Thorpe Bark Park

Fun, large dog park with play equipment, shade structures and reserved parking for dog park visitors. We went in the snow and it was a lot of fun. Lots of fun playful pups and nice people to talk to.

We came to this park both going out and coming back on our long trip. Lots of open pine forest and dirt It has a huge large dog area and two smaller ones. The main small area has a little bit of dog course activities, and the other one is just very tiny with native grasses. Both times the large area was heavily used with more than 10 dogs who seemed happy to be running around together. But I have a little Chihuahua mix and the small parks work perfect for him. 2 porta-potties outside the gates.

Nice large trees!! Tables with covers are appropriated. People seem nice enough. It’s our second time visiting while in town. Water buckets provided and water spigot. Lots of dirt so be prepared to take a dirty dog home. 😂

Great place for the pups! Plenty of other dogs to play with. There's several buckets of water for the dogs to quench their thirst with. There is a separate part for the smaller dogs. Everyone I have met there have been friendly to human and dogs alike.

I've been taking my doggo here for over a year. They have two sections for dogs and during the non-winter months have a water station and buckets for the dogs. They have an obstacle training course as well. There are scattered benches and tables along the perimeter with a larger covered area more centered. There are plenty of dog waste assistant tools (rakes, long handled dust pans, and large bins). Most of the people that go there regularly are pretty chill and have a good eye for their dogs' tells. There is a large parking lot but when there are baseball/soccer games the parking fills up pretty soon. The biggest issue is they don't have ANY lights within the area. So once the sun goes down the large area is essentially pitch black. This is obviously a safety concern, especially in the winter when it gets dark earlier and ice starts to cover the ground. A few lights near the fencing would greatly help with this issue.
