Fixer-uppers and refurbished houses
Mud Brook extends northeast from Portage Trail to the west side of Ohio Route 8 and the Graham Square Shopping Center. The neighborhood resembles a web, where gridded residential streets connect to the major roadways, spreading over the city's north side. Lots are typically under a quarter acre, with manicured front lawns framed by sidewalks and grassy medians. Most backyards have a tree or two standing at least a couple dozen feet over the houses. Bungalows, Cape Cods, and Foursquare Colonial Revivals with three to four bedrooms are the most common homes around. "There's a lot of older homes getting remodeled, but there are still a few left that are untouched," says Realtor Andy Bourn of Berkshire Hathaway Home Services Stoufer Realty Inc., who has sold properties around town for almost 10 years. The new and refurbished homes cost between $120,000 and $360,000, while the remaining fixer-uppers sell for between $65,000 and $100,000.

Indoor water park at the Natatorium
There are four outdoor parks, a hiking trail and an extensive indoor recreation center in and near Mud Brook, all while the Cuyahoga River flows Downtown. Linden Park is in the center-east side of Mud Brook and is a popular destination for families because of its extensive playground area, sandbox, and in-ground kiddy pool. The Mud Brook Greenway Trail is a 1-mile footpath running through forests, open fields and marshes in the northeast. Less than 2,000 feet from the community's south end, The Natatorium is Cuyahoga Falls' famous indoor recreation center. Home to a gym, running track, a multi-story playground and an indoor water park with slides and an Olympic-sized swimming pool, the center requires payment for entry and annual membership. Downtown also provides some of its own outdoor activities. "Kayaking is really popular on the river," says Bourn, pointing to the kayak launch downtown.

Cuyahoga Falls building new school
The Cuyahoga Falls City School District is the resident educational resource, earning an overall Niche score of C-plus. Gordon DeWitt is a first choice for many and receives a B from Niche. Students then move on to Bolich Middle School, which gets a C-plus score from Niche. Cuyahoga Falls High is the last step for most students. The school receives a C-plus score from Niche and has a student-run YouTube channel, where they post morning briefings, skits and student interviews. In 2022, the city approved constructing a new high school on the eastern edge of Mud Brook. When the campus opens, students from grades six to twelve will attend classes in separate parts of the building. As of February 2024, the district reported the project to have reached the halfway mark.

Festivals on Front Street
Mud Brook and most other Cuyahoga Falls neighborhoods rely on Downtown for significant events.

The Riverfront Irish Festival takes place over a June weekend and includes live-stage performances and alcohol vendors. Nightmare on Front Street is the local Halloween festival featuring live music and alcohol, and it also hosts a costume contest.

The Workz has so much to do
While people in Mud Brook typically enjoy nightlife Downtown, the neighborhood has a few restaurants and stores of its own. Eddy's Deli & Restaurant is between Mud Brook and North Village and is popular in both neighborhoods for its large portion sizes, Reubens and breakfast menu. Over in Mud Brook's northeast corner, the Graham Square Shopping Center offers chain restaurants and some retailers such as Walmart, Lowe's and Save A Lot. Some popular Downtown establishments include Leo's Italian Social and The Workz on the Riverfront. The Workz is especially popular for having a bowling alley, an arcade and a stage for live music. In the summer and autumn, many drive 9 miles north to Szalay's Farm & Market to buy fresh produce. Summit Mall is almost as far, with an 8-mile drive west to Fairlawn.
