Much improved! I came here originally when it was a pile a mud a few years ago with my puppy and wasn’t pleased. Well 3 years later and living in a new neighborhood, I decided to give it another shot. I was so impressed! Very clean, spacious nice and responsive owners, clean water and a well maintained grassy area. We will definitely be back! After years at the colonial place dog park, this one is much cleaner and better maintained. Kudos to whoever is responsible!

My go-to dog park in Norfolk. It's quiet, spacious, you rarely if ever will see dog poop in the main area. Every owner and dog I've come across (some familiar faces too) are kind, and I'm never afraid something will happen to my dog or myself. Def check it out, there always will be a dog or two!

Our pup Max had a blast his first time here! The other dog parents were awesome too--so friendly and watchful over their own if they started to get rowdy. The view right by the water is beautiful as well 😍 We'll definitely be back!

Plenty of seating. Nice shaded area. Doggie pick up bags are provided, they have one ramp that looks old you can train your dogs on. Little basket of toys at entrance for doggie play time. Doggie water bowel provided as well. Only reason i give 3 stars is because the fence is surrounding area is really low. If you have a jumper they could easily clear it. Also no area for smaller dogs. So be weary if you have little ones.

Yesterday's cloudiness made the perfect day to play! The grounds are well- kept and neat. Although no children were there playing, it's a nice play place with a picnic area and a dog park. Nestled among large trees, it's really peaceful. There's a large sliding board gym area with 3 slides, and the ground surrounding the slide has wood chips to soften a fall. It also has a riding toucan hobby horse. It's rarely ever crowded, so that's a plus! Check it out next time the kids wanna play outside!
