Reviews
Dog Park is a single fenced area with one double gated door located just on the other side of a pavilion off a gravel parking lot.
Several picnic tables within the park and garbage inside the gates.
Medium sized in total including a grass field, some wooded paths, and a pond.
Pond was not in good swimming condition at this moment (likely due to lack of rain). It was SO MUDDY!
Water spout was on site but was not functioning.
Trails are simply worn down terrain. Trails in the wooded area are narrow and riddled with roots and holes.
There was only one other person at the dog park so it is hard to gauge popularity.
I love bringing Daphne to this dog park. I had taken my other Ol English Bulldog to this park at the end of her years. And now I am making new memories with Daphne.
Great dog park. Big enough for dogs too run- Also has trails around the pond to walk around with you dog. Don’t let your dogs go in the water. My dog got Gardia from this place. Also People don’t pick up poop so be weary of that here. Otherwise I’d give this place 4 stars
Huge fenced in area for dogs to explore in woods, run in open grass, or splash in the pond. Please remember to clean up after your dog, not everyone does.
Clean dog park with a large fenced in area for your pups to play! There’s also a beach for your dogs to enjoy on hot days. Not a very busy dog park but the regulars are great! The bathrooms, playground, and picnic area are a big plus!
