Stopped in at Zappys car wash for a nice clean minivan I dont think youll see me going through BTs 13 and up dollar drive-through car wash anytime in the near future or anytime after that thats ridiculous Mystery Box up in Chardon and it does as good as the 13 and $17 one at BT
My home town. Winter, spring, summer and fall its beautiful. Town is historic, many century homes preserved. The court house is the highest elevation in the county. Folks are friendly and close knit in time of need. Maple Festival is a great gathering every spring. Good eats and great maple syrup.
I went 4/25/19 for the maple festival and it was fun had a syrup stir which was very tasty some really good BBQ and apple fritters. They were getting set up for the syrup making demo but unfortunately I was unable to stay for it. If you like maple syrup and home made baked goods youre in for a good time.
Although technically not a square.Classic quintessential town center with a courthouse and a gazebo to make the Mark Twain like story of a Sunday afternoon even better.Only thing missing is a bunch of kids painting fences.If theres an event going on most of the restaurants will be slow for service and of course overpriced.
Visited the Geauga Maple Festival. It was their 90th Year of doing this. Had fun stirring and eating maple stirs for $1.50 a piece. Not too extremely bad for the money. All the other festival prices where high priced ($3.oo for a soft serve icecream cone and $6.00 for a Sausage sandwich), but... thats what you expect these days at fairs and festivals.
Chardon does a nice job keeping up with the square, the Chardon Square community group, whose name escapes me at the moment, does all the flowers in the middle of the street and hanging from the posts, and they always do a nice job. There are tons of activities held in the square, it is very community oriented. Unfortunately, however, the old cabin on the square is gone, and that was lovely.
This is the best place for Pokemon Go. Just park at the Square and start to walk. There are several Pokestops and 2 gyms. There are lots of people walking around playing. You can just keep circling the Square to the Pokestops and loading up. All while catching Pokemon of course.

2022-04-24Beautiful spot, festival parking could be better, especially for older folks. I took my dad here for the maple festival and for the designated parking you could find was just too far. I ended up having to drop him off and meeting him over there.Also, there wasnt much there for the older crowd, it was clearly set up for kids with minimal things for adults.Another disappointment was no displays or set ups of how maple syrup/candy is created and how much maple it takes.On the plus side the maple stir was amazing!

2022-04-24Just so nice to have the maple festival back and see people back having a good time. Really surprised none of the vendors had gloves on. I thought that would have been a health mandate. Overall nice time

2022-06-26So beautiful ! Nice to sit outside and enjoy lunch or just people watching. Like stepping back in time. They have flea markets, farmers markets and various other things, all equally enjoyable.

2022-04-26Went for maple fest. It was fun for the toddlers first time. But way to over crowded . I personally dont like being shoulder to shoulder with strangers. Too small of an area. Maybe if they were able to spread it out a bit more.

2020-08-30Small town America complete with a town square, American flags, small shops and eateries. Very clean and well kept. We stopped, had lunch in the square, and walked around. A nice little town.
