I’m giving this four stars for its potential. When I got there there (11:30am on Sunday) there was not a dog in a sight, only three men without dogs eating (I think they were eating) while sitting on a stone wall within the large dog park. I asked them as I approached if they minded a dog in there. One answered, “no ma’am”. The other said, “no this is her park (referring to my dog), we’ll go”. And they all picked up their stuff and left while we waited outside the gate to enter. The park is actually quite nice. It’s mostly grass which means minimal mud and shaded with beautiful trees. I was disappointed that the water was shut off I’m assuming for the winter. I was there for an hour and never saw anyone else, or dog, except for another man who sat on the ground outside the gate to do what looked like paperwork. He quietly left when my dog approached the fence. There was a poop bag station but no bags. However, I was very happy that someone zip tied a container of tennis balls to the pole. Overall it was a pleasant-enough experience that I’ll return- definitely during daylight hours in hopes that there may be more dogs for mine to play with. Let’s populate this park with our dogs! I hope this review shows that although I 100% understand the concerns expressed in other reviews about homeless people, that isn’t always reason enough to not visit places in our community.

Quaint and quiet. Nice for a couple laps around. Dog parks for small and large breeds. Only, ummm --- interesting part of my experience was that there were a few people air drying their clothes on the fence. One man was in t-shirt and briefs amongst the trees. Not sure what the green balls were (assuming some kind of fruit or seed). Mutated tennis balls? Lol

Actually a 3.5 rating: Large enough park/greenspace to walk with pacement. Decent for walking your dog. Plain, near a neighborhood, semi-scenic due to the space. Large enough for the annual One MusicFest. It's clean, it's lowly populated to fulfill your introvert needs.

Good place to people watch. The dog park is clean and basic for doggy needs.
