West Mill Creek Park
West Mill Creek Park is a charming and peaceful dog park nestled next to a creek, offering a beautiful and small walkable area for dogs to run off-leash and play. The park features shady, cool surroundings with picnic benches dispersed throughout. There is access to the creek for dogs who enjoy water play, though the water is shallow and not ideal for swimming. The park is kid-friendly and well-maintained with provided doggy poop bags and some trash bins near the entrance. Parking is available but limited, and the trail loop is short, making it a quick and enjoyable visit.

Our favorite Doggie Park to visit, especially in summer! 🐾🐶
One of the most charming dog parks I’ve been to. Nestled next to a creek this dog park is absolutely gorgeous. There’s plenty of space for the dogs to run and access to the creek fir dogs who like to play in the water.
I read numerous reviews before going to the West Mill Creek Park. Most were spot on. They provide doggy poop bags. Although one review mentioned that there were many trash cans, the only trash cans I found were at the beginning of the trail. Regardless, the trails were clean and it appears the humans pick up after their pets. There are no facilities, e.g., port-a-potties for humans and no running water other than the creek.
The park is shady and cool with numerous picnic benches dispersed throughout. I was surprised by how short the trail loop was, definitely less than 1/3 mile per my watch, but I passed many people and their pets doing multiple laps.
There are many places to access the creek safely. As one review previously noted, the water is not very deep. My 80 lb German Shepherd Dog was unable to actually swim in any of the places we tried. Of course, it is early September, so we will try again after there has been more rain.
The people were friendly, although most did nothing more than say hello, even if the puppies went off to play together. It was not a very talkative group this morning among the humans, but the dogs got along great. There were no dog fights and at one point there was a half dozen dogs playing down at the creek.
As others have mentioned, the parking lot is small and there doesn’t appear to be any other location that you can legally park if the lot is full. Since the loop is so short, however, I would expect that cars come and go with a quick turnover.
This review was from a Saturday morning visit from 7:30 until 9.
Beautiful, small , walkable dog park with water running threw it. Lovely! Well maintained. Small parking area.
Beautiful spot to go and your dog can run around without a leash. The water streams was so relaxing. Definitely the place to got, peaceful experience
