The Hunterdon County Off-Leash Dog Area
The Hunterdon County Off-Leash Dog Area offers a large, well-maintained space divided into separate sections for small and large dogs, making it convenient for dog owners. The park is wheelchair accessible and suitable for children. Amenities include benches, a solar picnic table, and water bowls available via an external pump. While the park provides a good environment overall, there are concerns about the cleanliness, specifically dog waste management, and the muddy ground during certain times. Shade is limited as some trees have been removed.

Great place to take the dog,right now very muddy
Well maintained dog park.
Nice dog park, wish there was shade over the benches. Some playgrounds have a man made covering. Heard trees were removed, think that was a good call.
3 star dog park both sides for large n small dogs are very large. The water pump well is outside the park n plenty of bowls that look clean. Benches n a solar picnic table. Very clean, for the most part, there were some dog poop not picked up by the owner. I’m not sure why ppl are so disgusting and don’t pick up after their dog. My only 2 complaints are the weight size of the big n small dog areas as it says small dogs up to 20lbs n for big dogs 20 plus lbs. So not right as I have 2 mini dogs that weigh over 29lbs n they should not be running n engaging with large dogs as they would be stepped on. Also one dog per person is insane to even suggest that as it should be 2 dogs max per person.
The only thing positive I can say about this dog park is that it was large and there were two sides of it. One side was for larger dogs, and the other side was for smaller dogs. However, Instituting a 20 pound weight limit on the small dog side was ridiculous. How is a 25 pound dog going to safely play on the large dog side with a 100 pound dog??!! My biggest complaint and the reason I will never ever go to this dog park again is that it was riddled with large piles of dog poop even on the small dog Side. I brought both of my dogs there and actually spent the entire time picking up piles of poop into the bags that I brought with me. Thankfully, I brought them because all of the bags in the bag stations were empty! Why even have a dog park if it’s not going to be taken care of?!? The grass was long, and therefore you have to worry about ticks. I was so disgusted when I left there. I had to disinfect both of my dogs before they even got into my car. Gross!
