Acacia Reservation

Gorgeous! Especially with the fresh snow. Great relaxing hike. Very easy although a bit slippery with the snow. Gear up and enjoy

It’s so nice to see golf courses become public parks. Acacia Reservation is very well-maintained, has nice bathrooms, and I heard the paths are even plowed in the winter. I love catching up with friends and family while walking the paved paths and gentle hills. Even better when we head over to Beachwood Place after or grab a Nervous Dog coffee or hot cocoa before 😉 Oh - and wildflowers are GORGEOUS and you can sometimes see butterflies, caterpillars, and a bunch of other little critters.

This is one of my favorite places to walk in the area. There are of trails to chose from, all ranging in lengths, as well as an abundance of beautiful, active wildlife. More great aspects of this park are that there is covered seating, a bathroom, a field to play outdoor sports, and picnic benches to eat at. The ONLY downside is that with deer and bunnies, come ticks. My dog has at least 5 ticks on him after our 45 minute walk, and I’m concerned that I may have some on me as well. Beware of the critters, and enjoy the views.

It has paved paths, great for walking or running. It's well maintained. There are small ponds and benches throughout to sit, fish, enjoy nature and just relax. It's a nice spot for a picnic. There is also a bathroom which is a plus.

This started life as a golf course. It failed and ended up as a county reservation.

It is now a wonderful walking park. It offers several paths around the grounds, all paved in asphalt. Depending on the time of year, you will see various natural indigenous features.

It is dog-friendly when kept on a leash, and our Papillon loves to go there.

Fantastic idea to turn this former golf course into a park reclaiming it with native species and meadows. Nice walking trails, even a fishing pond.

This is a good place to get a nice walk among the trees. It's a former golf course that the Metroparks have been helping along to get back to the natural state. The walking trails are almost all paved blacktop, making it easy waking or rolling. Other than one section nearest the fishing pond by Richmond Rd, there's not much elevation change so it's very wheelchair friendly as the trails were designed for golf carts.

Bikes are allowed but I don't see them very often. Dogs allowed on a leash and poop bags and trash cans are usually available at the start of trails in case you forget.

There are a few small shelters but they don't have picnic tables. Several benches are scattered around for resting and watching the birds.

It's a pleasant respite from the bustling shopping malls just across the street. I'm very glad the Nature Conservancy saved this land from becoming more shops and condos.

Beautiful park with paved trails throughout. This park is extremely clean and well kept. There are garbage and recycling cans all along the path. We saw many birds and other people enjoying the day fishing, dog walking, running, or just taking a stroll. There are small hills but nothing too strenuous.

Delightful and popular multi-path, 2 sided public park that circles back from start to finish. It was once a golf course that got renovated into a park. Trash bins and doggy bags located throughout the different pathways. No lighting at night so take some lighting with you if it’s too dark. Paths don’t seem to be salted during winter. Parking lot is big.

Taking the longest path from start to finish usually takes me about 30-60 minutes depending on how fast my dog wants to move. I usually run into other dog walkers on my daily walks. Sometimes you might run into wildlife such as deer or coyotes.

Love this reservation. The park is clean, and the upper park has asphalt paths winding past meadows, ponds and woods. Waiting for the bathrooms to open. These are early spring photos.

Beautiful walk. I liked the paved trail

Enjoyed a beautiful sunny day with my daughter and son-in-law walking the trails and enjoying the birds and foliage.

An absolute gem of the Metro Park. So close to homes and shopping area. Yet in a five minute walk you find yourself in a quiet area surrounded by large trees, beautiful bushes, birds, an occasional Hawk, deer, or even a coyote. Year around beauty and serenity of nature all within an earshot of Lyndhurst, Beachwood, Pepper Pike, University Heights, Mayfield Heights.

Gorgeous park with several walking paths, picnic areas, gazebos, benches. Each path feels and looks different - lots of variety. No playgrounds, but my kids love the pond.
Restrooms are very clean, too!

It's amazing, the place is huge. Comes with a full working kitchen and it was so easy to host our Christmas party here. Will come again.

Really nice park for walking, dogs or just enjoying nature. Several walking trails, and police presence in parking lot, so definitely feels safe. Small pond. Very clean. Plenty of flat grass space for a picnic.

When I was younger going to Beachwood Mall I remember this as a golf course. I’m extremely happy it’s apart of the metro park system. A beautiful area worth visiting.

Great Location! Beautiful Sights of Nature! A great space to rent out for a party or get together

Beautiful relaxing walking trail great place to take photos as well.

The paved trails are perfect, surrounded by trees and lakes. Especially beautiful in the Fall!
