I go here almost daily. Very well-kept, and many activity options. There is a crew there on a daily basis to maintain facilities and keep the grounds tended. There are two dog parks, two restroom locations, two play areas, a lacrosse field, a pond, wonderful trails,and a fitness court.

Great place! Separate little dog ans big areas with a joint "water park" in the middle. Always well kept amd supplied with waste bags. Trash is taken out regularly.

There's poop everywhere. I watched 4 adults sit around and watch their dogs poop. Not one of them moved to pick it up. They are the norm, it seems. I know dog owners don't see every poop, but it's just negligence at this point. Gross. Two stars for the size, grass, covered seating and access to water.

I like this dog because it’s completely shaded. My dog is super fluffy and gets heated quickly, so this allows him to spend time at the park during the summer. The only thing I don’t like is the mulch, but I’m noticing a majority of dog parks in McKinney have this instead of actual grass.
