This is the Best Kept Secret place to swim and have the kids catch crawdads in the creek below. There is a beach, shower house, picnic areas, life guards, and it is FREE. It is almost impossible to find, even online. So here is the directions. Spillway Picnic Area is located off West Drive in Hinckley Reservation, off Bellus Road in Hinckley Township. Features a changing and swimming area. It is actually 30 minutes away, but don't let that stop you.

It has been open since 1947. The best way to catch a movie with little ones or just have a date night out. If you haven't been to a drive-In lately, every Drive-In is now Digital, so the movies are high quality and 1st Run Movies. Not old ones. (except right now, because COVID has stopped all new movie releases) We actually have 3 Drive-In's local to us, but this one is our favorite. If you don't like the movies playing here though, drive a little further and go the the Auto-Rama in North Ridgeville 33395 Lorain Road
