About

The Grand Valley Preserve, a former gravel excavation site, was acquired by the Village of Indian Hill in 2002. Located in Camp Dennison, the 379 acre site has been the focus of a reclamation project to restore wildlife and the Preserve’s natural beauty.

Due to the restoration, a few miles of beautiful walking trails have been created, and the previous separate lakes have been combined to form one large lake, great for canoeing and fishing. Bring your binoculars and camera, there are many species of birds, waterfowl, and wildlife for you to observe. Come and enjoy the beauty of nature, and the serenity that Grand Valley has to offer.


Access

Entrance to Grand Valley is restricted to residents of Indian Hill or residential customers of the Indian Hill Water Works.  An access card is required to operate the gate at Grand Valley and each Indian Hill household or residential water customer can receive one access card at no charge. An additional card may be purchased for $10.00. There is a limit of 2 cards per household. Access cards are available only at the Indian Hill Administration Building. A Photo ID will be required.

Access cards are only to be possessed by members of the household that the card was issued to.  The access cards are not to be loaned to anyone. Card holders may bring no more than two guests into the Preserve at a time and are required to accompany them at all times while at Grand Valley.
