Quarry North, corner of Belvoir and Monticello, South Euclid, OH











We found this by accident. With the leaves falling, we were able to see beyond the the Dog Park in the front of the property. What a find!
What's good: a fenced in toddler climber, lots of fresh wood chips, a snack pavilion, a bigger-kid old school style climber series (it's treated lumber instead of a plastic), excellent parking, toilets, and it's right next to this excellent looking "wader pool with sprinklers" thing that I am totally checking out next summer. The green twisty slide in the toddler area has just enough go to make kids feel like they're on an adventure--as you can see by Ellie's boot in the air, she had some torque going.
What's bad: the toilets are not open in the winter. Bummer if you're like me and drink a lot of coffee. The big kid climber is a little daunting, and the yellow slide on it has some serious zip to it and is a little high off the ground--Ellie fell off at the end.
Overall grade: A- (a little kid could really get a bruise off that yellow slide)
