Visiting the dog park can be a joyful activity for both you and your furry friend—but aggressive encounters can quickly […]
Located in the heart of Sterling Heights, the Dodge Park Splash Pad is a popular destination for families and kids, featuring a variety of water play amenities like a water slide, splash bucket, and multiple interactive water toys. Its well-maintained grounds and free access for Sterling Heights residents make it a sought-after spot, especially during warm weather months. Restrooms are conveniently available nearby and praised for their cleanliness and thoughtful amenities such as emergency Narcan kits.
The park offers a safe and clean environment, with lifeguards present during splash pad operation and a fenced-in area around the water features. While primarily known as a children’s splash pad, the surrounding Dodge Park includes playgrounds and multi-use spaces, making it a vibrant and community-focused place. Although the splash pad itself isn’t specifically designated as a dog park, pet owners might benefit from Dodge Park’s broader grounds and green spaces. For those seeking dog-friendly activities or pet-friendly trails in Sterling Heights, Dodge Park’s main area is easily accessible and welcoming for families and their furry companions.
Free for locals, others pay a few bucks.
Great new splash pad with a water slide, splash bucket and quite a few water toys for kids. “Lifeguards” on duty. No vending machine or store nearby. Restrooms close by in the Dodge Park. Great spot for kids!
What a nice place! The maintenance at the park is next level. The free concerts were an amazing experience. TY SH!
I did not use the Splash Pad, but I used the public restroom located next to it. It was very clean and stocked with toilet paper and hand soap. Families Against Narcotics also installed a Free Overdose Emergency Kit with Narcan/Naloxone inside the women’s bathroom (and probably the men’s also) which is amazing. These need to be everywhere.
Clean, Safe and the kids always have a great time. I love that there’s playgrounds right outside the fences so if you want to take a break or just be done with the splash pad you can head over and let the kids play on the jungle gym.
Love this place so much. I can’t believe how close it is to our house, and the kids love it here. It’s free for Sterling Heights residents, which is great! And it’s safe. You don’t have to worry about the kids that much. I wish they could make it even bigger, like add a pool or more slides. It will be amazing 🙂
