Vending machines and picnic tables. Signs that say that pet owners should not exercise their pets in the picnic areas but rather at the ends of the parking area, but with no one to enforce it dogs were all over the place. The area is clean. A lot of traffic dash I thought at first we wouldn’t find a parking space. One of the trees is suffering from a bad case of some kind of mold or fungus growing on it which is a shame because it’s a beautiful tree right at the front of the park area.
This is a beautiful place to visit and stop with bathrooms and vending machines picnic tables outside sidewalks and a place to take your fur babies if their traveling with you. The fur babies will love it too.
Clean space, lots of greenery. Pet relief area, parking can be a bit of a wait since it’s very busy. Vending machines available.
Clean restrooms and nice shady area. Had vending machines. Some of the card readers were offline, but thankfully we had cash to get some drinks- definitely paying for the convenience. I really appreciate that dogs are allowed in picnic area that really helps out travelers with their furry friends!
