Findley State Park is an Ohio state park located in Wellington, a small village in northern Ohio, United States. It was originally known as the Findley State Forest. A dam forming a lake was completed in 1956. The forest area became a state park in 1950, with a size of 838 acres (339 ha), after it was donated to Lorain County by Judge Guy B. Findley c. 1936. Findley later served as the president of the Ohio Forestry Association and vice president of the American Forestry Association.
