Small, but decent sized for a city park with peastone and dirt ground cover. This park is set next to a school, so parking would be extremely limited on weekdays. Bags, trash, and a water fountain - a few benches and the trees provide some good shade one they have leaves.

Great little spot to bring your canine and let him loose. However, just behind there is a giant field that is better for bigger dogs.

I was very excited about this park, there seemed to be a great sense of community with lots of dogs even in the winter! The fenced in area was on the small side, but very nice; however, all of the dogs were in the open area down the hill. Love that there’s a nice space to run my large dog. I wish it would’ve worked out, but unfortunately my dog was attacked by an aggressive dog. Will not be returning to this park.

Go here all the time. The dog owners are excellent, a lot of the same people every day. Great mix of dog breeds and sizes. Nice facility and in a great location. Awesome water fountain as well, and plenty of trash for waste disposal.

Super cute park. Lots of shade! The ground is covered in small gravel so no mud! Water fountain dog bowl. The only downside is it’s a little smaller than we’re used to
