Cranberry Township, Township in Butler County, Pennsylvania, United States
Cranberry Township is a municipality in southwestern Butler County that spans residential neighborhoods, commercial areas, and outdoor recreation facilities. The township includes several parks, a water recreation area, and a public golf course for community use.
The first European settlers, Matthew and William Graham, arrived in 1796 under the Depreciation Land program. Their settlement formed the foundation for the community that would develop in this area.
The township maintains three major parks, an open-air waterpark, and an 18-hole municipal golf course for community recreation and social gatherings.
The area is best explored by car as it is a sprawling residential community spread across many streets. Main facilities like parks and the golf course are distributed throughout the township and accessible via local roads.
Wild cranberries once grew abundantly along Brush Creek before disappearing in the 20th century. The township's name preserves this memory of the landscape's natural heritage.
