Great dog park! Very clean, multiple areas for different size dogs, watering bowl, poop bags, great view for the humans 👌

Awesome place for the more independent pups/humans - those who enjoy the outdoors and being “off the beaten path,” so to speak. There are plenty of unofficial but clear trails throughout the tallgrass prairie. Up by the parking lot, there’s a restroom, water fountain, picnic table, and a mowed play area. There is no gate at the entrance. We only saw one other person and pup, and we all mostly stayed out of each other’s way.

Very nice fenced park in the downtown area; therefore, relatively small, yet still plenty of room for the dogs to run. Small and large dog sprayed areas with turf instead of grass. And a water fountain for the dogs.

There are several areas for dogs. You have the walking paths, the fenceless, leashless paths to walk, a fenced area for small dogs only, and a fenced area for all sized dogs. I was very impressed with the fun set up and the water you can get to give to dogs and clean paws. It was really nice and we plan to go back for sure!
