What dog owners are saying
Recent review snippets help visitors gauge vibe, upkeep, and who each park suits best.
I love taking my dog to this park. It has a humongous field for her to run free. It lacks an agility course, minus one tunnel, but I find those useless. My dog goes to run and play with other dogs. It is the perfect place for that. Each side, small dog and all dogs, has a small pavilion with a picnic bench. Then picnic benches in the field. The only negative is it is near a rail road track, so it can get loud occasionally.
