Reviews
I stopped here on a day trip out to Frederick and it was great for my two small dogs. Very grassy and well-maintained. A nice covered bench. The other dogs there were nice and played well. Great pit stop!
It gets really muddy when it rains but they do switch which area is open every once in a while to avoid killing the grass too much. There’s a seperate fenced area for small dogs and puppies. Water fountains are on most of the year, except winter. Poop bags are available near the trash.
Huge dog park with separate areas for different sized dogs. A great idea if owners would stick to it! Currently very muddy but probably much nicer in dry weather. Backs up a nice walking path and creek.
Very nice dog park. Four enclosures – two for all dogs – one for medium dogs and one for small dogs. Water fountains, benches, waste stations, and shady areas with plenty of room to run.
Love this park. There is so much room for the dogs which is helpful for shy dogs like mine. They have separate big and little dog yards as well. Lots of poop bags and water fountains.
