Cascade park is so beautiful! The playground is inclusive and fun, with an assortment of different equipment. The only downside is the contents of the river, sewage and garbage sadly float around, it's the people not the workers though, they do their best!

Beautiful park that has a playground, shelter house, restrooms, trails and of course the waterfall that is one of the best in Ohio. The area close to the waterfall is challenging at times depending on which trail you hike. There are amazing rock formations and the trail along the Black River is very scenic.

I'm from out of town. Park closes at sunset. A police officer was waiting at my car when I got back to it after running a trail. It wasn't yet fully dark. He was very kind, but be careful once the sun starts setting. 🤷‍♀️ Beautiful park. Great place to run, walk, and/or hike. 👍✌️🤘

Always clean, so much fun for kids. Great picnic area / pavilion. Nice trails, from beginner to intermediate. Beautiful. Private restrooms and water fountain open memorial day-labor day. Always clean!! Our favorite playground!

Best park in the middle of a city in Ohio.. Possibly the Nation... Looked like the Brooklyn Zoo for over half my life.Though ever since Lorain County Metro Parks took over a dramatic change in the amount of graffiti and trash has occurred.Its now the best spot to forget that your in the middle of Elyria .
