While I am usually looking for a challenge every so often I just want to have a nice easy walk and…read moreenjoy the scenery; the Beaver Marsh in Cuyahoga Valley National Park is a great place for this type of day. Located about half way through the park, across from Howe Meadow there are parking lots at either end of the marsh. Parking at the South lot it is a short walk to the Towpath Trail which allows you to traverse the marsh on the boardwalk. The boardwalk has several projections with informative signs and benches. The marsh is fascinating, created when the park took over a large auto junkyard, cleaned it up and reintroduce beavers to the area. The marsh is wide and long with plenty to see and hear. During the non-winter seasons there are plenty of birds around. You can usually find Blue Herons, ducks, red winged blackbirds and others. In the water you can see fish, turtles and frogs and if you are lucky possibly see a beaver or otter. Recently I did spot a nice snake on a log next to the boardwalk. At the North end of the boardwalk you can see where the beaver dam is blocking the flow in the abandoned canal which actually creates the marsh. Just south of the marsh on the trail is an abandoned lock that gives you an idea of how the lock system and canal worked. Overall the Beaver Marsh is a great place to hang out observe nature at some of its most scenic. If you want a more ambitious walk the Towpath Trail offers endless possibilities and the Beaver Marsh is a great place to start or just stop in a longer walk or ride.

Brandywine Falls located in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park is one of my favorite places to hike…read more The Brandywine Falls area is easy to access, the main parking lot is located on Brandywine Road and is next to the falls themselves. There is a bathroom and water fountain here, so it is a nice stop on the bike and hike trail which passes by the falls. The falls is the tallest, one of the largest and most visited falls in Ohio, it is also one of the highlights of the National Park. The park has created a boardwalk that allows you to go into the gorge and get some great views of the falls. The boardwalk does have some steep stairs and you should be careful on your way down and back up. The falls is very picturesque and will give you different looks depending on the amount of water in the stream, the time of the year and the time of day. While the falls are great I really enjoy the hikes that are available in connection with the falls. The hikes take you down the gorge and there is a bridge that allows you to cross the stream and come back up the other side. The South side hike is a bit away from the stream and is mainly through the woods on hard dirt trails; there is a bit of ups and downs including some stairs and stream crossings on bridges. The North side trail is along the river and gorge and is steeper and can be a bit of a scramble. The total loop is about 1 1/2 miles with a nice bit of vertical for its length. You can also do longer hikes to the Stanford House or the Boston Mills visitor center. One of the things I enjoy is seeing the falls and the gorge in different seasons. During the summer the lot is usually full during most of the day, the gorge offers a rather cool and shady area when the day is hot. Fall has the changing leaves and cooler temperatures. Winter creates a whole different look. Finally, spring gives you the rushing stream and the transition from winter to summer. If you haven't been to Brandywine Falls you need to plan a visit, if you haven't been there recently it is well worth a return visit.

This waterfall is impressive for being in Ohio and it attracts many people to it. If you are able to do stairs, I recommend checking it out. It's a short walk from the parking lot. The entrance is easily seen from the parking lot. The ramp/stairs (wood) can be slippery due to the weather, so be careful. The rock formation hangs slightly over as well. You are also able to hike the border too. It's a very nice area. I definitely recommend checking it out just be mindful and keep it clean. Respect the area.

4.5. First time visiting Michael Angelo's winery. Very nice experience. First, it was a Friday…read moreevening on a very cold (4°F) in NE Ohio. We called to find if there was availability and due to the weather there was a lighter crowd than normal. We drove down from the Cleveland Clinic at 5:15pm. Pulling into the parking lot the winery is in a residential area and grapevines surround the place. Nicely landscaped and designed facility. Inside the atmosphere is what you Would expect if visiting a winery. Smaller tables, wine racks, soft sofas, and a big bar. Really nice. We drink reds, so Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Pinot were ordered as they rated high/the best in California's latest wine competition. Young wines (less than 3 years) but good. The Pinot Noir was outstanding. Dinners are shared (I learned that) so order with that in mind. We had 1/2 loaf of bread, Vineyard Salad (excellent house dressing) and it was crisp, and Spaghetti Bolognese. All was prepared and presented very well. I'd order again. General Mgr Pete was personable and a wealth of information. Sun his graciousness, he offered a quick tour (and as a home winemaker myself) this was a treat. The production area was clean, limited in space, and organized. A barrel room is always a treat to visit and MA's is climate and humidity controlled. And of course smells fantastic. A great visit! And a return trip is planned soon. Oh crud, visit the bakery! Delicious and a must for chocolate lovers. And non-chocolate lovers too.
