Having two dogs, we're always looking for new parks and places to walk and visit. They love going for walks and being outside and I'm so thankful we found Olympia!
Of course what I love most is the dog park. It's easily one of the biggest I've ever been to and sits to the side of the whole park. It's hilly and flat at some points so it allows your pups to run around, up and down, and not feel restrained to a smaller area. There are also few trees for shade.
The dogs are all very well-behaved. It was a mix of all breeds and they all loved seeing and sniffing each other.
The dog owners are great as well! Everyone was very respectable and friendly. Each time we visited, people were anxious to meet our dogs and pet them. You get a good sense of community here.
My only issue is the lack of garbage cans. Only one can is located on the outside of the park before the entrance. I don't know if that's on purpose so the dogs don't try to get in it, but it's a little inconvenient having to hold poop bags and other garbage you may have till you leave.
Aside from the dog park there is also a playground, basketball courts and a huge field for baseball and soccer. read more
