Buffalo park is amazing for the amount of space I need to effectively give my dogs the best exercise for them.
I always carry leashes on me as well as other supplies so leashing them up when a dog arrives is simple. The kids at the playground don’t bother them because of course, both the kids and my dogs are having a grand time doing their own thing.
I have never had a problem with anyone who saw my dogs off leash. However, my dogs have extensive training and like I mentioned, I do leash them when I see fellow dog and their owner.
On the plus side, there are no burs of any kind! (At least to my knowledge).
Only downside, when the “ditch” area by rolling hills fills with water and there are geese… my Belgian Sheepdog (black) LOVES to wreak havoc. Amazing recall but only a downside because then I have to load her into the car all wet and muddy. Ha.

Pickleball and Old School tennis you can't go wrong there
My toddler loves the splash pad and we always have a great time cooling off here.
Although the splash park is currently closed due to Covid, Buffalo park continues to be amazing! There is some pretty unique wildlife too. Great for bird watching.
Great place for kids, some of the monkey bars, climbing is very challenging, the kids keep trying until they get it. So many different equipments compared to other parks. The park has sand, lots of trees, bathrooms are seasonal. 🍃🌿
Love the Buffalo Park splash pad. It is great fun for children and adults (this Yaya) to spend time having a little fun in the sun while cooling off. My toddler Granddaughter absolutely loved it. I strongly encourage WEARING NONSKID SHOES or flipflops as the cement is slippery when wet.
Great splash pad, small but very nice, and with tables in the shade. At 9 pm the colored lights come on in the fountains, very pretty! Awesome playground close by as well.
Nice playgrounds with lots of trees, one for smaller kids. There's a pavilion with tables, tennis court and a basketball hoop. Nice big open area for running, soccer, or frisbee. There's a small splashpad on the other side with covered picknick tables and restrooms. There's a small wetland area that my bird watching daughter really likes. Plenty to do with a bit of variety!
