Joplin Dog Park

Hidden gem: Joplin Park in South Charleston. Children will enjoy the playground and there are lots of shaded places for picnics. Walking trails that happen to be well - maintained are perfect for a brief stroll or fast jog on. The park is clean, feels secure and also provides a peaceful break out of the city. Parking is straightforward and the location is seldom overcrowded. Joplin Park is a fantastic choice in case you would like a peaceful area to relax or even let your children play - though it's not a huge Park.

Nice spot for a quick potty break on a road trip

I'm traveling through and wanted my dog to have some exercise. Don't waste your time this place has no amenities very small all dirt and there's a black male (intact) dog just running loose maybe a local dog I don't know.

Very nice place to take your dog to play.

Great park! Suggested an edit on directions... Google Maps took me to the dead end road behind the Dog Park!

It's a good playground to let your kids play with other kids, good people out here and the benches are nice and convenient so you aren't far from your kid ever but the bathrooms are usually clogged up with no plungers so be prepared to hover if you need to use it that bad Playground Clean and nice condition playground equipment with alot of friendly kids to play with your kids Restrooms Clogged up toilets Dog-friendliness Dogs were friendly and stayed in the sidewalk or in the open field mostly

Love the open park layout. It's not generally big of a park but it is open all the same. There is a smaller sized dog park, but it's never too packed to try and let ours run around in there. All in all, it is a nice place to go on a cool evening with your family or dogs or both!

It is alright. They don't change the mulch but have a giant pile of it outside. No one follows the rules of the park and leaves trash. Other than that it's fine

Wasn't the best or biggest dog park, but it is open 24 hours and a good place to let your dog burn off some energy when you're on a road trip and getting to your hotel late. I couldn't find any poop bag dispenser, but I had my own. The dog park is at the rear of the park and down a path, so we had to search a minute for it.

They have a playground, and asphalt walking path that walks around the park, a nice big field in the middle of it, they also have a shelter with one stationary barbecue grill there. And they have a fenced in dog park, with a large Watering Bowl for the dogs. The dog park is also mulched so that's nice, you don't have to worry about your dog getting muddy. Plenty of trees for the dogs and also there's a few smaller boulders to play King of the Hill on. There's also a nice bench for you and other people to sit on while the dogs are enjoying themselves. Would recommend! In a great neighborhood! I would just ask for you to clean up after your dog, so diseases and "not so harmless" colds/virused aren't spread between dogs, and then into our rivers/creeks/streams!
