Shaker Lake provides a natural area in the middle of the city, where you can spot wildlife and have a relaxing walk around the lake. The lake was created 185 years ago by damming the Doan Brook to be used by a sawmill. It was donated by the Shaker Heights Land Company in 1895 to the city of Cleveland with the purpose of creating a park.
