The Best Family Alexandera month ago
Really nice dog park. Lots of nice people. It was really nice that it was accessible when the other dog park was closed because of rain. Its a little nerve racking for a new dog owner to not have fencing. But the other dogs kept her interested and she didn't run off. One less star because there was no water source for the dogs. a simple water fountain or spigot would have been nice. One more less star because there were no benches or wall or anything to sit on. My old bones need rest. I would have to leave the field to sit on the picnic table. And the nearness of the very busy tennis courts made my young dog a little jumpy and distracted.

The park was really nice, lots of big trees and a large grassy area. The playground was large and a lot of fun, lots of things for kids of all ages to enjoy

Honestly I found the CEMENT slide a little scary. Not so much from the road rash you will receive going down but more from the infection in said road rash that you will develop after landing in the garbage at the bottom. Nice park

A Beautiful Park right behind Target, well maintained, nice landscaping, with an doG exercise area, -clean- public restrooms, and bicycle racks. Lots of trees in this quiet, Family-neighborhood locale! (Could use a doggy-hydration station/water fountain!)
