Read more about Peninsula ParkWonderful dog park - it’s so clean and the grass is well kept! This dog park is conveniently located right beside a great playground and you can literally keep an eye on your dogs and kids at the same time. I am so happy to have found this place ! Small and large dog areas and nice benches to sit and watch your fur babies. It is small but such a pleasant place for families. Pickleball courts are in the park area and a swimming pool. I’m so glad I found this spot. If your traveling on Interstate 30 it is definitely worth the effort to make this a stop for your dogs! Kids can stretch their legs in the huge modern playground !
