Natasha Witta year ago
This is a wonderful dog park- there are lots of obstacles for the dogs and benches throughout for the owners. It’s mostly fake grass which means less of a muddy mess, a win in my book! My one complaint is that the water is in the entrance area, not inside the actual park. Other than that, my pups loved it!

This is a great quiet park for kids. They have covered picnic tables and shelters, charcoal grills, a nice walking path, 2 playgrounds, a basketball court, and 2 dog parks. One of the best parks in the area.

Beautiful park with playground and bark park. Nice restrooms. We rented the hall and it is stunning inside. Kitchen, bathrooms, indoor seating, outdoor space with seating. Scenic views.

Great convenient location at Veterans Park at 20 New London Rd. Nice separate fenced areas for large and small dogs. Several benches in each. Would be nice to have some play/exercise equipment for dogs to use. Several we visit while out of town have had equipment built by local vocational schools or local businesses.
