Bluebelle Park is a hidden neighborhood park located off Bluebelle Way in Springfield, Oregon. Although not specifically a dog park, it offers lush green space, pet-friendly trails, and a welcoming vibe for dog owners looking for a peaceful walking area. The park’s layout features open grassy areas and walkways where you can enjoy a stroll with your dog on-leash and let your kids play safely nearby.
This recently redesigned park is popular with families for its modern playground equipment, including unique climbing structures and swings, as well as a basketball hoop. With bike and walking paths circling the park, it’s perfect for pet owners who want a safe, dog-friendly outing. Please note that the park does not have public restrooms, and amenities for dogs such as fenced areas, water stations, or waste bags are not provided.

My kids and I play basketball here every night around 9-10ish and it’s always pleasant… We’ve gotten pretty good at shooting hoops without any light, just the moon. So of course we’ll continue to keep 🏀 in there. ****

Awesome hidden gem. No road access so park next to the entrance on bluebell road and walk in, or there’s multiple neighborhood entrances.

I feel uncomfortable when visiting this park. First, because the entrances are unmarked, narrow, and tucked in between houses. It feels like trespassing. Second, once you’re in, you’re surrounded by private backyards. (Some with dogs that will bark at you until you leave.) Its WAY too intimate while also feeling a little sketchy because of the seclusion and “secret” location. Which brings me to my third and final point: there’s usually bad company. This is where and middle school tweens and teens go to bully each other, litter, and draw private parts on things.
