Paradise Lake was an amusement park located in eastern Ohio in the United States. The park was located at the interchange of Interstate 70 with State Route 513. It was located in rural Guernsey County, Ohio, between Quaker City and Fairview. Paradise Lake was intended to be a major amusement park when it opened on 1 July 1981. The park was planned to cover 2,000 acres (8.1 km2), but only 70 acres (280,000 m2) were developed in the park's first, and only completed, phase. Paradise Lake operated for only two summers before the land and facilities were sold at auction on 18 October 1983. Paradise Lake marketing materials always included "A Phil Fry Enterprise" under the park name.
