I really like this park. There are two sides. One for big dogs and one for small dogs. I go in the morning and its usually pretty empty. There are a lot of people at the actual park while only one or two maybe at the dog parks. The big dog park is closest to the car parking and the fence runs along the back length of the park. There’s a nice open area with benches and a really nice walking trail in the wooded area. There’s a lot of room for fetch and chase. The small dog park is next to the big dark park on the right. There’s a huge open field for your dog to play in and a nice wooded walk trail in the back with benches. We have played on both sides and my dog lives them both. There’s a water fountain for humans and a faucet to fill water containers for dogs. There are also poop bags and big trash cans that look pretty clean.
Very nice park on maybe 3 acres fenced in for large dogs and another acre for small dogs. Park also has a area for kids and also tennis courts. The water outlet by the dog park area was not working due to the time of year they probably shut the water off so the pipes would not freeze, but the water pipe by the kids area was working so I filled up one five gallon bucket and two gallon buckets of water for the dogs. Also has three picnic tables and plenty of trees come summertime that will be a very nice shady area.
A wonderful place to bring your dog, shaded areas,trails to walk, and completely fenced in.
We started taking our dogs right when they built the park early 2020. We moved from Charlotte short after but this was our go to park during shutdown. No one was ever there! Not sure if they have these same wood chips now, but they were not great if your dogs are hard stoppers when playing fetch like mine.
Great neighborhood park! Super family and kid friendly! The playground is huge and spread out – it Has slides, climbing dome, different swings, see saw, and lots of places to hide for little toddlers. Plenty of places to sit for parents & options in the shade when it’s sunny. Splash pad is a great way for little ones to cool off – it gets crowded on weekends ( open May thru September).
Parking loops all around the park – but can be limiting cause this park attracts a nice crowd – of all ages. Restrooms are decent. Great place to ride bike and roller skate/ blade cause there’s plenty of smooth ground as well as grassy fields to play soccer, frisbee, football – just so much to do!! We go here multiple times a month!
