Karen's Way Play Space

Karen's Way Play Space is a nearly one-acre play space that incorporates an expansive nature-based design fitting the character of Huntington Reservation. Features include a willow tunnel, slide, a playhouse and small stage, musical play components, two separate swing sets for ages 2-5 and ages 5-12, a water play feature and a 50-foot-long kid-friendly zipline. The swing set and zipline feature ADA inclusive seating.

The Play Space connects to the recently updated Noshery concessions building and Sunset Picnic Plaza by a paved accessible path. The project was funded by a generous gift from Karen’s Way Inc. The project was designed in-house by Cleveland Metroparks Planning & Design team and built by our Construction team.
