Virginia Kendall State Park Historic District
Virginia Kendall State Park Historic District, Historic park district in Peninsula, Ohio.
The Virginia Kendall State Park Historic District contains 530 acres of natural landscape with sandstone ledges marking prehistoric edges of Lake Erie.
Cleveland industrialist Hayward Kendall obtained this property as a hunting retreat, and after his death in 1927, his wife Agnes transferred it to Ohio.
The Civilian Conservation Corps constructed buildings using local sandstone and wormy chestnut, integrating structures with the natural terrain of the park.
The park offers numerous trails, four main shelters, a lake, sledding hills, and open spaces for recreational activities throughout all seasons.
The Octagon Shelter stands on a knoll while the Ledges Shelter follows a rectilinear layout parallel to a natural ledge wall.
