No. It is an open neighborhood field with a road running past it, so this is a leashed walk rather than an off-leash stop.

Are waste bags provided?

Yes. A dog waste bin with free bags sits by the walking area, next to a trash can and a recycling bin.

Rarely. Reviewers describe having the park to themselves, which is what makes it workable for a dog that would rather not meet anyone.

Yes. A lot sits close by at the base of the hill.

About this park

A small neighborhood park on a hill near McCormick Field, with an open field, one picnic table, and a bench under the trees. A dog waste station with free bags sits by the walking area, along with a trash can and a recycling bin. Foot traffic is light enough that the field is often empty.

The hill does the work: an open field with a choice of full sun or tree shade, and a waste station that reviewers note is actually stocked.

Before you go

There is no fence and the field sits above a road that carries steady traffic, so keep leashes short at the edges. Park in the lot below and walk up.
