About this park

A southwest-side neighborhood park with a large fenced dog area split into two yards, a walking trail through a thin band of woods, and some scattered public art. The dog yards are the practical anchor of the park; the trail and playground round it out as a one-stop for leashed and off-leash time on the same visit.

What visitors say

Synthesized from 545 Google reviews
The highlights

Reviewers praise the size of the fenced run, the friendliness of the regular crowd, and the wooded walking trail that gives a quieter on-leash option once the dog has burned off energy. Cleanup compliance gets mixed reports, so eyes on the field are worth keeping.

The community

A southwest-side neighborhood crowd, mellow and familiar; shy dogs settle in here more easily than at the busier east-side yards.

Before you go

Winter and early spring leave both yards muddy, so plan around the forecast or expect to towel off. Water is reliable in one yard but historically thin in the other, so a bottle in the car is the safer call.
