Very spacious and has agility features for training. 6+ foot fence around the whole park. Was a bit muddy but someone put hay in the entry way to keep it maintained.

I love this dog park! It's not only a short 7 minute drive, but it's well maintained and is a large park. They have a small dog area and then the larger dogs make up the rest of the space. Barry will not let me be if we are not going every day, so I'm there every day! There is a picnic table and shelter, disposal bags are usually stocked and in summer, a small pool. The dogs who frequent are almost always well-behaved and friendly. The people are great! I enjoy talking to all the dog Mom's and Dad's. All in all, a great dog park!

There have been some incidents where a dog becomes unruly but in my experience, this is rare

Can't really say much to the negative, it's a decent sized dog park. They have a couple kiddie pools that you can fill up to let your pup cool off. Would be just that much better if the wood chips were not a thing.

We take our dog here almost every morning. It is a nice open space for our husky to run. There is water, small pools, and some toys available. Be aware though that it can be muddy after a rain shower.

Our dog had a great time with the other dogs! Seems like owners clean up after their dogs and there was a baby pool for cool down time

Great place for my dogs to run and play. Wide open areas, there are tennis balls and Frisbee's scattered all over to play with, and a few benches for the human counterparts to sit on. There is an area for smaller dogs as well as large dogs and water bowls provided. Would recommend. Dog-friendliness Completely caged in, a duo gate area to prevent any escapees, water bowls provided, but would recommend bringing water as the city hasn't turned the water fountain back on yet from the winter.

Live bringing my dog here. Huge park and they have a running hose and little kiddie pool for the dogs to play in. Very spacious. They even have a nice shaded area as well.

Loved the large area for the dogs BUT it’s mostly dirt with some grass. Wood chips would be super appreciated. I’ve been to other dog parks, and they’re very nicely mulched. I don’t have a muddy, stinky dog when playing in mulch!

Well it is definitely well fenced!! Unless your dog can jump 12 ft High you should be okay. It is quite a walk up to the front but you have a choice of a concrete pad that is short but steep or a handicap sidewalk that is long and winding, but at least you have a choice! The water faucet is actually outside of both of the parks but the Ingenuity of some parkgoer shows through as they hooked up a hose and just ran it into the park. The ground is mostly grass but is a sand pit right underneath the awning structure and then there is a pile of wood chips kind of over there by itself? There are not a lot of trees but there is a lot of room to run and somebody has brought and left a few plastic pools. But the dogs are all friendly and the people are very nice!! They all seem to know each other, also.
