Great place for the families with kids to spend time. Lots of playing and activity area for small kids. The trail area also gives a soothing breeze of air that you would love having a walk and run around. Very happening, love this park.

Great place for dogs, plenty of room for dogs to run. Probably should be pressure washed every once in a while. The smell of dog urine is strong at the gates. Plenty of poop bag stations and several water faucets, however, only 1 of them works. Still a great place for dogs and owners to play and relax.

Love this park Super clean. I just dont like when people bring hig dogs to small dog park, they are separated for a reason. Most people are clean and pick up after their pets.

This place is lovely. There is a big dog side and a little dog side, above the well shaded dog park are several restaurants and a craft brew house. There is a bucket that can lower down your beer order, so that you can stay with your furry friends. Most people who being their dogs are down there with them, taking advantage of the ample space and seating areas. My dogs and my kiddo love this place.
