As Robert Frost once penned, there is nothing like stopping by woods on a snowy evening. There’s something magical about watching quiet and graceful snowflakes coat the landscape in a fine frosting, particularly in a place as wondrous as Greater Cleveland. In all of Northeast Ohio, there is only one neighborhood and shopping district that transforms into a winter wonderland, and it is well worth experiencing. Its best feature is its tree-lined path, but its collection of celebratory festivities will capture your heart.
