We love this doggie park! We have a 9 month old doodle boy. All the dogs that come with their Mom's and Dad's are friendly. Everyone is pleased and happy to come here for play and excerise.

I took my young dog to the small dog section. It would be a really nice park except there was big dog poop all over. It appears that no one picks up after their dog, even tho bags and trash cans are available. I won't be back.

Well this could be great but, this is for residents only. Second, the gate system needs repair. Plenty of shade, bench. 6 foot fence, good parking.
