Amazing neighborhood dog park. I’ve lived in several cities and this is one of the best neighborhood dog parks. Nothing special to it except it’s size, convenience, and the park staff.
Also a washing station and small dog park are there too.
It’s currently free for all, but that may become local residents only in the future.
Either way, if you need a large park for your pup to run off some energy this is easily worth the drive.
Always clean. Always well mannered dogs. Large park to run or just stroll under shady areas.
It is indeed open, fully fenced and function perfectly, plus clean thanks to responsible owners picking up. Fabulous walking path with benches and drinking fountain. Really wonderful variety of beautiful dogs socializing.
*Unfortunately there are posted signs stating it will soon be a “membership” dog park. Well that absolutely STINKS because traveling dogs want to socialize too. It will be a very unwelcoming place when that occurs. Bah Humbug to the snobby Scrooge(s) who thought up that. It will cease to be on course in the dog park tour of America. It is exclusionary unfair to declare the dog friendly gated section of a PUBLIC park only for advance subscribers. Kindly reconsider that move.
One of my favorite parks. Mainly because I grew up in the area. It was a no brainer deciding where I would take my birthday photos.
There was construction happening so I was limited to where I could take the photos. Still, the park did not let me down.
There was a soccer tournament happening, there is a snowball stand inside ( Best snowballs in town). There is a carousel and a very healthy community of ducks at this park.
I was expecting a small park with decent spots, but was blown away by the beautiful trees, large open spaces, and dog-friendly atmosphere. We saw the keeper patrolling in their car as well a decent bit, so it’s a safe place for young ones.
I also like that I can’t see the road or hear the interstate, so it feels private and relaxing. Definitely recommended coming here.
