Its well kept clean place to bring your dog(s). But it could get hot on sunny days, has very little shady places and not many things to intertan your dog(s) and not tree’s or bushes.
My friend and I really liked this dog park. The people and their dogs were friendly and respectful. The park was relatively clean. It was rather busy too so my dog had a lot of other dogs to play with.
This is such a wonderful park, since they closed the Red wing dog park we are always looking for new parks, we went to cannon falls first, nice size park, alot of dog poop everywhere and very smelly.
So we googled and seen Northfield. Very clean, open, large fenced area to run and play. This was our first time their and we will be back!
The owners of the dogs all seen very friendly and understanding of each other. Which in return helps the dogs enjoy their time and play better.
Well done Northfield! We go to alot of parks and this one is on my list of top 3..

I took my last dog here for his first visit to a dog park. Park was fine. We didn’t see any uncleanned dog messes. There were 5 dogs there. My dog normally socializes with other dogs fine which he did. Everyone was polite, place was clean and dogs well behaved.
