The waterfront brings cool breeze on hot summer days which is a plus. There's also restrooms which is a plus. The only problem is the restroom has no air condition so imagine the funky oder! Phew...! There is also no soap so I'm glad I had my hand sanitizer right after washing my hands with only water. There's also a stage performance of live band which was awesome for entertaining everyone while we wait for fireworks in the dusk. Because many others were here with their pets and also seeing the fireworks, there's so much traffic and road closures with cops detouring all traffic. The firework show above the waterfront was up front and very beautiful. I will definitely come back again next year but definitely earlier to get better parking. After certain time, you can't drive your vehicle into the park. The cops make people find parking elsewhere and the walk into the park gets pretty lengthy.

Both had gazebos for my humans to sit in and a few benches scattered about. The best part of the park was the giant dog ramp that I could run up and down. Pros: Lots of space - Dog ramp - Grass - Poop bags available - Fountains for me and my humans Cons: - In the middle of no where - Little Shade - Porta Potty on site (wouldve liked a real bathroom) I might go back for a second chance if Im in the area! ~L

Both sides have water available for the dogs and a number of different obstacles for them to run around on off-leash and areas to drink, but also some random puddles.

Lot of bugs at the edges, though, especially in the muddy areas, and I killed a tick I saw, too, so you have to be careful. Parking can get quite busy at peak times.

Great dog park! With a few things that could be upgraded. I…read moredrive 20 minutes to come here as a treat for my dogs, as it's the largest dog park I know of and has some great off-leash allowed walking space as well. There is basically 4 different areas in this park - a small dog area, 2 large dog areas and a short wooded path that you can walk on with your dog. Sometimes I've been here where they close half the larger dog area, I'm not sure why this is. In the parking lot, there is a port-a-john for us humans, and trash can/doggie bags for the pups. Everyone seems to be really responsible here with their dog which is a major benefit. Some cons: - can be muddy after rain - no trash cans or bags provided inside the park area, only before you enter the park - sometimes they close half the park (I don't know why this is?) - limited seating/benches for humans

It's close to the water so it can get a little chilly but worth the visit to exercise the furbabies. Will be visiting soon..

Ok its been a year and not much has changed with this park. I had even contacted the public works…read morerep for this particular field and other then taking down the rusty old dog bag dispenser, nothing has happened. Let me begin by stating that due to lazy residents who frequent this place, there are piles of dog feces that are never picked up. By lazy residents I mean those of you who do not care to pick up after your dog, yourselves or those annoying cigarette butts that magically dont make it to the trash can area. Why anyone allows smoking with in the gates, is beyond me.... . When I contacted the city it was to ask 1) why the 3 emails I had sent were never answered and 2) to discuss issues that needed looking after. The main issue was the water fountain that has become more of an art form (bad art) vs. somthing of use. Granted Hurrican sandy happened but this was an issue LOOOOOONG before that happened. Infact, I had finally gotten the rep for the parks to come speak with me and did not get the feeling he actually cared. His excuse was to blame the residents (the lazy ones) and to tell me that he only had 25 workers to help with the many parks under his authority. Well, you know what they say about excuses, right? So nothing was done to this park other then the rusty dog bag dispenser and the mowing of the grass which was a plus, but not enough. I had left for the summer and came back in late Sept. to find that nothing had changed. However, I had now been going to the Lincoln dog park and it is 10x's nicer. They even were smart to use sand, vs grass to keep down the flea and tick issues. It also makes cleaning dog poo up easier. Its not great on my gas tank but I'll do anything for my pets. Along with the fountain that is still there and still not working, there are now issues with aggressive dogs. My dog was attacked on 4 different occasions at the Bayonne park and once at Lincoln. There is no promise that a dog park visit will be nice, however, thanks to irresponsible dog owners, this has become an issue at the Bayonne park more and more lately. Let me help those of you understand what aggressive means. It means your dog goes after other dogs for no reason, goes after a dog for a toy (this is toy aggression) or cannot share toys with out going crazy, same with water. There should be no guarding when it comes to toys or water if its in an aggressive manor. NOTE: humping is NORMAL in a dog park!! It is a way they show dominance. If your dog is humping another and that other dog turns quickly and growls/snaps but lets up immediately, THIS IS NOT AGGRESSION. It is the way they solve this dominance behavior on their own and teachers your dog not to do it again. If they continue to go after your dog and do not let up after a few secconds, then this is aggression issues. Pitt bulls are looked down upon but that is because 95% of their owners do not train their dogs correctly!!!! However they are a great breed if you TRAIN THEM!!!. Labs are #3 on the list of dogs that bite the most, so stop focusing on just the breed rather the owners ability to train their dogs. IE. Your dog goes after mine aggessively for a toy or no reason at all more then once, YOU need to TAKE THEM OUT OF THE PARK! Point being people, if your dog is not pleasant (no matter how good they are at home with YOU) , you need to be responsible and take them out of the park. Otherwise expect a hefty vet bill one day or even a lawsuit can happen. Learn to be responsible so those of us with well behaved dogs can enjoy the park. If this info upsets you then you are more than likely one of those people who believe that your dog is an angel and more then likely not one at the park. As for the city, please either put up a note explaining the fountain issue or actually fix the things! In all dog parks! A pipe and spicket are all that are needed. Humans can bring their own water, but our dogs need it no matter what. Especially on these hot days. I am tired of trying to email the city over this and I dont care to hear excuses anymore. If your boys cannot get to it Im sure a lot our dog owning community would love to help out granted you give us the correct instruments to do so. Thats pretty much it, to sum it up, Oh and small dog people, we big dog owners welcome you if you can hang with out issue, however, if you have a big dog, bring it to the big dog park. Not the small one. That is too small a space to have that many big dogs in one area. It creates and tense and aggressive atomosphere.

I am also so happy that Wheeler park welcomes everyone from all over NJ (and elsewhere). Coming from out of the county will cost you a bit more, but not much. If you live outside of Union County it is $4.00 for kids ($2.00 in county) and $6.00 for adults ($3.00 in county). This splash pad has every water feature a kid could ever need - from bigger twisty water slides, to a small dragon water slide. Also, water guns that you can shoot each other with, a pirate boat, water shooting up from the ground, and much more. My kids spent a little over 2 hours here and had an absolute blast. We've been here about 3 times and it never disappoints. Just be sure to bring some sort of shade covering. There isn't much cover at the splash pad so we usually bring our small beach tent with us. There is also a dry playground in the splash pad gated area where kids can play too. They have staff who help keep the kids safe and to make sure everyone goes down the water slides safe and sound. I highly recommend Wheeler Spray Park on a hot summer day.
