Grover Basin Dog Park
Grassy basin with Papago Mountain views and a regular crowd
About this park
Grover Basin carves a grassy dog park into a desert retention basin on the north Phoenix edge of Scottsdale, with separate large-dog and small-dog sides and Papago Mountain views all around. Irrigated turf keeps it greener than most valley parks, and pebble-lined water spots sit on both sides for paw rinses and drinks. Regulars praise the friendly vibe and the space to run, though the basin can get muddy after the sprinklers run.

Before you go
Bring your own poop bags; the park has a scooper but does not stock bags. Street parking only, and the surrounding roads get busy, so approach the lot slowly.
