Small place for dogs to play but it is a good place to let them run. A lot of people used to take their dogs over there but is not crowded. Good place for dogs to have fun and make new friends
Such a great park, lots of dogs, it is clean in general and has a water supply, which is nice to see when they work. There are some chairs probably brought in by the community so that's a nice touch.
As most reviewers have noted, it’s a nice little park with a clay kitty-litter base, friendly dogs, respectful owners, and street parking. The negatives are the outer gate that doesn’t latch properly and the lack of poop bags in any of the dispensers. That just gives some folks a ready excuse not to pick up after their dog, especially if they frequent parks that always provide them.
Plenty of room for the dogs to play
Rare to find it empty save for post rain days when crushed gravel becomesgrey sludge

Good park - big and well maintained. Water source at the park and even a little pool for dogs who like the water.
Seating for dog-parents. Most everyone I’ve come into contact with here is nice and the dogs are generally well-behaved.

Large open space to take my pup! Lots of room for him to run and get his energy out. My only quarrel is that in the summer it gets a little overgrown, and there is frequently standing water. But the dog parent community is great and my doggie loves to visit!
Big fan of this park, pup loves it! It has that bocce court style sand and gravel, fresh water, double gates, extra disposable bags. All the features you could need. Community keeps it pretty clean. Nice neighborhood right by the schools, not many bad dog owners that I've run into there. No real bullies at the park
It's a cute little park. My only issue is that the park is more like an enormous litter box for dogs. When the dogs come to play and run, the smell of every dog that peed and pooped everywhere within. The other issue is that some people bring their dogs and their dogs aren't at all socialized and they support/reinforce their negative behavior. Some of the people are nice while others are standoffish. The park has special events for dogs too. Those are very nice because you can also get your dog registered at those functions.
