Showing the actual texture of owner feedback makes the park page much more useful than a bare directory card.
You need to be a resident of Forest Park. Sure wish that was clearly noted on maps. I have now been to a third dog park where i have to find out when I get there. -1 for not clearly stating residents only -1 because It is frustrating to find out. +3 it is super clean. It is long so big dogs can really get going before having to turn. And there was decent parking. And thank you
Was not able to use because this dog park is now members only and you need a key to unlock the gate to enter. Mulched park with grassy area and trees located next to the highway. Metered street parking.
Only four stars because it’s gets preeeeetty muddy, even in the winter. We tend to avoid it when it’s pretty crowded, but it’s a great early morning spot (or late night) to help the doggo get out some energy (and it’s not super dark at night bc there are plenty of streetlights around it).
Very cute and secure , to have your fur babies run around
I'm grateful to have a dog park close by, and the dogs and people who use it are friendly and considerate. But it is SO small!
