Fantastic facility! Fantastic staff! Fantastic Community structure!…read more There are wonderful rolling hills which create natural divisions in which dogs will group, so it's like having several yards within one. The pond is deep enough and contoured enough to provide a lot of variation and slope. The physical build of the docks is top notch. There is enough shade at the pond for humans to be comfy. The bathing facilities are so "Temple Grandin" with full length windows at each of the very clean walk-in tubs, and they all look out over the park! My pup LOVED IT. Be prepared to state your animal's positive and/or challenging behaviors in written detail, and give yourself enough time to really read the community guidelines and education. Last but not least, it doesn't hurt to have an attached dog-friendly tavern which occasionally has food via one food truck or another. It's almost worth moving there for this park!

He growled a short. growl and got out of the situation It happend with a black wolf like dog. The vet said it was completely normal. Also.the staff needs to listen to both sides of a complaint and if there are more complaints from a single person consider what they are upset about!! I have found a really nice smaller dog park in Kalamazoo. There isn't the stress of Meadow run. There's a centralized area where people and dogs socialize with plenty of benches so people can sit and watch their dogs easily. There are objects like trees, benches and a fire hydrant to help get a visual on area to look to pick up poop bags available ! The park isn't enormous so dogs disappear! People are very friendly. It's great!!

Although it didn't seem very sizable, it has plenty of accommodations, including facilities, soccer fields softball fields, and I believe a miniature airplane flying field as well.

I absolutely loved this dog park the first couple times I visited. But, since then my dog has been…read moreattacked 5 times by two different dogs. The dog just darts for mine who is just wondering around the park and this last time made contact with my dog and bit her and rammed into her butt. I confronted the owner and she acted like her dog did no wrong and didn't show any aggression. Then later she put her dog on the leash and it went after a different dog but she still claims the dog "showed no aggression". Great area but unfriendly dogs.

If you are looking for a dog park with a lot of land, water available (minus the winter months),…read moreand fenced in, this dog park is highly recommended. An important note is that there are two parks here. There is a small dog park and the large one. The rest of this review is for the big dog park: There is a two tier fencing system, where you can open one gate, take your dog in, take the leash off, and then let them run into the park. There are also poop bags in this area, and it is expected that you pick up after your dog. It has two major parts, one being flat and where most people will hang out. There are benches for people to sit and hose water for the dogs. On the other side, there is a small hill with trees in which squirrels live, so some dogs like to chase them from tree to tree. There are also chairs throughout, so you don't have to be by people unless you want to. Due to the large size, it may take some time to get to your dog if you need to so keep that in mind and stay close to your dog if you are worried they could get into trouble. Overall, I highly recommend this dog park to anyone with energetic dogs that like to run!

We ALWAYS make a stop at this park, i can't believe it's free. So much room for the pups to play and my dog's favorite part is the pools.

This park is also free, donations accepted. The park has a fenced area for small dogs, big dogs and a walk area that is similar to hiking with plenty of trees with your dog (this part is leashed). My small dog enjoyed the whole park. There is a place for water and more than enough trash bags if you forgot yours to pick up after your dog. Lots of trees for shade and a small area to also get shade if you'd prefer that instead. It is a little sandy in some parts so I'd recommend wearing shoes that you don't mind getting dirty..and be prepared to get sand in your car.. I'll be back if I'm in the area again. Highly recommended!

This dog park is pretty special because not only can one expect a fenced-in dog park with areas for…read moredogs over 25 lbs and under 25 lbs, but also there's a wooded fenced-in area with a trail. My spouse, two pups, and I happily spent 95% of our time doing laps in the woods. The only downside to the park is that it's close to I-196, so the sounds of nature are drowned out by traveling vehicles. I consider it a small price to pay for peace of mind with that secure fence. I'll definitely bring my girls here again.
