What a treasure for our community! My dog loves to go and play at this park. Such a thoughtful donation by the Stern Family. The park has walking paths, leash-free, fenced-in dog park, pavilion for picnicking, ‘little free library’, and caboose from the old train depot relocated and displayed prominently in front. It is the perfect place to unwind and relax with your dog.

Excellent dog park. Plenty of room for your pooches to run and play catch. Trash bag and trashcan for poop inside the park. Three gated entrances, two double gates areas to let dog in and then take off leash before they run around. Dog water fountain is nice. The walking path is about 1/10th a mile and has a book exchange. Good view of train tracks.

Little dog park with fountain. In pretty old area of town. Not crowded. Walking trail. Gazebo. Friendly people

We had a good time checking our the old train and taking pics. Looks really cool on the inside and outside.

Nice park for doggies to play. The grass needs to grow more. It's getting sandy and not all dog owners pick up their dog's poop. There's no excuse bags and bins are provided. Remember dog parks are like child daycare in some way I've learned. Not all dog's get vaccinations and they visit the park too. Leaving those susceptible to catching a cough or cold too that do get vaccinations. I limit my visits because of that.
