"The area is pretty clean, even though dogs aren't always supervised. It's supposed to be a requirement to pick up after them, but some people just don't. On the other hand, there's a guy who does a great job keeping the park tidy by refilling dog bowls and emptying the trash cans. It's a really nice park – I'm not sure if there's an admission fee, but it's definitely worth a visit!"

I have mixed feelings. There are 3 areas. One is a 'training' area for like dog running courses. It's pretty large with the training space taking only a small area. Apparently you only have 20 min in there. There is no 'big dog' 'small dog' area, except for a small dog area where your dog can only be 12 inches. My dogs are frenchies..bigger than 12 inches but I didn't want them to be in with big dogs. I had to go to the large walking trail area where there were a ton of dogs. There was a big black lab who kept pawing at and jumping on one of my dogs and literally followed us everywhere doing this. Not an owner in site or they didn't care. So I left.

I love this place. Friendly people and dogs. Wide open, clear area so your pups can wander off and play but you can still see them. They even provide water for your pups. Great place. I wish it was more popular.

Hands down one of our favorite off-leash parks. Tons of room to run, always well maintained, and the people behind it are genuinely great. Highly recommend.

Place is well maintained and the people there are very nice. I've never had a problem bringing my dogs there. Also, the city just replaced some of the trails with cement, so it's not as messy to walk on after it snows or rains.
