Regular maintenance, fresh bark/wood chip ground cover, and a clean setting are all points that make this park a trusted destination for dog owners throughout Hoffman Estates and the surrounding northwest suburbs of Illinois.
When they’re gonna fix the gate? We pay for membership but there are so many dogs without membership, and they tried to attack my dog. What are we even paying for…. Other than that love everything.
I have a big guy named Luka Longfellow the 3rd , pictured here. This place is fenced and large enough for him to really burn some energy. Half of it is wood chips and half of it is grass and they can run all over and there’s a few picnic tables to sit around. There is a separate area for smaller dogs with its own fence. Overall Not much of a view for adults but for the dogs it’s great. I’ll be bringing him here often.
You do have to pay a fee for the year/ season but let me tell you, it is worth it. There are agility courses; the dog walk could use a little maintenance and the watering stations. They have a small dog area and an all dog area, watering station and picnic benches. They recently just placed new bark/ wood chips and cut down all the weeds.
This place is great! For the most part, understandably so, everyone is so nice and will chat if you want to chat. I have a Belgian Mal which she can look very intimidating. Most people I have met that come to this dog park understand that you run the risk of a fight. Pictures are of the all dog park area.
Great place to let your dog to roam freely. I highly recommend it. They only thing I would change is the entrance gate. It is not secure. If somebody is walking in they can easily let other dogs escape. I like the solution that some other parks have. The double gate, you need to pass thru two gates to get to the park.
Great dog park. lots of agility and engagement obstacles for the dogs with water available on site, small in big dog areas. Somebody put up some nice swing hammock chairs to relax in lots of picnic tables, shade a blend of wood chips and grass areas doesn’t appear to get too muddy or mucky. Great community resource there is a key pass system. Really nice people, with well-mannered dogs.
