Richfield Heritage Preserve

We attended a Winter Wonders event at the lodge at this park. The area is beautiful and the events held here are always top notch. I'm so impressed with the place and the lodge itself is such a gorgeous building. Highly recommend coming for a hike or to attend an event!

Beautiful park with several walking trails and two lakes. There’s even a secret waterfall! Part of the Buckeye Trail goes through and there’s a nice display of spring wildflowers along the river. Not quite big enough for a good paddle, but kayaking is allowed. The Lodge is reservable and looks so beautiful on the inside after renovation. Dogs are allowed and must be on leash.

What a perfect day for beautiful hike at Richfield Heritage Preserve.
It is a true blessing that this location was not purchased and destroyed for new home development.
Here you will find a 336 acre beautiful hiking treat, see all the beautiful wildflowers, cabins from the girl scout years gone by.
There is history here be sure to read up before trek, in the process of repairs is the mill house awaiting its new wheel from Kentucky!
The beautiful dance hall is dilapidated and in need of dire repairs there is a gorgeous stone fireplace that you can see from the window. The floor in the dance also holds natural spring dance floor so the women in the 1800s early 1900s could dance longer in evening hours and have relief from fatigue.
The Clearwater lower lake needs help as well its no longer clear but just needs help too.
They offer yoga classes, wild flower trails, bridle trails.
Keep in mind trails can be muddy, wear appropriate foot wear , and bring your water to stay hydrated. Stay on the marked trails not to disturb wild life.
Richfield Heritage Preserve rely on donations and volunteers to maintain this beautiful sanctuary.

A lesser know set of beautiful hiking trails around and amazing property owned by the Kirby’s. Water wheel currently under construction. Highly recommend for everyone.
