How Park Off - Leash Area

My dog loves this place. In fenced part of it he plays with other dogs and in the opened field he runs after a ball. The place doesn't have drinking fountain for dogs, but some people keeping an eye that there is always a gallon of water around. I bring my dogs water bottle, though. Playground Yes, a bit away Restrooms A restroom box near construction place. Dog-friendliness Very dog friendly Picnic area No picnic area

This is a great place to take your dog. This dog park is pretty big. My dog loves this place. The only thing why I cannot give this dog park a 5-star review is because I wish it has a water fountain in the park. Sometimes I forget to take a water bottle for my dog and if nobody brings water, dogs are thirsty. In other dog parks that I have been to there were fountains for dogs. It was in Florida tho. Overall, this place is good. During the winter, the ground becomes super slippery like on the skating rink. After the rain, it is kind of dirty in there. My dog looks like a pig. But those are weather conditions and it does not relate to my review. It is just a sharing of the experience that people can be prepared for it.

Great place for dogs to run unleashed. It’ll be better with some grass for the dogs. But there are some trees and benches to sit. The games for dogs are pretty cool.

Great for dogs to run around and play. In a quiet neighborhood where other people and dogs come and interact. There is a play structure for the dogs to play in, a small bench for pet parents to sit down on

This dog park is just convenient because it is in an area that is close to almost everyone and yes people don’t pickup after their dogs. BUT, if you don’t want your dog to get sick ,hurt and attack by other dogs...this is not the park for your dog. If you decide to take your dog, just keep in mind that anything can happen, keep an eye on your dog at all times and be prepared to deal with some very rude, clueless irresponsible dogs owners. Trust me I witnessed so much in that park the good, the bad and the ugly.

It’s a perfect park except for the people who are hit or miss. They bring dangerous toys and there’s no rules or small dogs section so the small dog owners are always on edge.

So many friendly dogs and people, and a HUGE fenced in area for the pooches. It's just a plain area with gravel and grass and trees, there's no doggy equipment, so I recommend bringing water.

I find this park to be quite nice! Very friendly dog park, which is always busy! There is a basketball court however, it has double rooms. A big green grass want to play… As well as a playground for kids! Five stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Nice dog park. Technically limited to Watertown residents. The fenced park is mostly grass and has several levels from the gate down the slope toward the street. Limited water access though.

Great off leash area. Usually a few dogs there during the afternoon, and can get packed (in a good way) during peak times. Usually a water bowl or two laying around, but bring your own water to fill them. I do wish that some people would monitor their aggressive dogs a bit better, but that's not a unique gripe to Howe Park, and most folks do a good job.

One of the kindest dog parks I've been to and both of the people and dogs all get along it has a double gate where you enter,has buckets for trash as well 💩 and sometimes has poop bags for you to clean up but unfythere are people who take more than they need only flaw is the water spicket is on outside of building across the street Great for dogs and people together tank you time

Good but not great. No water and the park is a decent size but smaller than it appears. At least 30% is a fairly steep incline. So if you're older or have trouble walking, beware. There is a large field next to the park but dogs are supposedly only allowed on leash.

Good park with multiple fenced in areas for dogs. Bring your own water, however, as there are no fountains to be found.

Lots of people don't pick up after their dogs, gravel is pretty dirty, giardia in many pups who go there, Also gravel hurts my dogs paws!

We take our dog here almost every day. The dogs are friendly and so are their owners. If you bring your dog here enough people will get to know you.

A playful doggy's dream. And if there aren't any other pups to play with, you can always take Fido for a walk by the Charles. So: really kinda perfect. 🐶👌 …

Decent dog park with plenty of shade and running space. It has a fully fenced in area next to a grassy field. It is right next to the river trail if you're looking for an extened outting with you doggo.

This dog park always has friendly dogs romping around and it's close to the Charles River walking path. Very big enclosed area but no water source. There is a bag dispenser though.

Dogs all get along with each other and the people are nice the dog park has a combo of gravel and grass trees double gate at the entrance, large grass area on the other side the fence,playground over all it's a great place for everyone Dog-friendliness The dogs look forward to seeing each other and remember one another

Great dog park! Everyone is very nice. Large area and clean. You should bring your own water though. There are bowls but the owners need to bring their own water to fill them up.
