The only issue is that some people show up with dogs who are not socialized and are aggressive and they do nothing when their dog is attacking others. I'm not sure how often they go, but some other dog owners mentioned that it has gotten worse. If you get there and it's empty take advantage of it. The best days are the sunny days when it's early morning or evening!

It's a beautiful landscape that lays host to many event including the 4th of July fireworks. A great place to relax, have a picnic or just relax among nature. It's a beautiful park that is very well kept. The staff keeps it very clean and well maintained. The bathrooms are pretty clean, the staff friendly and it is dog friendly. It also has the Arboretum connected to it. It is a nice hidden treasure of the Campbell Hall and Montgomery area.

I joined the dog park in May as we had just moved to Beacon. I was really happy that they screen…read morethe dogs ahead of time by having them register their dog with the city and submit their vaccination records. No aggressive dogs are allowed. I really appreciate this as my dog is an anxiety prone rescue. While we lived in NYC we couldn't go into any of the dog parks as you never know anything about the dogs. Also, the park is very big so the dogs have space to stay to themselves unlike the small parks in NYC. Everyone I have met is very kind and helpful. I have found out about such great restaurants, contractors, other dog friendly places, vet clinics and a wonderful doggy daycare place.

Not sure what these negative reviews are about…read more...... There is and always has been a separate entrance for small dogs; there is no reason for a small dog not to come here. Secondly thankfully this is a private dog park that anyone can join for an annual fee. Makes me feel safe that only neutered/spayed dogs with all appropriate vaccinations come here. I'm happy to pay $55 a year knowing that all the dogs that come here are fully vaccinated and fixed. Well worth it. I go almost daily, I've yet to see a fight.

I'm not sure if anyone keeps up on this frequently, but it needs to be addressed. I wouldn't be surprised the complaints the park is getting because of it. Other than that, this is still a great and wonderful park to stop at to take in the wonderful nature. **Read my original review for overall details about Long Dock**

Bowdoin Park is one of those parks where "I wish I discovered this place many years back." Driving…read morein leads to many things to do, a playground for the kids, and two big fields with one providing a baseball and soccer field. Picnic tables are scattered throughout the park along with pavilions. The pavilions are in great shape and in use. Bathrooms are provided in the main building. Also, be on the lookout for upcoming mini concerts, which are performed on the hilly field just as you enter. There are a total of six trails that are assigned a color, starting at one point and ending at a different location (with some reconnecting with the same path), except the blue trail, which does a loop, and also the Wappingers Greenway Trail, which passes through. I've enjoyed exploring, with decent views and scenery. The intersections of different paths need to be marked clearly, and instead, the sign is further in. Reading the map is key to not getting lost, which Bowdoin Park provides. There's a lot to offer for all ages, and it's a destination anyone won't regret along the Hudson River with a touch of nature.

Decent dog run that is a pretty good size to run your dog…read more Things it has going for it: - Big, about one acre - Dedicated parking - Plastic bags available to pick ip poop and poop bag dispensers but no poop bags in them - Adequate fencing in most parts of run - Plenty of shade - Has a water source Things it has going against it: - No separate large and small dog runs - Water source that is available is only a hose and a couple of bowls - Limited seating - Dirt and grass ground cover - No bathrooms near run This dog run has the size but it needs a few upgrade and some TLC to make a great dog run. Add a better water source, more seating, have poop bags and this is a 3 star dog run. Upgrade ground cover and upgrade or fix some of the fencing and it is probably a 4 star dog run.

It was only my third time hiking, and that's when I realized how much I love hiking. I definitely plan to hike more often. The Blue Trail is considered beginner-friendly, I found parts of it a bit challenging because of the incline. Still, the effort was worth it, the view of South Beacon Mountain was absolutely beautiful. The hike itself was a great experience, especially with friends. Near the train station, there are small shops where you can grab food, drinks, or any last-minute supplies. There are also restrooms by the station and portable toilet near the trail areas. I would definitely come back to hike there again, maybe do the red trail.

If you go in the winter, take caution with the ice when climbing to the top. After about an hour into the trail, you will see a sign to continue on the Full Loop or the Short Loop. When we reached that point, we switched to the Bull Hill Short Loop. It took around 3 hours to complete. The trails have beautiful views! You will see other hikers, but everyone keeps a safe distance. Take time to stop and enjoy the surrounding. There are portable toilets at the beginning of the trail with hand sanitizers if you need to use a bathroom.
