Lots of history here and plenty of peace to be found on the trails and hiking the riverbed.
Love this park stairs are always a fun challenge and this hallowed ❤️ tree is perfect for that special someone pictures.
Absolutely gorgeous park. It has a loop, but you can only make the loop if the creek is low and you are willing to cross it. Its pretty easy to jump the rocks. Even if you dont do the loop, there are some beautiful trails.
Beautiful scenery. Kid friendly w/ new playground.
Great park. Beautiful scenery and well maintained
What a great place hiking through the river with the dogs.
Nice walk!
One of the coolest parks and hiking I have done! It was so fun and loved going into the water a little. Very beautiful park!
Very rich in history, beautiful nature, and good exercise!
Beautiful little park that is perfect for walking the river and hammocking.
They need to pave the road going into the park. The dirt road is terrible. They do get a excellent on the new bridge and the art work on the pillars. One question is why did they close the road at the river. Beware mosquitoes are bad.
Great little walk and a very long staircase down to the water.
Interesting hiking. The different seasons are beautiful.
A beautifully large landscape with lusciously green trees and gorgeous pathways. A soothing stream and amazing overlooks. Has less human made structures creating an authentic experience diving into nature. I highly recommend coming here if you love nature and havent already.
Great place for geocache hunting. You have to go when the water level is low to find them all, but its a great afternoon. It takes about three hours of hiking in the river, yes in the river. Awesome.
09-14-2021 Favorite park. Very peaceful. Water is clean and I love to creek walk there. You can hear a lot of different species of birds here. Very calming place!!!
Its a nice park close to my house. The road has been closed from RT84 to Vroomen if your coming from the North :(
The name of this park needs to be changed it is offensive! Cleveland sports cant be the Indians. Everything using the term Indian is offensive. All references need to be changed. How ridiculous does this sound? But thats what is happening all across America. Someone gets their feelings hurt and statues and all they can think of has to be taken down or changed. Sick of it!!!
Nice hiking park, clear wide paths. The steps down to the bottom where the rivers meet was not really worth the effort, according to my wife. I couldnt make it, it was 150 steps! :)
Good park with some cool history. Be sure to stop and read all of the plaques and see what was here before you! Lots of wildlife; butterflies, snakes, fish, deer, etc.we were able to walk the whole thing in about an hour.Lots of steps, about 150 to get down to the water from the upper entrance .
Small but lovely park really enjoyed by my nieces. Felt safe throughout.
Great place cook out, hike and relax!
Well maintained. Clear trails. I wish they focused more on the Indian history and less on some camp that used to be there
My son and I go to Indian Point all the time.
Great park above the Grand River... Good work out on the trails and steps down to the river and Paine Creek. Nice view of the surrounding areas all year round.
Beautiful. Only one short trail suitable for hiking... looks like a couple others are either in the works or have been overgrown. Great place for a riverside family picnic, not so great for hiking.
Love it here! Been coming to this park since I was a kid :)
Indian Point is awesome. I have a chocolate lab who loves to swim in the river and the bluffs are always a fun little hike. Its smaller compared to other parks in the area but it is beautiful.
Natural beauty, geology, and history are all found here!Currently the creek walk has 21 geocaches accessible only from the creek.
Beautiful area and well kept. Great trails. Trees were gorgeous this time of year.
At the top of the point on hot summer days, a cool breeze often flows through massive hemlock forests. No wonder this was an important ceremonial site and/or fort for Native Americans at various times during the past thousand years.
Redone Park is insane for fishing and hiking!!. One of the best hidden gems in all of Ohio
Very nice park. Great view of Grand River from up top.
Coupled with Paine Falls, which is just a stones throw away, it makes an enjoyable afternoon. Is especially quiet, peaceful and beautiful in the autumn. Highly recommend for your fall tour of colors.
The road into the park was rough. There are some really big pot holes on the dirt road park.
Beautiful clean park
This park is a wild and beautiful place. A lot of history happened here and it is well documented on the placards throughout the park
I basically grew up down at this park. From the dirt road in to the park itself, its very simple, but thats whats nice about it. And more often than not, you have most of it to yourself. The mounds are fascinating bonus points on top of that.
Well kept trails. Great for hiking!
O, Great Spirit...Let me learn the lessons you have hiddenin every leaf and rock.I seek strength, not to be greater than mybrother, but to fight my greatest enemy: myself...-Indian Prayer
This place is so awesome! I love it here! The views are amazing. So beautiful! I cant wait to come back again!❤️
The water is refreshing on hot days and theres plenty of beautiful scenery! Lots of small fish and toads, as well as butterflies and small forest critters to be seen!
Beautiful setting, pretty easy hike with lots of scenic overlooks.
Beautiful views, clean environment, and down the road a little ways one of the best trails Ive walked. Quiet and beautiful
Great place for a hike. Nice elevation change. Nice vista over the river.
Great park! Love the trail and that it has a lower and upper part. Easy access to Grand River.
Seemed to be way bigger when I was a little girl but its still a beautiful place to spend the morning!
Park looked great as usual theres a upper trail and lower trail great for dogs that like water and young kids to play
Very pretty woods. No major attractions just a nice walk in the woods.
Very nice and picturesque park. Its great for a short hike in woods.
Great place for a walk!
Beautiful Park to walk and fish in certain parts cause the water level extremely low in parts
Nice little park with playground and river access.
Very peaceful
I rate this place 5 stars because I was with a gorgeous redhead who has the most electric smile...and whenever she turn to the side with that smile...it made my heart melt.
Great spot to fish!
My GPS misled me for this park! When I thought Painesville I didnt know it would be even past Concord Twp. I never even got here because I was not about to drive 17 miles to the exit after getting on I-90!
What a beautiful place to enjoy nature. We love this park!
Nice park to take a walk with the kids. Nice set of stairs to climb.
I love it Ive been going there since I was a lil kid 5 stars for sure

This is a great park. Youll hate it here. Stay away! 😉The scenery is beautiful, and the stairs are great for a workout.Dont come here. I like having the park to myself.The road is closed from the top parking lot down the hill. That makes for a great snowshoe trail.So quiet and peaceful.

2022-06-26Beautiful park! Perfect place for hiking. We went all the way down the path and ended up at the river. Will definitely be coming back!

2021-10-01A nice park from the bit Ive seen of it, seems to be pretty well maintained. From my understanding the road is still closed a bit down, so I only walked around the trails closest to the entrance. I also scoped out the campsite, and it seems like a nice spot by the river.Excited to go back and explore more!

2022-03-24Nice little park to visit. On your walk thru the woods, youll come across some remnants of the past, youll also pass a 2-sided historical marker. Look out over the water from the top, or journey down the steps and take a walk in the creek. You can either start or finish your walk with a picnic at one of the tables by the parking lot. There are a few other areas to visit within a short driving distance. Great way to spend your day out.

2022-07-04Great cliff wall creek! Good for skipping rocks. Has an Indian encampment at the top of the cliff. Small playground for little kids. Portepotty by the creek and handicapped accessible. Has a good bit of trails and the creek can be walked to Paynes Falls. Plenty of shade by the creek, not really by the playground though.

2021-02-15Indian point is always a nice place to hike! Today the river was mostly frozen, so we were able to hike down the center of it! My Siberian Husky Sage loved it

2020-06-21This park is a different feel from the other metro parks weve visited. Much quieter and under a more dense canopy. The trek felt much more serene and eerie at the same time.

2022-03-07Indian Point is full of history … all you have to do is look around you and feel those who were there many years before you … the earth doesn’t lie. It holds the clues … just look.
