About this park

A fenced dog park on the east side of Buncombe County with separate areas for large and small dogs, opened after the area lost its previous spot to flooding. Owners report plenty of open space, water bowls on site, and a surprisingly clean grounds, with easy access and ample parking at the edge of the Walmart lot. Walking paths are limited, so this is more a place to run than to stroll.

The highlights

Separate large and small dog areas, water on site, and a clean, spacious run make this a welcome return of a dog park to east Buncombe.

The community

A friendly local spot where owners say they have met plenty of other regulars, though it can get rowdy enough that small children are better left at home.

Before you go

Bring your own water since the on-site containers are sometimes empty, and use the large and small dog sides to match your dog's size.
