Update: One of my dogs has decided he doesn’t like going under the power lines. I’ve noticed his ears feel static-y when we go near the lines so maybe that’s why he hates them. He’ll run all the way across the park and wait for me at the exit. It’s sort of put a damper on Uplands for me but my other 2 dogs still love it.
Pre-Update: I love this place! Every time I’ve brought my dogs there have always been at least 5 other dogs for them to play with, even in the rain. There were only maybe 3 puddles that I noticed so that’s great (as one of my dogs likes to play in them!!) There’s a big huge field with a path going around it, and some small to medium sized trees on one side. Even so, there isn’t that much shade in the summer. It has running water and bowls you can fill. Unfortunately it’s right under some huge power lines and you can hear the buzzing of the electricity if you are right under them… it worries me a little bit. But I still love this park! Also there is running water and...
Read moreThis was my first time at Uplands and I was not disappointed! Park is open Dawn to Dusk and there is a very large fully fenced, grassed, off leash space that is mowed and has a walking path around it's perimeter. The back gate leads to what looks like walking trails (I didn't venture out there). There is a bathroom and an outdoor tap for fresh dog water. Dog bags are also available in different locations through the park should you have forgotten one (like me). The only issue I had was the number of on leash dogs, people don't seem understand that you should never introduce an on leash dog to another dog and mixing leashed and unleashed is dangerous. My 75# dog can be reactivate when leashes are involved (hers or theirs) and people kept bringing thier dogs to meet her to socialize their dog, I had to run at times and yell to get their attention and ask them to back off. These parks are not a place to...
Read moreBest Dog Park. Lots of fun, full of friendly people, and nice dogs. Never had a problem in 2 years. The park stocks poop bags in case you forget yours. It has an ample sized paved parking lot, and a clean well lit fully functioning bathroom with sink, and is open until 10pm every night, which is great for those of us who work later. Be warned, it is a rural residential setting, and it gets very dark at night, so bring a flashlight. The park is huge, and fully fenced, and also has a completely separate fenced area for small dogs. It is equipped with multiple entry gates, and several benches scattered throughout. The park itself is flat and level, with great sight lines so you can always see your dog and others, no matter your location. It has one large level gravel path, lined with small trees, that runs around the park. Honestly, it would be a great place to go for a walk or run even if you...
