About this park

Cambridge Park is a large, nearly-enclosed neighborhood park that has served as an informal off-leash spot for over 20 years. The upper level has a baseball diamond and a full paved perimeter trail; the lower field, a former soccer area, connects via a hill with good running room. A covered pavilion, a drinking fountain shared by dogs and owners, and mostly-fenced perimeter keep the space functional, though open corners mean attentive handling is expected.

The highlights

Regulars praise the size, well-kept grounds, and friendly atmosphere. The two-level layout gives dogs a solid run, and the evening social scene before sunset draws a consistent crowd of experienced owners.

The community

The before-sunset window fills with a familiar group of regulars who know each other's dogs. Owners here tend to be attentive and expect the same from newcomers.

Before you go

This is not an officially designated off-leash park. The corners are open, so keep flight-risk dogs on-leash. Dogs here are typically off-leash but owners tend to be more hands-on than at a fully fenced park.
