Cute little dog park that you can walk to if youre around that area which is really convenient especially to get some doggy energy out. There's a big dog side and small dog like a lot of them and there's such obstacles and stuff.

Well maintained. Completely fenced. Two large areas for the dogs (big sog park and small dog park). Small parking lot but I've never seen it overfull. My pups love it. Please pick up after your pup to keep it clean for all :)

From the perspective Of a traveler passing through. The dog park is completely fenced in. There Is a fenced in area for small dogs and an equal sized fenced in area for large dogs. Plenty of parking. Grassy areas as well as mulched areas. And lots of trees for shade on the large dog park area. We came here On a Thursday, January 25 at around 3:50 PM. There are no other dogs here at this time and because it has been unseasonably warm. There is lots of mud and puddles of water. Please make sure you bring towels to clean your dog off afterwards. There are also trash bags and garbage receptacles for disposal of your dogs Bowel movements. Please pick up your dogs poop it’s gross when you don’t and it’s Very uncool. Side note, there are also water fountains for refilling dog bowls.

Great park. Space for large and small dogs, no membership required, shaded seating, agility obstacles (some a little broken), free poop bags, trash can inside park, easy parking, water fountain (for people, no bowl), lots of space. Weedy/grassy with some bare spots. Very quiet on the Sunday that we went. Puddles after rain.

This dog park is fantastic! It has both small and large dog sections, well-designed agility equipment, and plenty of space for the dogs to run and play. The water station on-site is such a thoughtful touch, and everything is very well-maintained. Whether you’re just passing through or a regular visitor, it’s a great spot to let your dog burn off energy in a safe and clean environment. Really appreciate how much care goes into keeping it nice!
