This is a brand new dog park in a nice area near the hotel we were staying at this week so we…read morestopped here to try it out. Because it's new, the fencing and tables and landscaping are all in good condition. But this park is lacking a lot. The first thing we noticed when we entered is that the gates do not latch, they are push gates. This is very unsafe as large dogs could easily push through and then let other dogs out. They are also slow closing gates which allows the dogs more time to run in and out. The park is on the corner and there is street traffic. This should be remedied immediately for the safety of all dogs using this park. Second, this park had no water available for the dogs! No water bowls, no hose or pools, not even a spigot to run water out of people who had their own receptacles with them. There is zero water available. I don't understand how a dog park gets built with no water station. The park is entirely sand and cement and while sand may possibly be better for some larger breeds joints, it is a very poor material to choose for a dog park. Sand holds in heat and can burn dogs paws on a hot day . It also holds bacteria . For us, it was noticeably messy and is definitely not good for dogs and people prone to slipping. While we were visiting the park, someone from an animal rescue dropped off about a dozen used balls and a frisbee. While that seems more like dumping to me, I hope it's an indicator that the community likes this park and that it will be used and treasured and in that spirit, I hope that they will come together to remedy some of the issues that the designers clearly did not care enough to think through or address. As aesthetically lovely as the park looks, we would definitely not bring our pup back here.

This is a great park. It is so clean. There is shade water and a place for owners to sit.

The area to run is huge. If your dog finds a good friend they definitely get their energy out.

I've only been here this one time so far, so based on this experience it is a 4.5 - 5 star dog park. All the owners today were very responsible with their dogs.

There isn't any water or dog bags, but there are garbages and a shovel. I believe last time we went there were bowls too. The only issue I have is that you have to park across the street and walk down a "hill" which can be difficult with a double stroller and two ding dong dogs. ' Another thing -- my gps took me to the wrong area the first time so I had a really difficult time finding this place.

Unfortunately I have a smaller dog and the small dog area is quite small. Not many people seem to come to the small dog area and I don't blame them. Although there is some seating and some shade, there is no grass and not a lot of room to run. Parking is convenient as the park is on a corner so street parking was available when we arrived. This park was ok, but I probably won't come back; the beach is just too close to use this park again.

Restroom…read morefor women was spartan without soap but was nicely aired out and could get the job done though I think it was out of toilet paper just before lunch - or maybe it was just hidden well. Avoid the side trails near the restroom closest to Reservation Road. Losers let their dogs crap and they don't pick it up and the weeds are overgrown. Otherwise, the roughly 0.75 mile loop around the park is generally flat and nice on decomposed granite. I loved the signage that encourages parents to let their children explore and share with their parents. Signs in English and Spanish. There's a pond but it's severely overgrown by marsh vegetation so it wasn't recognizable as a pond but looked like a marsh. Playground seemed cool. There's a grassy and partially shaded area near the playground at the end of the street off Reservation Road.

In the past year a flock of crows, not sure that is what it is called, nests here. Hundreds of crows in the trees and hang out on the surrounding roads, so watch out! They're very loud and I am so happy they are no where near my apartment. A path was open that normally had been overgrown and it was cool to walk into the marsh sort of. I was a bit creeped out but, I kept my eyes open and took a short video. From inside this short pathway you could have a peace and quiet moment with the surrounding black birds and sort feel as if you were somewhere else. The park itself is not large and the bathroom is always closed, but, it is a gorgeous little gem in Marina for a quick walk. Cheers and happy Yelping.
