There's a lot of different types of dog parks out there, but this one is one of the best ones I've…read moreever been to. First of all they separate into two sections and allow for you to have your dog on a leash and a protected area and the other side is open area where all dogs are off leash. The owners are top-notch people who are very knowledgeable about dogs and take extra precautions as they monitor all situations. There is also food and drinks available! Definitely come, check it out!

This "Petsafe" dogpark is located at Doyal park. This is an excellent place to bring your dog!!…read more The dog park is two acres, where dogs can run around and have a blast. There is a separate section for small dogs, and plenty of dog bags (to pick up waste) on both sides. Some people seem to think it's okay to let you dog poo and leave it. It's not okay. Now that we've cleared up the confusion, back to the park. There is water available, but it's outside the fence. I recommend bringing a bowl to fill up and have inside. The park is great, with benches, and plenty of shade. Oh, and Plenty of parking from what I've experienced. Overall a great place to bring the fur balls!

Lakeshore is a wonderful public park situated along the Tennessee River and offering some…read morespectacular views of the Smoky Mountains. I finally got a chance to come here with my neighbor and her toddler on a weekday and I was surprised how many kids were at the playground. However, we never felt crowded here and there are several playgrounds in the park, with one being in a slightly wooded section. Besides children's playgrounds, the park offers extensive greenways, sports facilities, and even, event spaces. Sports facilities include: baseball/softball fields, soccer field and an outdoor fitness center. On my next visit, I'm going to explore even more of the greenways and try to find the steel sculpture in the park called the "Quantum Embrace." Know before you go: 1) Lakeshore is open daily: 6 am - 10 pm 2) Plenty of parking spaces 3) There are public restrooms onsite 4) Events at the park hosted by the Roots & Revelry Group. Some events coming up are Paint & Sip (April 28th) and Mahjong in Garden (May 12th)

This is one of my favorite parks in all of Knoxville. First it's so big. The park has an amazing…read moreloop that's perfect if you're trying to do a few laps to get some miles in. It also has a trail that goes beside a pond and goes into a wooded area that's great if you're looking for a more serene experience. In addition there is a dog park and typically when I've been there the people are very chill which is not the same at other dog parks I've been to where some folks can be a little uptight. There's a large shelter - perfect for picnics - and large green fields which often hosts soccer games among other sports. Finally I don't have children but from what I can tell the playground looks fantastic - pretty new and updated very big and there's always a lot of kids playing at it. There's also a pretty large frisbee golf course. Victor Ashe has a little bit of everything for the whole family which is why I love it so much!

This is an excellent dog park, equipped with multiple water stations (including a wash station),…read moretwo separate areas (one for small dogs, one for large), an open field for running, share and benches for owners, and even some walking trails! This dog park is fairly new, and has some young trees. Most of the trees are too young to provide shade, but should be great in the future. The grassy area is located on a hillside, which makes chasing a ball a little strange. It could be good if your pooch is a diehard ball chaser; just tossing a ball down the hill would be great exercise. Mine golden retriever retrieves about 40% to 50% of the time, lol. You get the idea. It could be great excercise for ME! There is only one sitting area for owners (pet parents), but maybe they will install more in the future. During this summer heat, we spent most of our time in the wooded area, but there's no seating there. Overall, a great dog park! I hope it continues to be well maintained & developed.

Strong secure entry gates. There are great water stations on both sides of the park for dogs and humans as well and water bowls scattered around. We'll supplied dog poop bags, and there's even a wash station. There's only one small area under shade and cover with two benches on each side, so be aware if it's sunny that there's no other coverage for dogs or humans. There are bathrooms and a small children's park located near by as well. The highlights of this park are the multiple walking trails. They start on either side of the dog park with trails around the park that go all the way to the old entrance off of Alcoa Highway. These are well kept, cleared regularly after bad weather, and are slightly hilly but easy to walk and the dogs love it.

I would say the only bummer to here is there will be very limited street parking usually about four spaces and one more for handicap and the rest are usually filled on the right side of the street do to the residents that live in the condo's across the street. And that should be a friendly case of doggy fun. The park also offers bags to handle your dog's business once duty calls!

The negative is that the grass needs tending as a lot of it is dirt, everyone doesn't pick up after their dogs so there is a bad smell, and the homeless camp right outside the back of the fence.
