She's also black lab and loves swimming (typical) and this dog park has a trail across the Fox River where dogs can just jump in and out during their walk on small sandy beaches to cool off. Our dog had sooo much fun and even made some friends. It's not a fenced in dog park, so only take your dog if you can trust them. There is a busy road across the parking lot. They are allowed to be off leash throughout the entire forest preserve in the area before the bridge. I also love that the paths are natural and it's super foresty and shaded.

Yeah, I am disappointed I didn't find this dog park sooner! What a purely awesome layout! My dogs…read moreabsolutely LOVED it! Plenty of different trails, the river, LOTS of space and beautiful scenery too. My wife and I walked around for a couple of hours while the dogs ran from one spot to the next. We made the mistake of going right when we left the parking area... Left was a better choice. But the area that is not part of the unleashed dog area is still beautiful. We walked out over the river on the newly constructed bridge and just took in the views. Then walking back we found another path back into the unleashed area which brought us to the river, which my dogs were all about, sprinting directly into the water before we could even catch up, it was a warm day. Overall I love this park, and it is well worth the trip for a nice walk. Highly recommend that anyone with a dog who loves to run, get wet, play with other dogs or just walk with you try this place!

Overall a great time of meeting cute dogs while my Aussie gets to burn some energy!

My review is for the disc golf course only. This course is like no other in the area. Uphill…read moreshots, swooping downhill shots, and fairways thinner than a dopey high school kids blue jeans. Come prepared to throw straight here. Another big recommendation would be to watch where your disc goes. Take your eyes off it and you'll have a very hard time finding it. We enjoyed the course primarily due to the up & down factor. I believe all the holes are par-3's, but the angles and inability to see some of the baskets from the tee mat make for a few par-4's. Many holes involving climbing or descending steps, as several of them revolve around a natural ravine. The only downside on this course would probably be the brush and bugs. In season, mosquito's and ticks are going to be nasty, especially if you have to hunt off-fairway for your disc. Otherwise, this is a very unique and fun course to play. And..after a few rounds, several of the holes probably become par-2's. Cheers.

With a nature playground, pollinator garden, and nice walking trails. There was a paved trail available for those with strollers as well. We even looked up and saw a deer watching us from about 10ft away. While the one downside was no bathroom (it looks like the nature center is only open Friday and Saturday) and a few biting flies... it was worth it to stretch our legs in nature for a bit. We'll consider this place again when traveling through.

Cheap to get in - $2.75 for adults, $2.00 for kids I think. You can buy bags of feed for the animals - those are $.75 per bag (usually need about 5 bags, depending on how generous you are to the animals!). It's not really a place to spend the whole day, but it's nice for an afternoon out. They have a couple of playgrounds for the kids, and it's my understanding they have party pavilions for rent - like at a forest preserve. Easy drive from Chicago - 90 W to Randall Rd. north; go about 5 miles and it will be on the left.
