What dog owners are saying
Recent review snippets help visitors gauge vibe, upkeep, and who each park suits best.
Love to go to that park to take my dog and have a long walk. Is beautiful and super clean and well kept. I don't play baseball but they have good facilities and kayak ramp, pickleball , huge dog park and children's playground.
Read more about Bay Area ParkI love this park and nature trail. I love that the playground is covered and kept in pretty good condition. My kids love playing on the zipline. I love seeing the deer, birds, bunnies, armadillo, and butterflies when I go walking. It's a magical place for sure.
Read more about Armand Bayou Hike & Bike Trails - Fairmont Parkway Trail HeadPlease keep dogs leashed, as required by law. Motorized bikes and scooters are not permitted on the trail, as clearly posted. I was nearly struck twice in one day by people on scooters, and these trails are used by families with small children. Motorized vehicles also cause damage to the trail surface. I ask that this issue be addressed to ensure safety and prevent further damage.
Read more about Holly Bay ParkWe like this park but sometimes its very disgusting. And makes me shake my head at our community. It's a children's park but there were empty alcohol containers and we've seen used condoms there too. People have no shame or basic respect anymore which is sad. The ducks and the splash pad are really nice and I do like the redone play area they've done.
