This dog park is in the forest. The off leash area is 15 acres. You park by the fire district headquarters and walk about 5 minutes to the dog park. There are many trails in the forest but it's easy to find the off leash area. This park is perfect for dogs when it's hot outside because most of it is covered in trees. There is a play area with picnic tables and water. Poopie bag station and trash bins are located along the fence. The official name of the off leash park is Rotary bark park.

We loved this park! It’s spacious, clean, and very dog-friendly. A perfect place for dogs to run and socialize.

We are so lucky to be able to enjoy the park’s trails along with our 2 year old Labrador, Porter. It’s a fantastic dog park and we just hope everyone who visits picks up after their dog and follows the rules. Best place ever.

The parking area isn't where maps says. It's actually at the firehouse down the street. There's a bit of a walk to get to the office leash area. It's a well maintained flat trail up to the fenced off leash area but once inside it's a different story. I wouldn't recommend bringing your dog here if you have trouble walking on uneven ground, up or down hills or need to sit and take breaks. The only place I saw water or a place to sit was in a back corner opposite of the entrance. There was a small covered area with a picnic table that has some jugs of water and 1 bowl tucked in the corner of a small "field" (small flat dirt area). Be sure to brings your own waste bags and water bowl. Overall Wasn't impressed with this dog park. However there is another one just down the road on the other side but it was getting dark and we didn't stop to check it out this time.

Lovely park with a fenced off leash area plus trails for those who want to walk their dogs leashed. Parking was easy to find.
