• Why this Ohio castle in the woods never got the mansion it was built for (wheninyourstate.com) — Squire's Castle in Willoughby Hills offers a free, year-round outing just 20 minutes from Cleveland, with easy parking and stroller-friendly paths. The roofless stone "castle" anchors scenic trails, picnic areas, wetlands, and nature programs, making it an accessible day trip for families, hikers, photographers, and even leashed dogs in every season.
