River Road Dog Park — Attraction in Elberta

This was the perfect spot to take our dogs while we were on vacation. We were staying close by and there's not really a lot of dog friendly beaches. We had 3 small dogs-all under 20lbs so we didn't need a lot of space. This park is really small but was perfect for us. There's 2 sections. 1 for bigger dogs and 1 for smaller. There's a couple things for larger dogs to play on and with. There's a coveted gazebo in the larger dog area. The small dog area is just a small fenced in grassy spot. You can walk through to the back and There's the beach. It's fenced in and on the sides so dogs can't get out-unless they can swim I guess. Ours didn't much want to get in the water so it was fine for us. There was a ball to throw and chairs to sit in. We saw some jellyfish washed up so be careful. There were dolphins swimming nearby. The water is calm. Great...

Some chairs provided both in the covered seating (plus a picnic table) and some beach chairs down by the water. Waste baggies and bowls also provided but bring your own water for your...

My 42 pound dog wanted to get to the empty lot next door since this park was too small for her. She figured out that she could swim around the fencing and off she went, running through the field, yards, and then across the street. Thinking this was a fun game, she eventually ran through the open gate of the large condo complex next door where somebody helped catch her. I cannot recommend this park to anyone but the owners the smallest dog breeds and, until a better water barrier is placed between the park and the empty lot next door, I sadly can't recommend it if your dog likes to swim. They can escape that way...
