About Pleasant Township Park
Pleasant Township Park is a community park with approximately 60 acres of preserved green space located on the north side of Owens Road West about a quarter mile west of Smeltzer Road.

Open daily dawn to dusk; paved parking lot with handicap parking designation; paved walkway to shelter house, picnic tables, and a portion of the trail-in-the-woods; accessible portable restroom; swing set for small children; grills at shelter house and picnic table area; wetland; abundant wildlife; windmill and prairie garden; 30 acres of native prairie; approximately 2 miles of marked trails; benches along the trail and wetland area; purple martin colony; bluebird nesting trail; dogs on a leash are welcome.

The park was once farmland that had been owned by the Seiter Family since the late 1800’s. In 1999, the Pleasant Township purchased a parcel of farmland and woods from Caroline Seiter, with a portion set aside for a township park. The park has been developed in 3 phases with help of funding from Ohio Department of Natural Resources NatureWorks and Land and Water Conservation Fund grants, and Ohio Public Works Commission Clean Ohio Conservation Fund.
