Chippewa Lake Park is an abandoned amusement park located in Chippewa Lake, Ohio, Medina County. It operated from 1878 through 1978, after the final owner, Continental Business Enterprises closed it due to a lack of attendance. The rides and structures were left largely untouched and unmaintained for over 45 years.

The property remained vacant and abandoned for years until being occupied by a movie complex, Toys R Us (closed in 2018) and office buildings. [54]
