Is this open to the public?

No. The Dog Park at Immanuel is members-only, and more than one reviewer describes driving over and being turned away.

Is there a day pass for visitors?

No. Reviewers who stopped mid-road-trip found no walk-in option, and membership needs vaccine records plus an approval step that takes time.

What does membership cost?

Reviews quote very different figures across the years, an annual rate five years ago and a monthly one more recently, so the current price is worth confirming before signing up.

A mix of artificial and real turf, which a member credits with keeping both the yard and the dogs cleaner than a mulch or grass lot.

About this park

The Dog Park at Immanuel is a small, members-only yard on a United Church of Christ property in Fountain Square, billed as downtown Indy's first dog park. The footprint mixes artificial and real turf, which keeps things cleaner after weather, but it is strictly for members and does not accept walk-ins.

Before you go

This is members-only, with vaccine verification required before approval; do not show up expecting a day-pass option, even on a road trip. Confirm the current rate and signup process before driving over, since reviewers quote very different prices across the years.
