Acacia Reservation - Park in Lyndhurst - Cedar Rd, USA

Gorgeous! Especially with the fresh snow. Great relaxing hike. Very easy although a bit slippery with the snow. Gear up and enjoy

It’s so nice to see golf courses become public parks. Acacia Reservation is very well-maintained, has nice bathrooms, and I heard the paths are even plowed in the winter. I love catching up with friends and family while walking the paved paths and gentle hills. Even better when we head over to Beachwood Place after or grab a Nervous Dog coffee or hot cocoa before 😉 Oh - and wildflowers are GORGEOUS and you can sometimes see butterflies, caterpillars, and a bunch of other little critters.

This is one of my favorite places to walk in the area. There are of trails to chose from, all ranging in lengths, as well as an abundance of beautiful, active wildlife. More great aspects of this park are that there is covered seating, a bathroom, a field to play outdoor sports, and picnic benches to eat at. The ONLY downside is that with deer and bunnies, come ticks. My dog has at least 5 ticks on him after our 45 minute walk, and I’m concerned that I may have some on me as well. Beware of the critters, and enjoy the views.

A lovely oasis sandwiched between two highly trafficked streets. Surprisingly serene despite the background noise. The trees & vegetation abound & the park in no way resembles the golf course it once was. Needs a bit more tree cover but that will come time. Walking paths follow existing golf trails and are mostly paved. There are nice spots for picnics, gatherings & a spot of fishing.

Fantastic idea to turn this former golf course into a park reclaiming it with native species and meadows. Nice walking trails, even a fishing pond.

It has paved paths, great for walking or running. It's well maintained. There are small ponds and benches throughout to sit, fish, enjoy nature and just relax. It's a nice spot for a picnic. There is also a bathroom which is a plus.

Beautiful walk. I liked the paved trail

This is a good place to get a nice walk among the trees. It's a former golf course that the Metroparks have been helping along to get back to the natural state. The walking trails are almost all paved blacktop, making it easy waking or rolling. Other than one section nearest the fishing pond by Richmond Rd, there's not much elevation change so it's very wheelchair friendly as the trails were designed for golf carts. Bikes are allowed but I don't see them very often. Dogs allowed on a leash and poop bags and trash cans are usually available at the start of trails in case you forget. There are a few small shelters but they don't have picnic tables. Several benches are scattered around for resting and watching the birds. It's a pleasant respite from the bustling shopping malls just across the street. I'm very glad the Nature Conservancy saved this land from becoming more shops and condos.
