Located in the heart of Statham, Robert L. Bridges Park offers a wonderful dog park experience for pet owners looking for a quiet, shaded spot to let their dogs play off-leash.

Ample shade and a relaxing atmosphere make this Statham dog park a community favorite for relaxing, walking, or letting your dog socialize safely.
Not much to the park. Bathrooms were closed, but the walking trail was decent. Not many people, so it was an enjoyable walk and served its purpose.
A great place to come and either walk a paved course around the baseball diamond or take one of the trails to get a better hike in.
we love this dog park and come many days a week. it’s shaded and has a water fountain and bag station, picnic tables for humans, and tunnels for little dogs. today it seems there’s new wood chips down which is awesome because it used to be mostly mud and spikey seeds. I only wish there were many dogs here!
Nice quiet park. We came here for the dog park, which is a really nice one, hence 5 stars! There is also a baseball fields and a couple of swings so the kids could have some fun too. Nice place to bring the dogs for sure! Also some walks which we didn’t yet get to explore.
At first glance this park seems pretty small but if you follow the wooded trail it goes farther than you think. My kids and I spent an hour here walking on the trails in the forest, taking different paths. Our favorite was “ivy circle”. There is also a log cabin blacksmith shop with old farm tools in it, and some baseball fields. The playground is only a swing set. We will definitely be back to walk on the trails again. You could probably also bring bikes on the trails. The are flat in a lot of places.
