Reviews
Large fenced in area with tables and water bowls but not much else. When we came here, it was VERY CROWDED. Definitely not a good park to bring a shy or nervous dog to.
Compared to other parks, it’s just OK. On the smaller side of what I’ve seen. And there is no water inside the dog areas, you have to walk down to the regular park area to fill up jugs.
But the biggest issue is just the dogs we run into. It’s not the parks fault. But there are just too many poorly socialized dogs going here. To the point we can’t just relax and let the dogs play. Bit disappointing really. It’s also poorly lit at night. Which for fall and winter is really bad. Since it starts to get dark around 6 if not sooner.
It was very conveniently located, but we had no idea it was there. There are separate off-leash areas for big dogs & small or older dogs. There are trees & plenty of space. It looks like there is a supply of poop bags, just in case. It has its own parking lot & a paved walkway.
They have a drinking fountain! Also they have a Pavillion with picnic tables, a baseball field, walking trails, and a playground. Playground includes slides, regular swings, baby swings, individual spinning rides, and more!
New 1st time pup parent here and he had a blast!
The park is large enough for pets to have their own space and it has a closed off area for baby pets and ones that’s aren’t too social.
We love it
