Nice little dog park. Poop bag dispenser is handy. The down side is the park is not completely fenced in so use care. Fence opening faces a busy street.

Love this park for our dog. The poop bags provided are of high quality and large. The only down side to this park is that it is only fenced on the street side.

Lovely little park for throwing frisbee with kids in summer and sledding in winter. Many a story can be invented under the very large spreading tree.

Lovely park. It is sort of a dog park, but only about 80% fenced.

This park is not fenced in. On the site, it claims that it is partially, but every side was open ! Very disappointed.
