What works

Open every day
No closed days on the schedule, though the hours shift through the week.
Dogs welcome
A dedicated run, so the dog gets the main event rather than a tolerated corner of somewhere else.
Works with kids
Flagged as family-friendly, which usually means room to run and somewhere for the adults to sit.
Free parking
A free lot — one less thing to pay for, though paid options sit alongside it.
Easy to pair with a second stop
19 other dog parks sit in the same city, so a wash-out here need not waste the trip.

Planning a visit

General guidance for dog parks, adjusted for what this listing records.

What to expect

A fenced run where dogs are typically off-leash and owners end up talking to each other whether they planned to or not.

A good fit for dog owners who want off-leash time without driving across town.

When to go

Before and after work are the busiest, most social windows. Midday is calmer if your dog prefers space.
