Merrymeeting Dog Park
Merrymeeting Dog Park is a spacious, fenced dog park located along a scenic bike and walking path near the river. The park features separate areas for small and large dogs, ample room for dogs to run, and is equipped with water fountains (seasonal), waste stations with bags and trash bins, and some bench seating. The path to the park is paved and wheelchair accessible, though some navigation challenges exist with GPS. The park is shaded by trees and popular among dog owners for its natural beauty and welcoming atmosphere.

We go walking here weekly. It’s the perfect place to snag some photos from the river and nature. It’s gorgeous out here for every season.
The dog park is a fun place to watch. Tons of happy pups running around and playing.
Very large fenced area. Separate area for small and large dogs. Clean, grass with some bench seating, walking path along a river. It is a quarter mile (at most) to the dog park. The GPS does NOT find it and sends you on a wild goose chase. You have to come down Water Street to the end (or ask locals, that’s how we found it!).
Great park, fenced in with plenty of room for dogs to run. Park at the boat launch and it’s a short, paved walk to the park. There’s two separate areas for small and big dogs. Water fountains are turned on when weather is warmer. Waste stations are available to pick up after your pups. Avoid weekends and evenings if you prefer a less busy environment. The only reason for 4 and not 5 stars is that the directions were wrong on Google maps. We had to ask someone in the neighborhood who was kind enough to tell us.
I was confused when I went to 94 Water St. and didn’t see it, but you have to walk under the bridge and then another bridge. Don’t give up.
Large park set along the bike/walking path (1/4 mile to get to the park from the lot). Water on site, along with bags abd trash . Shade from the trees only, though – and none of the benches were shaded.
Separate sections for large and small dogs.
