This place has no greenery, a short fence, and was hard to find because I need we d to go through a place that said 'private property or something like that. Didn't know so I walked more than a but out of my way to find the place. Anyhow, it was a place to let my dog of leash and there weren't any other dogs so he didn't have to hold back. I considered that a bonus. Better than no off-leash at all!

Has a bench and a drinking fountain for dogs. It's pretty basic.

This is just a fenced in area. The ground is all concrete and there is often rocks and debris and my dog cut her paw once. We used to come here to play, now we only sometimes come for a little off leash time but try to be careful on the concrete. There is a bench, trash can, water fountain (often has dirt/pine needles in it) and doggie bag dispenser.

Hi my name is Frida a cute English bulldog puppy. I’m leaving this review so others can come out and play with me after 7 pm

Very small park, but nice for letting my puppy stretch her legs. The ground is pavement though and it's hard on my puppy's feet. I wish a more pet friendly ground surface would be installed.
