Lake Metroparks has worked with local, state, and national conservation partners to acquire, conserve, and protect more than 600 acres in Perry Township, Ohio, on the bluffs overlooking Lake Erie. The first phase of development included the three-season picnic and event pavilion with restrooms. The double-sided fireplace and overhead doors provide flexible indoor and outdoor space. The materials were selected for their park aesthetic as well as durability and low-maintenance characteristics.
