🐾 Kids at the Dog Park: Real Stories, Safety Risks & Smarter Solutions
If you’ve spent time at an off-leash park, you’ve probably seen it:A parent strolls in with a stroller 🚼 or […]
Smith Road Park is a small, peaceful park located along a creek, offering a relaxing atmosphere for dog walks and picnics. It includes a new pavilion with picnic tables, swings in a mulched area, and a gravel parking lot. The park is wheelchair accessible and is kid-friendly. There is great access to the creek for nature enjoyment, but note it is in a flood-prone area and does not currently have usable toilet facilities. The park encourages cleanliness and dog waste pickup.
All i wish is that they would of stocked some trout in the area ive been fishing there for 2 months and never saw a trout its alittle disappointing because it could give opportunity for local kids to pick up on a healthy hobby that can change lives
Relaxing area to walk the pup, watch ducks, throw a hook in a stream.
Please pickup after your dog. Keep the park clean and available.
I have been going here for a little while now. Here are the highlights:
New pavilion with picnic tables,
Recently graveled parking area,
Swings within a mulched area,
A small open field,
Great access to the creek.
A word of warning: this park is in a flood prone area. Best not to be here in a heavy rain event unless you a prepared for the water level to overtop the creek.
There is no usable toilet at this time.
Ate lunch here today and saw as many woodpeckers as I’ve ever seen. Downy, Hairy, Red-bellied, Nutchatches, you name it. Also some tufted titmice. Lovely.
Date of first visit was Sunday April 13th, 2025. Very small park that lacks various amenities like a playground or a walking track. The park is surrounded by a small creek.
