55Is was a bit daunting as it was my first time but all I had to do was look for the sign, my dog seemed to know the way even as she’d never been there before. The place was neat and dog ready with water and treats. I love the tall bushes/trees as they gave a sense of privacy. There was seating for me but I didn’t get to sit much tossing and retrieving balls. My dog had a great time and we’d like to go back again.
55The host was very responsive to a last minute booking and left water and treats for both dogs and humans. Great host, and spot is as advertised.
55Another successful playdate at Bear's Den.
55We had a great time at Bears Den and got lots of sprints in. Everything was as described and well maintained. They even supplied toys, dog treats, human treats and water. Would book again!
55Another great experience here! This is our go-to spot.
55Ducky loves Bears Den.
55Bear’s is the best sniff spot we’ve been to. It’s very clean and well stocked with toys, treats and water.
55Thanks for letting us use your wonderful yard, our puppies love it here!
55Love Linda’s and Bears Den. It’s a very welcoming place. My dog loves it.
55My dog always has a great time at Bear’s Den! There is always a big bowl of fresh water, plenty of toys and lots of space for zoomies. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful, perfect for a relaxing walk before heading home.

Notice: We are closing the spot on May 23rd for maintenance. Sorry for the inconvenience. Grass and rain: Please keep in mind that during moderate to heavy rains the area without mulch can get muddy. Beginning May of 2024, we will post pictures daily to our Instagram account showing the condition of the spot. As you can imagine, due to the wear and tear the spot gets, it’s difficult to keep the grass alive. However, we do our best to reseed during the spring. BarkPark sits right across the street from The Salvation Army Freedom Center. This spot is fully fenced (chain link and wood) with the side facing the sidewalk being 5ft and the rest of the fence being 6ft. There is a dual-gate entrance to the spot for a safe entry and exit. Street parking is available. There is plenty of seating at this spot with shade throughout the day. There's a rain barrel filled with water for dogs to hydrate and cool down. We have water bowls available. GIANT sandbox that's great for digging and playing; no digging elsewhere please. On hot days, we do our best to keep the sand wet. Trash can onsite. We have poop bags available in two different areas for easy access. Half of this spot is covered with grass and the other half with playground mulch. This spot is big enough to get a good fetch session in or to just let the zoomies out. We also recently added agility equipment. We hope you and your four-legged friend/s have an exceptional time during your visit and choose to come back. Lost toys and items: Due to the amount of visits we get we aren’t able to track which items belong to which guest. If you’ve lost a dog toy or other item, please reach out and we’ll do our best to retrieve it and hold it for you. If you don’t reach out, we’ll hold onto it for a week and then add it to the Lost and Found Toy Box. Water: The dog drinking water gets changed 1-2 times per week, depending on the temperature/usage. During the winter months we empty the water barrel. If your dog/s require water during the winter months, we ask that you please bring your own. Food: You’re welcomed to bring food but we ask that you please clean up as a courtesy to other guests. Future additions: We hope to add more amenities over time. Our plans are to add more sand to the sandbox in late April or early May of 2024. We’re also hoping to have on-site parking around mid summer of 2024. If you have any suggestions for amenities, we’d love to hear your feedback.
