Three separate fenced areas that have double gates going in and out. One specifically for small dogs. Nice shaded areas, benches, and water fountains for people and dogs. They also have trash cans and poop bag dispensers. Only downside is that the connecting fences are open and are not blacked out.

Amazing dog park. Everyone is very good at communicating and respecting each other’s space including understanding their own dogs. have never had any issues. I have respect for those who will quickly and tell me upfront their dog isn’t friendly because as dog parents we never want a bad situation to happen when we can have control of it. There is plenty of space for all dogs, theres 3 different areas that are fully fenced and theres a large area to just walk your dog.

We travel to a bunch of dog parks. We were very happy this is a free and fob-less park, like ~92% of the other parks out there. Great pitstop for travelers with well-socialized dogs. Not many dogs on a Monday around noon, but as expected generally. It's on the medium size of medium in our experience. Amenities: A couple of community balls Doggie bags Watering holes Benches on concrete pads Good shade in the larger run. Portapotties Not sure if lights in the evening. Great park!

Maxwell Dog Park is a delightful haven for dogs and their owners. The park offers separate fenced areas for small and large dogs, ensuring a comfortable and safe environment for all. Amenities such as water fountains (available seasonally), benches, and shade structures enhance the experience, making it a pleasant outing for both pets and their humans. The park is well-maintained, with ample parking and a friendly community atmosphere. It’s a must-visit spot for anyone in the area looking to give their dog some off-leash fun.
