It is a playground for boaters in the summer but it is so much more with the art and foodie scene as well as all the other attractions. Popular watering holes abound, and the Browns Stadium and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame are along the waterfront, as well. The lake is often referred to as the walleye capital of the world.

Further into the city are world class museums and health care facilities. Three major league teams call Cleveland home. Playhouse Square is second only to Broadway - a real play-goers delight.
