Brookhaven Park
Wooded acres with a creek for swimming and shade all around
About this park
A large, partially wooded off-leash park with a creek running through it, perimeter trails, and a covered pavilion with restrooms. Reviewers call it one of the best dog parks in Atlanta thanks to its size, shaded nooks, and the endless supply of tennis balls other visitors leave behind.
