We had fun enjoying the sunny day with a walk around this park. We love near it, but didn’t even know about its existence. It’s calm here and the trail offers a nice workout with the ups and downs
Read more about Patrick Eagan ParkBeautiful, clean, 5-12yr old playground. Baseball, basketball, walking path. Outhouse available. Picnic shelter.
Read more about Captain Dodd ParkGood enough for a small neighborhood park. Could really use some seating though! A bench or two would be great.
Read more about Peridot Path ParkThis is an awesome park for the pups! There is a giant hill and lots of room for plenty of exercise! The water is limited so bring a bottle full especially on hot days. There is a flat surface up top, a shaded pavilion, a bathroom, and trails! The parking lot is only ever full if there’s a soccer game across the street. I’ve been the only one in the park, but also surrounded by up to 20 other dogs. There are two areas: small dogs only and any size!
