Very large park with lots of grass. There isn't much shade yet since it was just renovates and the trees are still young. But lots of room for the pups to run and spread out. Can get a little flooded after rain but they are working on it. Water available for you and the pups.

This evening, my wife Kayla Cohen, a dedicated special education teacher in Norwalk, CT, and I embarked on a truly memorable journey with our beloved ESA companions, Ella and Thor, both adorable golden retrievers. As we ventured out into the crisp evening air, our hearts brimming with anticipation, we knew we were in for an enchanting experience. Accompanied by Ella, our loyal and affectionate ESA companion of two years and two months, and Thor, the energetic and playful one-year-old, our outing was infused with boundless joy and companionship. From the moment we set foot outside, the palpable sense of togetherness enveloped us, casting a warm glow upon our evening escapade. As we strolled through the tranquil streets of our neighborhood, the rhythmic patter of paws against pavement served as a symphony of harmony, echoing our shared sense of contentment. Kayla's infectious laughter intermingled with the playful antics of Ella and Thor, painting a portrait of sheer bliss and camaraderie. With each passing moment, our bond deepened, strengthened by the simple pleasures of companionship and mutual affection. Whether engaged in spirited games of fetch or basking in the serenity of quiet moments, our evening unfolded like a cherished chapter in the story of our lives. As we returned home, hearts full and spirits uplifted, we knew that this evening would forever hold a special place in our hearts. For in the company of loved ones, both human and canine alike, life's greatest treasures reveal themselves in the most ordinary of moments. And tonight, amidst the laughter and the love, we found our own little slice of paradise.

My dog loves it here. They have a big fenced in area for the dogs, as well as a separate area for small dogs. The walking trails are great and if your dog likes to swim definitely go here.

It is a beautiful park that we are happy to have but I only gave it 3 stars because it is not well taken care of. Besides the obvious drainage issues, the garbage is not taken away often enough and the smell is horrible. Also, the chairs are broken and just piled up. When they mow, the balls that are left behind are mowed over so there are ball parts everywhere and the dogs can choke on them. Plus the doggie doo bags are often empty.

The big dog park is very nice. They re-did it a number of yrs ago. But it would have been nice if they made the walk path all around the park; Maybe even 2 paths down the middle going left to right with benches; Also maybe benches around as well. Trees would look nice for shade for the dogs. A bathroom would b very beneficial for us dog owners. At first I was bringing my own chair n I see the rest of the dog owners got hip and started bringing and leaving chairs for the people, which was awesome. I still bring my own. People there r great. I love going there with my dog. I love the big and small dogs r all together and get along well. The small park across the gate is practically useless unless u have a dog that doesn't get along with others. So I hope someone can make a change in that park in the coming future for us dog owners. A nice big picnic table would b awesome, too.
