55This is a great yard for ball chasing with a nice spot to sit and hang out. We saw and heard neighbors, which was OK for us but might not work for everyone.Anne H.

55My two pups really enjoyed the space!! It was extremely clean, open, and big! I have an European Doberman and a cockapoo they both had plenty of space to run and to chase balls. The host was the sweetest ever. There were no other dogs or animals (like rabbits or squirrels). The host provided a big bucket of very nice toys, a clean large bowl of water, hand sanitizer and poop bags! Everything was perfect, we went on a rainy day and the pups were not muddy at all just simple wipe of their paws cleaned them up! There is no sand also which was awesome. Sara A.

55Sadly, I had to cancel because of rain but we were really excited to visit this yard. Kerra messaged me offering to fill up the kiddy pool for the pups and was very responsive throughout, including when we had to cancel. I hope to be able to visit within the next couple weeks!Hillary D.

55Super location and amenities. Kerra provided everything possible to keep our Dobie busy and content—a great bucket of toys, lots of nooks and crannies to sniff and ample room to run. For us, lovely shade and seating, hand sanitizer and did I mention super convenient location. Highly recommend and will return. Jane A.

55Lovely, peaceful yard. The pups had a great time running around with the toys and chasing each other. Open space but still shady enough that we humans could avoid the direct sun. This will be at the top of our list for next time!Lisa H.

If your dog loves water, you can go to a park with water features, but if they don't love water, you can avoid them. We also recommend reading reviews to check for park maintenance issues and reaching out to the host with any questions. And lastly, of course, check park hours. Many of our parks are open from dawn until dusk.

Many parks allow doggie birthday parties, training, water parties and other event types.
