BEST DOG PARK IN BENTONVILLE! My dogs love this place. Its their favorite 😍
Read more about Osage Dog ParkThis appears to be a fairly new dog park. Very nice grassy area. Several things for the dogs to play on. One bench for the humans. There is a side for dogs over 30 lb large breed and a side for dogs under 30 lb small breed. They do provide poopy bags and a trash can. Bring your own water bowl or you have to walk a short distance to the closest doggy water fountain. Would be nice to have a doggie water fountain right outside the doggie gate. Since it is new, the trees are not large enough yet to provide shade. However, there are quite a few trees planted around the area, so in the future there should be large shade trees. Overall, this is a very nice dog park.
