Splash pads in Medina, Ohio

Reagan Park is Medina's family hub and the splash area is a genuinely good free pour for a Cleveland exurb. Ground jets and a couple of taller arches on a rubber-mat deck, fenced and fully visible from the surrounding picnic tables. Free parking is plentiful, restrooms clean, and the playground next door handles the in-between kid energy. Lake Erie lake-effect breezes do reach Medina on a good northwest day, taking the edge off northeast Ohio's humid stretch. Pair with the Medina Square historic district for ice cream at Cool Beans Cafe. Open roughly Memorial Day through Labor Day, daytime hours.
