Cypress Park
Off-leash dog hours on a wide, unfenced neighborhood field
About this park
A quiet neighborhood park in southeast Boise with off-leash dog hours on an unfenced open field. Tennis courts, two playgrounds, and a covered picnic area round out a space that locals use for wide, open running room rather than typical dog-park amenities.
Amenities
Cypress Park reviews
What visitors consistently sayReviewers describe it as a hidden neighborhood gem with clean restrooms and a generous open field for off-leash running. The double-playground layout and tennis court make it a genuine multi-use park, not a dog-park clone.
A low-key neighborhood crowd: families with kids during the day, dog owners tied to the early and evening off-leash windows.
