Located at 701 Union St, this dog-friendly spot is wheelchair accessible and situated adjacent to public amenities including restrooms, a children’s playground, and picnic areas, though these are not directly connected to the dog run.

Reviews
This isn’t a dog park. It’s so small my dogs have no room to even run. It’s ridiculous. This project was a joke and a waste of money. They should expand maybe remove the parking lot or that grass area is a waste of space that could’ve been applied to the dog park. The whole this is so dumb. No one even uses it.
Hardly a dog “park”, and more of a large dog run. Benches at either end. About 80 feet long and 25 feet wide, sandy area with secure fencing around it. Clean area, poop bags & disposal bin available, and large parking lot is connected. Be sure to bring a ball or a toy to throw for your dog – not many dogs here for interaction/playing. Probably best for people meeting other people with dogs. Good, safe area for a small get-together with dogs you know.
Playground for kids, picnic tables & restroom nearby – but not connected (or visible to) the dog run.
Glad this is called a run and not a park. It’s a small fenced area filled with sand. I would consider it more of a dog relief area than much else.
Such a nice little park rest spot! Really felt the whole Coveed era was behind us as I enjoyed the company of real human beings outside listening to sweet smooth Jazz. The Michael Haggins Band soothed our senses that day. Hopefully, the attached schedule shows there’s more to come at The Playhouse Village!
It’s nice to have a gated place big enough for the dog to run off leash. I wish there were more little spots like this attached to parks.
