One of 2 dog parks I am willing to take my dog to. Walkable with plenty of trails. Scenic beautiful trails. In spring or rain make sure to have proper footwear because it can get a little muddy on the trails (it is a dog park). I go to the dog park for my dog to be able to socialize with other dogs. This park and Minnehaha creek are the 2 spots where you are almost guaranteed to have other dogs there. There is a water area at both of these parks. Minnehaha is better for that in my opinion since it isn't stagnant water (but for others that could be a negative). There are areas for people to sit right near the start of the park for those who can not walk as far.

It's a big park with many trails to walk through. Fenced off area with a pond for dogs to swim. There are other areas of standing water that are not fenced off. People are typically nice there. You have to have a Three Rivers membership. I believe it's around $60/yr.

Ok, I have L❤️VED this park for years, but they have really let the ragweed go this year. If you are sensitive to ragweed at all, STAY AWAY!! Not over exaggerating at all here when I say there are large areas where it is at least 10 feet tall.
