Great park, with a basketball court, pickle ball court, volley ball court (w/ sand) ample parking, a space for grilling a dog park, and I believe multiple trails. The gps will lead you to the road NOT the park, just turn left or right onto the road and drive down a 1/4mi to get to the main area

Standard semi-urban dog park. Decent size, some gravel/sand and grass. There's dog bowls around, but bring water. Pretty clean, good gate system, and parked on the street no problem. Separate small and large dog sides. The other people and pups were all very cool, so it was a great experience for us!
