Sunnybrook Preserve Lodge, Geauga Park District Overview

Sunnybrook Preserve is a 73-acre preserve in eastern Chester Township. Through most of the twentieth century, the property was maintained for horticultural purposes. It is Geauga Park District's intent to protect this natural area in perpetuity so events, like your wedding, will be filled with beauty and ease. In 1928 Dr. Harold and Edith Ruh purchased 170 acres in Chesterland to establish Sunnybrook Farms Nursery as a commercial venture, but also to provide their children with “a chance at productive living outdoors.” Eventually the land was sold to Geauga Park District to be used as a public park. With outdoor trails and unique habitat features, this venue will feel like a true getaway for you and your guests. Surrounded by large forest trees, ravines and unique birds, you’ll be nestled in nature as you exchange your vows. Celebrate your nuptials and toast to your new beginning at Sunnybrook Preserve Lodge.
