Chippewa Lake Park
Chippewa Lake, OH
Easily one of the oldest attractions in the US, Chippewa Lake Park was established in 1878 and closed 100 years later. Known for its thrilling wooden roller coasters, it was incredibly popular in the early part of the century, but by the 60’s, attendance dwindled and the park was closed on its 100th anniversary.
The site has been subject to development rumours, and some structures have burned down and/or been taken down, but the majority of the park has been reclaimed by nature.
