What a beautiful place for a family outing. The day we were there the fall foliage was beautiful. And of course the animals were out...horses...pigs...cows... donkeys. Children love to see the workings of a real farm. You can also pack a picnic and eat by the lake across the street from the farm.

Awesome stop while in the Dayton area. They have an old farm there that they are maintaining. Neat to see the buildings. Saw 5 beautiful white horses on the farm. Also have a pretty nice size lake. Seen several people fishing it. Unfortunately the visitors center wasnt open. Also, several people there taking pictures.

This is a fairly large park with many things to do. I like the visitors center for understanding the history of the farm and area. The little store inside is nice and the kids really like the candy selection. The old farm house and barn are fun to visit. The animals really add to the experience. Sometimes the blacksmith shop is open and operating. Special events are always good as costumed volunteers tell about the farm. The Cedar Lake area is always popular for fishing. It has a lot of wildlife.

Beautiful park, we will definitely be going back to explore more.

Wish it hadnt been raining but we still got some good pictures.

Carriage Hill is a great place to explore, especially in the time of Covid. It is an 1880s farm with animals you can pet, streams to travel, and trails to hike. It is so nice to go somewhere and not have to wear a mask since you are outside and there is so much space between groups.

Super cool Mateo park to try out

Im a budding birdwatcher. Carriage Hill is a great place to see birds!

Nice little Metropark. The area is well maintained and clean the hiking trails are well marked too.

This is a nice farm to go to. Lots of horses and some farm animals along with nice trails and a small country store here. They offer horse rides for $30 a person. Last time I was here I was about 5 or 6 years old. Its been many years since I was here.Some things has changed but still a nice experience going here. I will be visiting a bit more now that the weather is very nice.

Nice family farm. Pretty place even tho all the buildings are closed for Corona

Wonderful park filled with a cute farm and lots of walking/hiking trails.

Even though its mostly closed it is still a beautiful place to take a walk.

This place has great trails and some excellent fishing spots. however its very crowded usually. over fished but still good

Fun place to take pictures for anything! Weddings, dances, or just for fun.

This place provides great service and enjoyable menu.

We went fishing and disappointed that most of the main Lake has algae and green moss near most of shoreline. Cant cast and not reel in without having to clean your lure each time. Would be nice if some of the trash trees and growth on some some banks could be cleared and make more fishing options available. I realize it goes against the fabric of the Park but more user friendly. We found trying to fish the North Pond near impossible again due to the trees and green funk.

Nice an quiet. Could use more swings. And if the moss could be removed it would be perfect but all around great place to relax hike or fish

The fishing was great! The catching ... not so much.

Beautiful scenery on our walk, we did part of red then green, then yellow trail, enjoyed it a lot

I love Carriage Hill. I’ve come here since I was a little, and nothing has changed (which I find so unique). It’s amazing to be able to walk through a place that’s frozen in history. The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly and there’s a variety of animals that you can get up close to and pet. There’s even an old fashioned penny candy store, which is the perfect treat to round out the trip. There’s a fun play area for kids set up as an old school house as well as a tiny kitchen to play in. Definitely spent hours of my life playing there! We even saw a baby bird in it’s nest in one of the outdoor house porches. Unique experiences to be had here!

Cant wait until they open the buildings back up.

Spent some time there hiking yesterday beautiful park!

Great place to take family and friends. Great place for children as well. Great educational experience. Nice employees, it’s shown that they love their job and embrace their customers. Also has a great candy and gift store.

Beautiful with lots of walking trails. Nice boardwalk along the lake

Great place to take the kids to learn how people lived in the USA years ago... see work horses, pigs, cows, sheep, and chickens, also take in the black smith shop, wood shop, and farm house... which includes the spring house and pie oven for outside summer baking... along with sewing demonstrations and canned foods... its a great look at the way things used to be... go across the street and take in the hiking trails along with the ponds one in front and one off the trails in the back acreage... bring your fishing pole also if you into that kind of thing...

Though buildings are closed much still to see and do on a beautiful day

Our favorite Metro Park!

Nice quiet and peaceful but not too good for fishing but it is a great place to have a good time and cook out. Beautiful place

Grew up with regular visits, its only gotten better.

This is a great place to take your children or for a lovers walk. They have a free farm you can visit, an old fashioned candy store with penny candy, a place where your child can play in a historic classroom! Great vibes from all the folks who work here! Farm visits are free & the kids have a blast!

Love Cedar Lake

Awesome metropark in the dayton area! Cedar lake is packed with fish... I just need to learn how to catch them!!

My favorite local Metro park. License free fishing. Lots of trails for hiking and horse trails. They also put on shows and 1800s reenactments.

Nice, large metro park with a fishing pond and hiking trails.

Always a local favorite recreation spot.Farm, equestrian, and fishing spot!

Food is very good and employees are superb.

There are a bunch of buildings showing farm life back in yesteryear. The donkey, sheep, pigs, and horses were also fun to see. Its great because its free and not overly huge so you can go for an hour and feel like youve stepped back in time. There are hiking and horse paths all around but we didnt go over those today. Be aware the general store is only open Saturdays and Sundays.

Lovely park. My son had a great time wondering around looking for ducks.

This morning, The Clark Family went to hike Carriage Hill MetroPark in Huber Heights... It was the perfect day to do it too!️This is officially the 12th Park / Reserve that #TeamClark has hiked in the last 13 weeks!There were a ton of people fishing the big pond they have at the park... Unfortunately, we were a little too early to take advantage of the candy shop they have at the visitors center... ️The Clark Family Goal is to hike a different reserve or park in OHIO every weekend until winter!!#FamilyFirst #DaytonStrong #CarriageHillMetroPark #TeamClark

Very relaxing place in a hectic world.

I love spending time here with my family or by myself!!!

We love going to Carriage Hill. It’s beautiful, as proven by the hoards of people taking family pictures every time we go! If you love history, this park is a must.

Great place for holiday pictures!

Beautiful place lots of trails to walk and alot of places to see

A fantastic piece of West Central Ohio history.

The park is gorgeous, and everyone who works here is always very kind. We love taking our family here to enjoy the scenery and visit the candy shop!

Im absolutely disgusted with the condition of the animals. It hurt my heart.

Excellent moderate hiking trail.

Beautiful park good fishing pond

Ride my horses on their trails and bring my family to the park as well. The trails are always well maintained, clean and always being updated. The parks are clean, lots of trails, and their farm events are pretty neat! Would be nice if they had a playground, but theres plenty of other things to do here

I cannot say enough good things about this working 1800’s farm!! My grandma and my aunt used to take my sister and I, plus all of our cousins to carriage hill at least once a week when it was weather permitting. They have since added new and improved buildings to the farm, but the old town charm/feel is still there and pleasant as ever. The penny candy store is the only one I know of around here, and if you go on the weekends all of the animals will be out. Along with a working blacksmith, woodworker, farm house, a couple barns, and horse/hayrides. They also have events from time to time throughout the year. Usually with the switching of seasons, and holidays. I’ve been being my boys here since they were born, so that would be 17 years. Soon we’ll have a new addition to the family, and I plan to carry on this little tradition for as long as I can. Hoping one day my boys will be bringing their children to the farm.

This is a wonderful park, even in winter and snow.

Metro parks really do know how to use our levy monies very effectively. Wonderful 1836 era Ohio farm.

I was born and raised in the area. However I left to go to Florida 20 years ago and never came back. This is my first time back. Im moving back home and my daughter really enjoys his place.

Always has been a great place to walk and take in the fresh air!!!

Always a fun place to take the family

Love this place. It has several different opportunities for photo shoots. The horses are fun to watch and they have many activities that the kids enjoy. The staff is friendly and Im grateful to have acces to such a lovely venue! Bonnie Hill Photography

Beautiful park with many fun options.

Through out the year this metro park has many great activities, plenty of farm life and wild life to see, and all around a great place to get out and walk. Highly recommend for those days with nothing to do

If i could give this place 0 stars i would. I Went to carriage hill today to see some animals and was horrified when i got there at the conditions the animals were in ! First thing i see when i was in is sheep and a donkey COVERED in flies and mud looked like they havent been groomed or been taken care of in years. I look closer to see a sheep with a severe open wound on its side looked like it got cut when they where trying to shave it. It was horrible i felt so bad for that sheep the gash was over half a foot long and looked infected. The other animals there werent in good shape either they all looked diseased, were extremely dirty , walking in mud and poop , just awful. I was really upset about the whole experience and felt bad for the animals i will be contacting someone about it.

We have hiked, visited with animals, and enjoyed local history here for years. Living out of the area now, Carriage Hill is one place that my family greatly misses. There’s much to enjoy for all ages!

This park has a bit of everything. . Historical houses and actors eager to teach. .miles of hiking. .lake for fishing. Horse trails.. Plenty of shelters for partys..and best of all...a penny candy shop and a concession stand..totally worth the trip

Nice place to go for a hike

Another beautiful metropark. And the point rises are adorable as well as adorable.

This park is fantastic! There is so much to see and do.

Great place to bring your family!It has a few days worth of entertainment bundled up here as long with some cool history! the animals always seem to be having a fun time and look like they are treated well. all though some of the goats tend to be a bit devilish sounding lol. I could walk around the park all day! they have some many trails and hidden features all around the park. I used to fish here quite a bit and it is a wonderful spot for kids to get into fishing! plenty of bluegills and bass loaded up inside the first big pond but there is also one a bit further back if you want to adventure a bit!

My kid loves everything about this place. Especially the Penny Candy Store. Its always a good fun family trip.

Love this beautiful and peaceful tranquil haven.

We take our daughter there as much as we can for the pony rides on Saturday! Such incredible people and horses! My daughter always request we go there! Would most definitely recommend!

I love this park! I often run back on the trails by the fishing ponds and I love just relaxing and I take in nature. I also love the farm side where you can visit the animals and pet them without having to pay an entry fee as other similar places are.

Nature... unspoiled and lovely

Buildings are closed but there is still some animals out to see

An amazing place with extremely knowledgeable and friendly staff. The demonstrations are super cool, and they have a little penny candy store. We go as often as we can!

I love taking my dog here for long walks/hikes!!!

You guys clearly dont know how to take care of the animals. You got a pig out there with multiple cuts on the ears!!! And was in serious distress! It was not acting normal at ALL. I mean there were flies in the cuts. It will soon have an infection if you dont take care of it right away. Im so ashamed. Will be calling someone about this situation. Learn how to take care of the animals. Someone should be out there to check on them and stuff. If you are going to have these animals fenced in, then you seriously gotta take care of them!

GREAT PLACE FOR FAMILY AND AWESOME BLUEGILL FISHIN SOME OF THE BIGGEST BLUEGILL IVE EVER SEEN

So quiet, beautiful place for a walk or fishing

Fun relaxing place to be.

Great place to learn about turn of the century farm family culture... learning center and store were so much fun to visit!

Nice trail, have a tendency to be muddy and stay that way a while after.

Kids and I enjoyed this place so much. Even though we went on a weekday we still got to walk around see the pony ride area I had no idea you could ride horses, see farm animals, big pond that you do not need lisence to fish and old store has bait and anything else you may need while at carriage hill. Very helpful and friendly lady at the Old country store that has also trinkets and toys, jams, jewelry ect made all by local craftsman (which I love) and cant wait to go on a weekend trip to see the big farmhouse and tons outbuildings come to life showing what living in 19th century was all about

What a wonderful way to spend time with my grandson! We always have so much fun playing inside and out at Carriage Hill MetroPark.

Beautiful scenery. And there are plenty of lakes to go fishing with the family.

I have always loved this metropark. Nice trails around a big pond and a fun little historical farm.

Like taking a step back in time, and the penny candy at the general store is good too.

Great place with people who work hard to bring the past to life

So much fun. Walked around the lake with my kids and had a great time.

Take my kids here they have of fun. There is horse back riding

Fantastic place for family

Love the farm! The experience was great and the feel was real. But I feel as if the animals look like they need more attention. However they are all very sweet. Ive never met a sheep that isnt shy but all of them love people.

My favorite place!

Nice place to go with kids. The fokes that work around the farm are nice with a lot of knowledge.

Great place for the dogs.

Nice and peaceful park.

Hardly any fish, and some of the debris needs to be cleaned out.

All the volunteers were great and nice to talk too. I love the living history of Carriage Hill.

Dirt trails a bit washed out, but very nice park.

Great customer service. My kiddo loved the horse riding lessons

Amazing. Great place to bring kids. Lots of fun learning opportunities like blacksmithing demonstrations and an old fashion farm house.
