It’s clean and since it’s new the equipment here is still in good condition. There is a big dog side and small dog side. Always looks empty when I pass by so I don’t know if that’s good or bad. The park is clean and there’s no dog poop and it doesn’t have that bad urine scent yet. The area is on a busy street but there’s not much police patrol, some days the Essex county sheriff surveillance is parked inside the park.

Very quiet. I take my dog there almost every weekend when I am not at work. She loves running and playing with other dogs, which is rare because I have noticed not a lot of people go there with their dogs so that’s probably why it’s quiet lol. The obstacles are great for training her while I’m there.

Very nice dog park. One side for large dogs, other side for small dogs. I have seen everyone be respectful to each other and others dogs. Water fountains are available for the dogs. Enjoy the pics I have posted. They are of the large dog park.
