    Third of July Wedding

    The staff here were so kind! So communicative, answered every concern we had, and we felt like they were there for us and with us every step of the way. On wedding day, we felt very supported. The venue itself is so pretty, and for a very affordable price. We wouldn’t have picked anywhere else!

By booking one of the Conservancy’s venues, your wedding will help support trails, volunteers, and outdoor education in Cuyahoga Valley National Park. After your event, you can come to the park and beam with pride when you see volunteers planting trees, or youth experiencing the wonders of nature at the Cuyahoga Valley Environmental Education Center.
