Nature Park Dog Park

We came after a week of rainstorms so we were expecting lots of mud, but we didn't really see any. Most of the ground is covered in wonderful lush grass, but there were a lot of dry 'poop bombs' sitting around. We came when the winds were blowing Northeast to avoid any sewer plant smell. It wasn't really much of a problem except for one time when the wind died down there was a slight pungent smell in the air. After talking to some long-time locals they said that it's not usually a big issue since the wind blows north most of the time. My doggo had a blast, and we met a lot of kind semi-social people. We didn't use the small dog area, but it looked nice and lush too. *I can't give it a 5-star rating since the Bombs are plentiful and the pungent smell, though not overpowering, was slightly disturbing. I'll give it 4.3/5.0 stars.

I’ve been coming to the dog park at Nature park for about 7 months so I have experienced the fall, winter and spring. I love how big the dog park is and there are always a lot of dogs for the other dogs to play with. There are lots of trash cans for waste bags and they provide doggie bags as well which is helpful for when you forget your own. The new parking lot is great! It sometimes gets overrun by the skaters but it’s not usually bad. The new bathrooms is also a nice new addition. There are some things that would make the park better. There isn’t really any shade which days when it actually gets warm out and the sun is out. There also isn’t a water source that is on. Ever since I have been here the fountain that is here has been turned off. Having a water source would be nice but if you bring your own that works too. More benches would be a great addition and cleaning up the trash that is scattered around. There is some un-finished construction at the back of the dog park. I wish that could get fixed but the dogs seem to leave the materials alone. The ditch is a favorite digging spot. Overall it’s a great spot and the better of the two dog parks.

Nice dog park. Single double gate entrance for both small and large dogs. (The areas beyond the entrance are separated) There are some agility obstacles spread out through a very large grass area. There is a dog water fountain located in the double gate entrance. My only complaint is not about the park itself but the people that visit it. Seems like a lot of younger people can't be bothered to pick up after their dogs even though there are supplied poop bags. Been to many parks and there are always those people but this park is particularly bad for that. Luckily it is good sized which makes it easier to avoid the left landmines.

Nice huge park two separate areas with lots of training exercises for dogs. They were adding more while I was their

Tons of space, bugrass is well kept and there are some fun props for the dogs.
