It is a nice size dog park. The parking lot is only enough for about 8 cars. There is a nice entry area to prevent dogs from bolting from the area. They have a small area for the littler dogs, and the large area has some benches, corrugated tunnels, and a few other obstacles to entertain the dogs. The fencing could use some repair/maintenance to resolve some gaps, etc. There is no signage at the park establishing rules or even who to contact with issues. I will visit this park again, and hopefully, it will continue to improve. Restrooms There are no restrooms here.

Just a pleasant place to let your dog run around. There are a few chairs and toys at the park to enjoy.

The park is secured with double gates. The dogs that visit the park are friendly, and the owners, not so much. The park is small, but good enough to have large dogs socialize. There is water available for people and dogs. My reason for giving it three stars is because the dog owners do not pick up the p.. after their dogs, and there is p… everywhere. I will not go back. Playground Secure Restrooms No restroom Dog-friendliness The dogs are friendly Picnic area No picnic area

Has separate large and small dog areas, benches, trashcan, water fountain for humans and dogs, weave poles, tunnel, a gravel walking trail and a few mounds for the dogs to play on. There are even tennis balls and frisbees in case you forget to bring yours. The only complaint I have is that people don't pick up after the dogs so you have to be on the lookout for dog piles.

It is a pretty good park. The park has two dog areas one small dog and one large dog area. Joined in the middle by a small fenced in area. From the parking lot you enter into this area that joins the two separately fenced in areas for different size dogs. This area is great for any escape artist. They pretty much get trapped if they get out of their park. Both dog areas have fences completely around them so dogs are free to roam and secure from the public. Dog from the small area cannot get to the large area nor the large dogs get to the small area. In the small dog area it is just a grassy flat area no play items. The small dog area is probably 30 yards long by 10 yards wide in a rectangular shape. The small area has one metal bench in it. The large dog area is probably 75 yards long by 30 yards wide in a rectangular shape. In the middle there are three benches. In the large dog area there are play mounds and culverts for dogs to play on and in. The large dog area has a gravel walking track around the outside but inside the fence. The parks grass doesn’t get cut regularly. Also you have to bring your own water. There is a pretty new fountain in the safety area but it is broken. The water fountain has three spigots, parent, kids, & dogs sizes but it hasn’t work for about a year. Between the two dog parks in Fort Smith it is the smaller one which for our family we find it just the right size. Honestly if there was a working water fountain for dogs and the grass was maintained it would be five stars.

It is a nice place; however, dog owners are not picking up after their dogs. Might as well get rid of if owners will not be responsible. I don't like having to watch out for dog poop. Playground None Restrooms No Dog-friendliness Dog Park Picnic area No, but there is a bench and chairs.

Decent sized with partitions. No covering but has up. Overall, it's a good place to meet others with your dog

Great space for dogs to run and play, with specified yards for small and large dogs. But watch your step, it seems people are adverse to the responsibility and effort needed to pick up their dog's feces. There was an immense amount of poop all over the large dog yard (this isn't only inconsiderate but helps the spread of illnesses, both K9 and human. I would recommend pups are fully vaccinated and UTD on preventions before visiting this playground just in case.)

It is nice to be fenced! But, very small. Fort Smith needs a bigger dog park. But, thankful they have a place to take my dog when visiting.

More dirt than grass. Very secure. Not a good option after it rains if you don't want a muddy dog. We didn't care but you might. Has several tunnels, a couple hills and agility weave polls. Overall it needs some work but has potential.

great place if you have a energetic pup. every dog needs enough room to get his energy burned off especially if he gets the zoomies when hes excited like mine does. great place overall.

It's truly great! I was on a road trip driving through Fort Smith today. Stopping at this dog park was the highlight for my dog!

Official the worst dog park ever, there is NO ONE EVER there when we go. I have two bigger dogs in an apartment, they need room to play and to make friends but they seem more depressed here then at home. Disappointing every time. You have better luck driving up to Fayetteville and going to the IAMS park there. Nothing beats or comes close to the old dog park. Playground No playground, nothing for kids Restrooms No bathrooms Dog-friendliness Absolutely not. Flat, no grass no trees but 1, fences with holes there is some dog tunes and man-made hills but still bad. Picnic area None and no shade or chairs but 2 separated benches

Very nice park! Lots of seating availability, our puppy loved running through the tubes, lots of space, a working water fountain, and some toys around she was able to play with! Wish there were other animals there, but that’s not the parks fault. Very secure. She also loved going to the top of the hills!

It's okay, could be better though maintenance wise. Might be due to over use. Don't know who maintain or responsible. Playground Small Restrooms No Dog-friendliness Two gated areas Picnic area No

Great dog park for the community. Lots of friendly dogs, and a nice space for the dogs to run.

Love this place, Wife and I take our two dogs here to run off some energy when we get the chance to come here. Although our experience here sometimes gets ruined when a certain couple (or whatever they are) come here with their Red Hound, cute thing that howls when het gets here. However they ALWAYS come here so their dog can do his business, which is fine that dont bother me none, but they always make passive aggressively make it seem like they get upset everytime other people are at a PUBLIC DOG PARK. Their dog isnt fixed (I get not everyone has the money for that) but if you are so worried about your un-fixed dog causing issues and making everyone feel like they need to leave so your dog can use the bathroom in peace, then either find the money to get him fixed or come later at night where there is absolutely no one else in there. This is a PUBLIC dog park, get used to others being there or find somewhere else. Playground Not that many things but still a good place. Dog-friendliness Dogs and owners are the friendliest here.

Quite obviously made for the subdivision its attached to. It is very nice and new, a few great structures for the dogs to climb on and through. There was a lot of feces in the main area I'm guessing because no one want to take there poo bags home with them, the trash was overflowing.

Pretty quiet place but I usually come during the week so my dog can roam freely without me worrying about other dogs interactions. It's a large park with some quadrants blocked off for a more private or seclusive areas in case you're worried about other puppers. Big tubes and small hills so dogs can run and play. There are water fountains but they DO NOT work so bring some water bottles because someone is nice enough to leave some bowls around so you can give fresh water to the dogs.

Well….. it’s a park for dogs. Pretty basic and straight forward. The grass is pretty tall which is a slight turn off but all in all it’s not bad. Trust me I have seen worse FOR SURE.
