Euclid Creek Reservation is best known as the former site of the famed Euclid Beach Amusement Park, which operated between 1895 and 1969 and was modeled after New York City's Coney Island. Though many of the park's amusement rides have long disappeared, it retains relics such as a shuffleboard area and remnants of the Flying Turns roller coaster. The park's southern area, divided by its namesake Euclid Creek, is located on the site of the ghost town of Bluestone, which popped up in the late 19th century as a result of quarrying activity. In 2013, the park was expanded to include areas formerly contained within Euclid Beach, Villa Angela, and Wildwood Parks. It now offers a 650-foot public beachfront area along the Lake Erie shoreline, which is home a scenic observation pier and shaded day-use picnic areas. Angling opportunities are offered at Wildwood Park's boat launch, while biking opportunities are available at the 17-mile Cleveland Lakefront Bike Trail, which provides access to nearby Edgewater Park.
