This is a pretty nice park. I would give it 5 stars, but the walking trails are a bit lackluster. They're paved, and there are dog waste stations along them, but the scenery is boring. Just a bunch of overgrowth on the edges of the property. And they pretty much just border the park itself, so you don't really feel like you're going anywhere.

I know they have a couple playgrounds, but I didn't get a close...

There is a side for large breed and a side for smaller breed dogs. My miniature schnauzer likes to play frisbee here. There is a very large track that goes around the whole park that you can get a good walk on. The park has frisbee golf, soccer, tennis, basketball, and a playground for the kids. They have pavilions for parties that i'm pretty sure you can reserve. This is a great place to get...
