Nice open park with lots of other little dogs for my cocker spaniel to play with
This is the best dog park I have ever seen, heard about, and/or been to!!! It is HUGE!!!! Water dishes, water, poop bags, waste receptacles, and seating all throughout the park. Our dogs loved it! We were there for well over an hour. We will definitely visit again if in the area. Highly recommend it!
This is a nice dog park that is close to us and we come here frequently. It’s mostly well maintained but could definitely use some work. There’s almost always huge mud puddles even after days of sunshine, the water doesn’t always work, and it would be nice if there were some more “obstacles” for the dogs to play on. But again, great for a free park!!
The park seem to be kept very neatly the the grass is cut and garbage containers are available throughout the park so that people can kindly and properly dispose of their trash. Often times in some of these parks there are not enough garbage receptacles as a result people litter. But I must have counted at least five of them in different locations. There are signs on the gate that do inform everyone that there is not to be any vaping or smoking on the property. This is great because although it’s outside not everyone wants to inhale smoke. They have a small pavilion that has approximately nine tables for people who want to come out and eat and picnic. Across from it there is the playground with the tubes for kids to enjoy. Across the map there’s a water fountain I was told they have fish in the pond I’m not sure one day I’ll discover it. However there’s no signs here that say danger. I think all lakes and pond should have signs that warn people of the dangers that could possibly take place. Right now the lake is filled with vegetation which would probably make it a little difficult for people to fish it. I understand that the vegetation is needed but it would be so nice if they would have someone to maintain the pond where they clean out the vegetation to a degree that people can fish without being tied up on the weeds.There’s also a second pavilion which has a number of tables so it does make for a good location for people who want to come out and picnic. He’s also a monument recognizing Robert Nathan Isseks. One of the strangest things I saw in this park is a chest press. there is a portion of the park where there’s a seesaw and monkey bars where someone wanted to get their exercise in as far as calisthenics they can. But to see a chest pressmachine in a park that is absolutely wild. Not only why but different and I like that idea. Not only that but there’s also a row machine. I have to get this place a four-star as stated.
There is so much green space at this park. The dogs can run and roam around. They even have obstacles they can play on.
