Chardon

Located approximately 35 miles east of downtown Cleveland, Chardon is among the early communities in the Western Reserve. Today, Chardon remains a town rich in history and culture, with its square at the heart of the city. Many activities and events are held there throughout the year, including summer concert series, car shows, farmers' market, and most notably, the annual Geauga County Maple Festival, which celebrates the county's maple syrup production industry and kicks off the spring season.
