My friend purchased a Groupon for this escape room and did all the booking for our group of 12 (6 adults and 6 children, ages 8-16), so I can't comment on customer service when booking. But we walked in and everyone was friendly and it was all very professional! We had our own waiting room to sign the waivers and just chill before we started. They were about 10 min (no big deal) and they were very apologetic, but we really didn't mind. We did the Chaotic Classroom, and for the first 25 minutes, I really didn't think we'd "escape!" But then things started falling in place and we made it out with 10 min to spare! It was challenging, but very logical. (We did use all 3 of our hints tho!) This is my second escape room and everyone else's first. We all loved it! The girl in charge of our group was very very nice! She took our group picture to put on the wall since we were successful, and even offered to take pictures with some of our phones. I highly recommend Chaotic Classroom!

Cuyahoga Valley National Park

Reviewed By Ruth G - Columbia, MD

Built during the Roosevelt administration by the Civilian Conservation Corps, the wood and stone Happy Days Lodge located in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park is a great place for a large party. It’s rustic but comfortable with one large function room and a slightly smaller group space. We attended a family function here and enjoyed the lodge, the first-rate sound system, and the valet parking. The food was catered, and there were enough wait staff for speedy delivery of food and clean up.

Go Ape Treetop Adventure Course

It's not in the dictionary, but if it was, Go Ape would be described as a 'tree top adventure'.That means we build giant obstacle courses up in the trees using ladders, walkways, bridges and tunnels made of wood, rope and super-strong wire, and top it all off with the world's best zip lines.We then equip people with harnesses, pulleys and carabiners, give them a 30 minute safety briefing and train

Very nice staff made demonstrations very easy to learn and understand. Smaller place but it was nice they way they regulate the amount of people that can be onthe coarse at once. Been to other zip lining places and there can be to many people on the course at one time which makes things go alot slower and cuts into your time. Likes how you can choose easier or harder obstacles. Tarzan swing is amazing they need a coarse with just like 10 of them. Good coarse for younger older and beginner's. Would recommend.

Brandywine Falls

Reviewed By lilirishstar - North Canton, Ohio

Easy to get to, just minutes off of Route 8, to a nice big parking lot. Then an easy short walk on an impressive boardwalk/ viewing platform trail way. There is an outdoor restroom in the parking lot and 2 trail heads for longer 1.5 mile loop trails. The gorge is steep and tree lined. The falls are impressive and viewable from several spots.

The Boneyard- Broadview Heights

Reviewed By Stan5107 - United Kingdom

Could be a better start - tried twice, Chili was supposed to be good, but not a lot of flavor and not served hot. Wings that should have been rubbed prior to cooking had a small tablespoon container of dry rub on the side. Could have been good, but I'll never know. Chicken was so dry on the outside (and inside) the rub would not stay on the wings. Service is hit an miss. had to walk to bar both times to find someone to get the check. Could be a good place to miss.

Brecksville Reservation

Reviewed By Anne-Marie P - Ohio

Part of the Cleveland Metropark, the Brecksville reservation is a wonderful park system of paved hiking trails, cleared wood trails amidst soaring trees, horse trails, picnic pavilions and an interpretive nature center with knowledgeable and welcoming rangers. Oh yes, and one impressive rocky shallow rive, Chippewa Creek< that is such a joy for rock-skipping.

The intimacy of the trails and the open expanse of its lower area makes Brecksville a wonderful place for not just hiking, but also playing frisbee with your dog, letting your children run around, or just lay on the grass and listen to the multitude of birds chirping in the trees. Benches line the trails for occasional respite, as do work-out stations with beams, chains and posted exercise guidelines.
By Chippewa road, and through out, map trails and history posters enhance the park-going experience.
All these trails and forest management are under the care of the phenomenal Cleveland Metroparks. Brecksville is but gem in their incredible Emerald Necklace. The other gems are as lovely and breathtaking.

Canal Exploration Center

Reviewed By Anthony M

This park is just southeast of the very hectic and congested business area concentrated around I-77 and Rockside Road in Independence OH. Many activities are available including the Cuyahoga Valley railway, a visitor's​ center illustrating the Ohio & Erie Canal, a towpath along the canal, well suited for biking, strolling and running but I frequently just stop here to wind down and walk by the river.

Reviewed By gumpper88 - Cardington, ohio

If take the train from the Akron Station, be prepared. It is just a small building with no restrooms. There are porta johns that are nasty full. The train ride was ok, way over priced. My small grandkids got about 10 minutes of entertainment out of the 3+ hour ride.

I was visiting my nephew in Cleveland recently and he had some upper back tension due to stress & also the way he sleeps. There wasn't anything I could do except find him a good masseuse. Neither of us are from Cleveland so I Googled and lucked into Lava. What a great find. Alyesha was his massage therapist and she did an outstanding job of taking away his tension. After his therapeutic/deep-tissue massage she came out & explained to me what she found & did. She also gave him some tips on how to reduce his muscle tightening. We had a follow-up appointment last week which was equally helpful.

Lava Massage is conveniently located in a small strip plaza in Broadview Heights - not far from I-77. It has a warm, clean ambiance.
