Richfield Heritage Preserve formerly Crowell Hilaka, is Ohio's Hidden Treasure. 336 acres of winding streams, lakes, and wooded uplands, it was farmed by the pioneer Oviatt family and then became the estate of inventor Jim Kirby. During the 1920s Kirby constructed a patented lake, a mill to generate electric power, a house air-conditioned with spring water, and a dance hall built on springs. Upstream, the Neal family built their fairy tale houses and operated a thriving fruit farm. The land was purchased by the Cleveland Girl Scouts in 1937 and enclosed for the protection of the girls. In 2015, the property was purchased by the citizens of Richfield. It is being transformed into a park for public enjoyment.
This is a wonderful park with beautiful quiet hiking trails through lovely woodland scenery. There are 2 pretty lakes, although the lower one is currently drained for dam repairs. There are are some fascinating historic houses to the north of the park and a watermill at the southern end. A great place for a relaxing countryside walk.
