Mentor

The landscape around Mentor is a low lakeshore plain beside Lake Erie, which has shaped both the urban form and local economy. East of Cleveland in Lake County, the city combines residential districts and busy commercial corridors with direct access to Ohio’s Lake Erie shore. Mentor Marsh State Nature Preserve safeguards an extensive wetland area near the waterfront, and Headlands Beach State Park lies on the city’s northeastern edge. Mentor is also closely associated with Lawnfield, the former home of President James A. Garfield, now preserved as the James A. Garfield National Historic Site.
