About Landen-Deerfield Park
The Landen-Deerfield Park is located approximately 20 miles northeast of Cincinnati, Ohio at. This park is located in Deerfield Township, the most intensely populated township in the county, 3.73 miles northeast of I-71 and 2 miles south of Kings Island. The active play fields at Landen Park are subjected to intense local use for all organized team sports and the fields are frequently busy. However, there are also great opportunities for picnicking, trails, playground, basketball, tennis, a fishing lake, and a new amphitheater that are all available for use.

The nearest development is the Landen community, which is comprised of approximately 1,300 acres and borders the park on the east, north, and west with a population of approximately 13,000. However, residential development in the area has made this a nearly continuous residential community area. This park is used by everyone in the area, including residents of the township, and the city of Mason, 3 miles to the northwest, which has a population of 20,000 plus people. Deerfield Township has a population of 25,000 plus.

The total acreage is 95 acres of prime land, donated to the Warren County Park District by Joseph Landen for public recreation and was held in trust by the Nature Conservancy. Conveyance of land occurred on December 18, 1979. A Land and Water grant was applied for by the Park District, which was a 50-50 funding match for development. On June 18, 1979, the amount of $802,766.00 was awarded to the Park District, resulting in the Park District receiving $401,383.00 for the development of the Landen-Deerfield Park.
