Love this dog park! It's a huge dog park that is surrounded by water. There are two entrances to…read morethe dog park. Both with double gates to ensure the dogs don't get out when you are bringing yours in. They do a great job at ensuring there are poop bags and the trashes are emptied. If at any time the dogs are not getting along there is so much space to separate them and not worry about it. This is the best dog park I have been to! Highly recommend!!

Military Reserve is a great area for hiking and biking. I actually call it Mountain Cove Area…read more It's kinda my go to area for when it's muddy. It's pretty easy to go to, and get a little work out after work, If I'm in a hurry. What I like most is the military cemetery. Also the views of the downtown cityscape. The city does a good job of developing and maintaining these areas. We're fortunate to have access to these kinds of areas. Hey and it's free.

Pros - Beautiful! Glorious! Clean! Serene! Easy parking…read more They provide dog poo bags, so it'll be sure to use them. . Note - Not for bikes, but wheelchair accessible throughout. It is recommended to bring a map or follow yourself on GPS. There are restrooms at the parking lot, as well as inside the trails. Don't forget bug repellant. Some trails are off limit , so be careful. . Cons - Could use a few more benches scattered around the park.

We went for a nice walk in the park. I got to see how parks get winterized. The ponds were…read moredrained and fountains shut down. This is another place I will need to revisit during the spring/summer! I still got to see ducks and enjoy the very brisk air. So different from back home!

The stairs may look a bit intimidating at first, but the hike was actually short and pretty easy…read more There was a little boy, maybe 3 or 4 years old, climbing beside me with his dad and despite all the whining, he made it to the top too! The sunset view at the top was absolutely stunning, we came on a clear day and could see the entire city blanketed in trees. Such a breathtaking sight and definitely a must-see when visiting Boise. The parking lot was easy to find with plenty of space, making the whole experience even better.

This is one of the MOST EPIC parks I've ever been to. It was filled to brim with life, adventure…read moreand just wholesome fun. I came here on a Saturday afternoon and there were kids soccer games, folks playing tennis, families working out, and all ages hiking the hills. Behind the park is even tons of winding trails for both hiking and biking. While the climb up to the top of the main hill wasn't all that long, it was definitely steep. With the sun beaming down, it felt rather invigorating and provided a nice feeling of accomplishment making it to the top. This park definitely is a special part of town and it's clear that local residents definitely cherish and appreciate it!

To start, it was great! I love that there are separate areas for the big dogs and the small ones…read more Both spaces were nice and big, plenty of space for the dogs to run and play. My only "complaint" is the proximity to the racetrack-- I took my pups there on a Saturday and I'm guessing there were either races going or just practice, but it was very loud, including a lot of backfiring of the cars. Most of the dogs didn't seem to mind, but my little one (who's scared of fireworks and that kind of thing) did end up being scared and just sitting by me. All in all, they had a great time, just might be more aware of the going's on at the racetrack before taking them :)

Unfortunately, I'll need to drop a star. 90% of dog owners let the dogs off leash outside of the…read moreenclosed area. 50% of the owners don't pick up their dog droppings. I've seen several people vaping there. A large dog was brought into the small dog side and knocked a woman down. She couldn't walk, nor drive.

Clean, loving, caring, professional. Simply the Best for my sweet girl. Thank you Staff of IDP.

This dog park is gross! There is so much poop everywhere and no one is picking it up. The dog…read moreowners that bring their dogs here just to poop and don't clean it up are completely irresponsible. The fact that there is so much poop also indicates there isn't any grounds personnel cleaning up there often either. If it was clean I would go back as it is a good quiet location.

Art in the Park at Julia Davis Park…read more Art in the Park at Julia Davis Park is such a fun experience! The event is right along the Boise Greenbelt, so you can stroll through all the incredible art vendors and then enjoy a walk around the large, beautiful park. Fun fact: Julia Davis Park is the oldest park in Boise, established in 1907, and it's still one of the city's most popular gathering spots. There were so many vendors with a big variety of artwork, with something for every taste. I even found the perfect gift for my step-dad-in-law: a mountains and sun piece made out of different kinds of rocks. If you're an art lover, this event is a must-go-to. Another bonus is how easy it is to explore the area. You can rent e-bikes and e-scooters nearby to cover more ground. And every time we go, we always stop to see the giraffes at Zoo Boise, which is right next to the park. It makes for a full day of art, nature, and fun. Great place for families and anyone who wants to soak in Boise's creative and community vibe!

It was created by a donation of 43 acres in 1907 from Thomas Davis.
