Peacefull and clean place just for you and for your dog(s). You can run or walk like I did.

Great place for dogs! I like that there is a separate area for small breeds, and there's access to water, for drinking and swimming! There's a good amount of trash bins around, and that helps keep the place clean. We love to bring the pups when the weather permits. 😄 (Btw follow @ChikoAndTheBeans on Instagram for more puppy pics🥰)

This is a good recreation area with two small lakes and a children's play area. It is reasonably clean and good for spending an hour with kids. Restrooms The only problem I find with all Columbia parks is that the restrooms are closed between October and April.

My dog Bruce loves this park. It’s his favorite place to go to interact with other dogs while also being able to take a dip in the lake. It’s usually well-maintained And the trash cans are usually Ample in supply For stinky deposit. Would highly recommend that you bring your best friends here and you’re fur friends here To enjoy some time outdoors. Also the MKT Trail it is right through here.

Went for a dreamlike first date here. We spread out a picnic blanket and basket under a shady tree in the grass by the larger lake and had lunch. There is an unpaved walking path all the way around both lakes with some stretches of grass-only path. Plenty of benches every few hundred feet. We saw a heron, cardinals, and turtles both in the water and on the path. You can't even hear city noise from this area. Quiet and hardly a soul around, even on a Saturday!

What a great rec area! Lots of dog areas for all sizes to run in the enclosed areas. There's a nice playground for the kids with a Pavillion and BBQ grills. I went to do some fishing with the kids and they had a blast. My daughter got a fish on her first cast. Lots of fun since they stock all these local lakes. I showed up around 4 and they were biting!

Beautiful walking trails and well maintained landscape. We like the option to walk by the lake and connect to MKT or the option to go on the paved trail when the trails are wet. The playground has become a favorite little spot to end after we have finished our walking adventure.

Plenty of room to walk, beautiful trails, three sectioned off dog parks, places to fish, barbecue, playgrounds, bathrooms... what more could you want?
