About this park
Prairie Dog Meadow Natural Area is a quiet open-space parcel near the south city limits, managed by the city as undeveloped natural land. Dogs visit on leash. Despite the name, the prairie dog colony that once occupied the site was removed years ago; the area now functions as a low-traffic walking spot with grassy terrain and room to roam.

Before you go
Leash required. The site sees low foot traffic most days, making it a good option when a crowded park isn't ideal. No water on-site, so bring your own.
