though the lower ones had a lot of fallen trees. Only other downside is that the water fountains are actually shut off, so make sure you bring extra water!

    Love this part of the South Chagrin Res. Our family hikes it regularly. We like to hike as far as we can down by and in the water than find our way back to the parking lot on either the paved path or small trails. My 2 year old needed to be carried through a few areas because of mud slides and fallen trees in some sections.

    I'm In love with this park. One of the best parks around. There is several trails and a work out fitness trail. This place is so beautiful with nature. I drive 15 minutes everyday to come to this park. Check it out if you never been here! Worth a veiw!

    Beautiful trail, easy acess to the waterfall but there are many steps! There is a longer loop trail to enjoy as well. Good parking, picnic tables, and firepits available.

    Lovely park- a great place to play in the river and look at scenery. The water was nice and clear and we enjoyed a walk in the river. The picnic areas were nice and we enjoyed our visit.

    Nice loop trail along the stream. Not much of a breeze on a hot summer day. Careful on the steps- many are different heights and there's not much of a railing.
