About Garfield Park Reservation

See all hotspots at Garfield Park Reservation

Garfield Park Reservation is located in Garfield Heights. The reservation features picnic areas, a marsh, trails, and a nature center. The history of Garfield Park dates back almost a century. In 1894, the city of Cleveland purchased three farms, a half mile south of the city limits as a site for a new south side park. It was officially opened in 1895, as Newburg Park, and much of the beautiful stonework still evident in the reservation today dates from the original project. It was leased to Cleveland Metroparks in 1986.
