Yes. Two ramps lead into the water channel so dogs can swim out for fetch instead of jumping off the ledge. Watch for discarded fishing line near the water.

Is there a small or shy dog area?

A separate fenced section at the southeast corner suits small, timid, or flight-risk dogs, and the double-gated entries add a safety buffer.

What's it like in winter?

The turf gets badly muddy through the wet months, and many regulars decamp to Ann Morrison's winter off-leash field until spring.

Anything to watch for around the park?

An active disc golf course rings the dog area, so mind flying discs on the perimeter. Geese leave heavy droppings along the water edge, and a few visitors have flagged people loitering around the parking lot.

About this park

Boise's flagship off-leash dog park: a fenced grass island ringed by a moat-like water channel, with a separate small-and-shy-dog area at the southeast corner. Double-gated entries, waste bags, portable toilets at the gates, and a large parking lot make it a serious, purpose-built off-leash destination.

Together Treasure Valley Dog Island reviews

What visitors consistently say

The highlights

Reviewers repeatedly describe it as one of the best dog parks they've ever visited. The moated-island design is visually striking, and the double-gated entries plus shy-dog pen make it unusually safe for flight-risk or timid dogs. The sheer size gives high-energy dogs room to actually run.

The community

Boise's most social off-leash scene: a daily core of regulars, disc golfers on the surrounding course, and visitors from across the valley. A few recent reviewers have flagged maintenance and occasional dog-on-dog incidents, so busy-hour awareness matters.

Before you go

The turf gets badly muddy through winter. Many regulars switch to Ann Morrison Park's winter off-leash field during the wet months and come back in spring. The pond draws heavy goose traffic, so expect droppings along the water edge.
