This is the first GREAT "big dog" park we've been to since leaving the North! First of all, there is plenty of easy parking. Secondly, the big dog side is HUGE, with mixed terrain, like hills and flat, a little woods and open land, dirt and grass. Most dogs could find a place to be happy. The best part, though, was the king of dogs and owners that were at the park. With the exception of one cranky guy, everyone was very okay letting their dog get down and dirty and play like a dog. If you've ever been to a dog park you know what I mean. This park is open sun up to sun down.
