What visitors say

★★★★★

Nice neighborhood dog park. Has 2-gate entryway, waste bags, trash cans, benches and chairs, water pump with bowl. We’ve met a lot of friendly dogs and people here!

★★★★★

Plenty of room for the dogs to play Rare to find it empty save for post rain days when crushed gravel becomesgrey sludge :0(

★★★★

Big fan of this park, pup loves it! It has that bocce court style sand and gravel, fresh water, double gates, extra disposable bags. All the features you could need. Community keeps it pretty clean. Nice neighborhood right by the schools, not many bad dog owners that I've run…

★★★★

As most reviewers have noted, it’s a nice little park with a clay kitty-litter base, friendly dogs, respectful owners, and street parking. The negatives are the outer gate that doesn’t latch properly and the lack of poop bags in any of the dispensers. That just gives some folks…
