I.C. King Park
Lakeside trails and a PetSafe fenced dog park with wooded views
About this park
I.C. King Park combines a PetSafe-branded fenced dog park with an extensive trail system for hiking and biking along a lake. The dog park itself is clean and well-maintained, with natural views of the surrounding woods and water. The trails extend through forested terrain with lake access and occasional wildlife sightings. Tick exposure is a real consideration in warmer months, particularly May through September.
Amenities
What visitors say
Synthesized from 321 Google reviewsReviewers consistently note the park's natural beauty, calling out clear lake water, wooded vistas, and a peaceful atmosphere well removed from road noise. The dog park is clean and offers views of the surrounding landscape that most urban facilities lack.
Foot traffic is light enough that solitude is easy to find on the trails. The few people encountered tend to be friendly. The dog park draws a quiet, nature-oriented crowd rather than the social regulars of a heavily-trafficked facility.
Best for
Before you go
Check for ticks thoroughly after any visit from April through September. One reviewer pulled 15 to 20 ticks off a single dog after a May visit. The trails are not clearly marked, so stick to the main loop if you are unfamiliar with the layout.
