The highlights

Reviewers point to the size of the fenced footprint, the genuine separation between the two yards, and the riverside path as the reasons the park is worth the walk-in from the lot. Weekday off-hours give nervous dogs the most space.

The community

Quiet on weekday mornings, busier on weekend afternoons. The crowd is friendly and the maintenance level is closer to a town park than a volunteer site.

Before you go

Google Maps routes incorrectly here; search for 'Merrymeeting Dog Park PARKING LOT' or aim for the boat launch at the end of Water Street. Water fountains run only in warm weather; bring a backup bottle in spring or fall.
