Right across the way is the less busy one for those people who have dogs who are a bit anti social. There's water for the dogs and trash bags go pick up poop. My small complaint is the dog owners who go here. A lot of them let their dogs physically bite or swipe in a non playful ways and others do not pick up their dog's poop. Besides those two complaints I continue to bring my dog here because she loves running around and making friends.

The great flood of 2018 subsided and we finally got our rambunctious 75lb puppy back to the dog…read morepark! Needless to say, the location of this park causes floods every now and then when the Little Miami rises but it's wonderful when it's open. The dog park is split into 4 locations. Two big/medium fields, one field for smaller dogs under 22lbs and across the street is a small fenced area if your dog is being unruly and needs a time out by themselves. For the most part people clean up after their dogs but we do usually come across some piles, unfortunately. That's the only reason I'm knocking this park a star. There are a few boxes with poop bags but they're widespread. It'd be nice to have more bag boxes. Each big field has a few benches and a water fountain. As you leave, you'll find one more water spicket to wash off with. Sometimes this park can get suuuuuper muddy. Pro tip: add yourself to the Otto Armleder Dog Park FB group to get updates from other dog parents about field conditions.

The Bark Park has quickly become our favorite hangout spot in Florence!

You'll want to plan to spend a little extra time filling out forms the first time you visit - but you can always make things easier on yourself (and on the staff) by signing their waivers via their website, and by emailing them your pet's vet records. I appreciate them being so thorough - we love our dogs and want them to be safe, no matter where they are! Their "Pour-It-Yourself" tap wall is sooo creative and fun. I love the way they have this set up - so their "Bark Rangers" can spend less time pouring drinks, and more time hanging out with the pups. You connect your debit/credit card to one of their tap cards, and then just use that throughout your visit. They even have handy drop-boxes for you to use on your way out, so you don't have to bother with the tedious "closing out" process. We've tried several of their rotating brews at this point - but our favorite is actually the Bark-veza, which was specially made for the Bark Park! We also have to shout out the GM, Amanda. During both of our visits, she's been extra attentive to our overly excited puppy, and even offered us some excellent training advice for our older, more anxious/reserved dog as well. We've purchased day passes for our last two visits ($10/dog), but we're seriously considering a monthly membership for both of our pups in the New Year. Thank you, Bark Park, for being such a wonderful place to spend a weeknight evening!

The park includes nice restrooms (for the humans), a clean pond with a dock for the dogs to play in, agility equipment and plenty of benches and tables. The cost is usually around $15/visit and the more you buy the cheaper it is. Check out the website for discounts and events. One of my favorites is "Yappy Hour"... $15 gets two dogs in the park and 6 beer tickets - perfect for dogs and humans!

They also have water for dogs, benches to sit on, a picnic table to eat at, and a gorgeous huge ancient oak tree that my dog climbed up, impressing another dog owner. There are plenty of poop bags and garbage cans to dispose of your dogs' poop. Some owners didn't pick up their dog's poop but that is the owners' fault. I picked mine's up. My dog had so much fun running around with me, I had brought a toy. Since it was a wet cooler (but warm for the month) weekday midday we were alone for a while then joined by a sweet lady bulldog. When a small beagle came in, it chased my dog around and when another sleek fast dog joined the beagle in chasing my dog, the beejesus was scared out of my dog. I sat on the bench and my 70-lb pitbull jumped in my lap for protection from the dogs.

She never had any issues at all and all the other dogs seemed to love her and want to play with her. We took her in April and she got attacked by all of the other 14 dogs that were there, tried to hide behind a man sitting against the fence to get away from the other dogs. She had to get 4 stitches in her neck from another dog biting her. None of the other owners seemed to have any issue with what happened when all of these dogs came after mine for no reason at all. Tried to take her back in June. It went a little bit better until a woman with 2 dogs showed up and both of them went after my dog. We left before it got bad, but that woman had nothing to say about the way her dogs were acting. Lots of unaltered and aggressive dogs with seemingly irresponsible owners. Definitely wouldn't recommend going here unless you want to deal with a stressful situation every time you take your dog to the park.

Most people are very conscientious about watching their pups. I haven't seen many squabbles. Be warned, there is one very large long haired German shepherd named Alpha, who constantly dominates and humps other dogs. His owner does not try to stop him. He likes to defecate in the pond and she does not try to stop him or scoop it out. If this dog is there, keep a close eye on your dog. There are 4 different areas where you can take your dog. If your dog is not getting along with another dog, you can move to one of the other areas which is convenient. This is a very nice place to take your dog on these terribly hot days for a cool dip. There is even a dog toy library with toys for dogs to play with.

For fear of something happening to my dog or I, we have to leave when he comes around which is almost daily.

Cons: 1) No separate sizing marshmallow (pictured below) is small so i prefer parks with sizing differences but that is hard to come by 2) Large sized mulch - my dog is pretty small (15 lbs) and she had no problem with the mulch/bark size but I could see some small dogs having problems with it

I have such a great experience here always. This park truly has a little bit of everything, and…read moreit's one of those parks that is welcoming for all ages. One of my favorite parts was the nature center. The staff and naturalists were incredibly kind and helpful, and the space itself is really well done. There's a cute gift shop, educational displays, and even a small children's museum feel with a few live animals to see. It's a great spot to learn something new or play around. Outside, the park is incredible. The trails are extremely well maintained, both the wooded paths and the paved ones, making it perfect for an easy walk or a hike. There's also an outdoor fitness trail that I loved. It has different workout stations along the way, and it's actually really fun, not just functional. It's a great way for both kids and adults to be active. There's also a huge playground and a mini water park area for kids, plus accessible bathrooms and good seasonal amenities. It's very family friendly without feeling overcrowded. If you're into disc golf, this place is a gem. There's a large disc golf course, and they even sell discs and gear right inside the nature center. Another thing worth mentioning is how amazing Great Parks of Hamilton County is overall. They offer so many programs like beginner fishing, guided hikes, plant swaps, art workshops, amphibian hunts, and even owl pellet dissections. Not all of these are specific to this park, but many are hosted here, and it really adds to how special the experience is. Overall, this is an extremely pleasant place to spend time. Whether you're walking the trails, working out, bringing kids to play, or just exploring the nature center, there's something for everyone.

There's also a large playground next to the splash pad area. The reason why I took off the stars is if you have a smaller kid, the big slides are tough for them. Older kids will push and cut in line and they are aggressive. Some of their parents don't even watch them so it gets chaotic. There is a section for little kids but there's not much in there. The most fun for them is the big slides. Plan to get wet because you will! It can also get very crowded so be prepared.
