This is a gem!!! I loved this park!! It’s smart, they have 2 parks, one for smaller dogs and one for bigger dogs. They are equipped with tunnels and see saws for training or playing. They also have benches for the dog parents. We had a lot of fun there. Unfortunately, our dogs aren’t very social so as soon as they saw another dog, they went 🤪crazy.

This dog park is really nice and has plenty of room to run around. They offer separate areas for large and small dogs, plus multiple seating spots for owners to relax. There’s also a fountain station so your dog can stay hydrated. On the other side of the park, there’s also a kids’ area — it even looks like it has a splash pad, though I haven’t checked it out myself. They also have public restrooms, which is super convenient. Overall, a great spot for both dogs and families.

Great park, we frequent it with our big dog but as of today (08/16/2025) the areas are closed due to repairs. Just a heads up in case you want to stop by I was told they estimated to be opening back in the first half of September
