I do like that they…read morehave two separate areas, one for large dogs and one for small dogs, so it feels a bit safer and more organized. My dog loves going there and always has a great time playing and running around. That said, there are some issues worth noting. A couple years ago, a friend of mine had a truly tragic experience when her dog was attacked and killed by another dog at this park, which is heartbreaking and something people should be aware of. Also, the grass isn't real, it's turf, and while the sprinklers run every night, there's often still a heavy dog poop odor that lingers and makes the place a little unpleasant. Overall, my pup enjoys it, but be cautious, keep an eye on your dog at all times, and know that upkeep could definitely be better.

This park will always have a special place in my heart because it's where my wife and I got engaged…read moreover 10 years ago. We since moved away from Reno, so it was special to be able to return after all this time with our children. My bias aside though, Im a firm believer there are few parks in the country that are as good as this one. To start, its HUGE! I don't think I've really ever seen the whole thing. There are rolling fields of grass, an "arboretum" which is like taking a walk in the mountains, a lake, playgrounds, a museum, gardens, a dog park, and idk what else. It's so beautiful wherever you go, and you can easily sink a day into exploring here.

We found Bijou on Yelp and made our way over. Holy moly this park was awesome! Firstly it is large. Plenty of room for all of the pups to run around and there were a lot of dogs when we were here. Secondly all of the dogs and owners were so well behaved! Often times (at least where I live) I find owners in dog parks quite oblivious to the actions of their dog. This was however not the case here. All owners were friendly and keeping an eye on their own dogs and encouraging good (normal) dog imitative play behavior. I would definitely come back to this park!

Fourth of July…read more.. We've been coming to the spark for the Fourth of July fireworks near 20 years now. They always have some fun and festivities in the park during the day. Usually live music, or broadcast radio station from inside the park. We back up to the main road, get out our chairs, and wait for sundown. Our routine usually includes making some fried chicken and potato salad and going to the lake or the river. Spend a few hours there and then head to Fernley. It is absolutely one of the best firework shows around. Not sure if it's just a holiday, but we always meet people in make friends while we wait for the show. I see they have other events here through the year, but definitely if you have not tried, come watch the fireworks on Fourth of July.

A park with a view and lake access!…read more LOCATION: West of the Galaxy Theater Legends IMAX on the south side of Sparks Marina Park Lake right on the beach. DECOR: Mid August and it's half grass, half dirt patch field enclosed in a chain-link fence with about 100 yards of room to run around. Trees sprinkled through. Perfectly unobstructed view of the lake and backdrop mountains. Sunset view. AMENITIES: Benches to sit, a walkway/sidewalk if your want to stay out of the grass and dirt. Trashcans and a drinking fountain for people and pets. Lake access. EXPERIENCE: I took my pup, Nala, here on her birthday and she had a blast. The park entrance contains a double gate to ensure dogs to get in or out accidentally. There were at least 4 other dogs at any given time at the park and they were all friendly. Owners were not oblivious to their pets wandering around. Owners were also not aggressive or upset when other dogs came up to them. Nala played in the water a bit with other dogs although she didn't swim. When she was tired, she'd find a patch of grass to enjoy under the shade of a tree. Then, she'd hop back out to herding the other dogs. Lol. She got some great socialization in and the walk from the parking lot wasn't too far. However, I've seen smaller dogs like Frenchies needing to be carried there if it's hotter days so keep that in mind if you're pup doesn't do too well on longer walks out the heat.

They were bursting with frogs, baby fish and tadpoles. We all really enjoyed our visit and will be returning!

CRYSTAL PEAK PARK is an adventure once you find it !!…read more If you're looking for a remote atmosphere with mountain views, ponds & the Truckee River, this is it. Take I-80 West past Boomtown to Exit 3 for Verdi.Turn left onto South Verdi Road at the bottom of the ramp (look for the sign pointing to Crystal Peak Park). Follow the road as it twists under I-80, crosses the railroad tracks and goes under I-80 once more. The road becomes Crystal Park Road. Look for the park's upper parking lot on your left. I suggest taking a sharp left turn just before the upper lot to reach the lower parking lot near the picnic area, restrooms, and trailhead. This was a great experience. Bring snacks and your childhood love for dirt FYI- We had perfect reception with Verizon & AT&T the whole route
