Paine Falls Park

Paine Falls Park Lake Metroparks’ Paine Falls Park is home to a striking 30‑foot waterfall cascading through a wooded valley. It became known as "Paine's Hollow."

A short trail leads to an overlook with views of Paine Falls, surrounded by a landscape with a rich history. HISTORY: Colonel Hendrick Paine, nephew of Edward Paine (founder of Painesville) moved his family in 1818 from Parkman, Ohio to this little valley. Paine built a log cabin on the terrace on the north side of the valley. In 1974, the area was named Paine Falls and was dedicated as a park by Lake Metroparks.
