Beaullieu Park Dog Park — Attraction in Lafayette

Go for walks here often. Lovely park with fabulous maintinence workers! Did you know that the bathrooms here are super clean or that the staff folds the toilet paper like they do in hotels?

Ample water, hoses, some plastic swimming tubs, dishes etc. HOWEVER I arrived after a rain and you could not get anywhere without wading through water and mud. So some definite drainage issues. That's all I...

Nice park in a quiet location where you can let your dog off leash and get to run around and the like. Unfortunately, easily ruined by others as no real rule enforcement on property. Today we went and stayed all of 5 minutes due to a gentleman's dog repeatedly trying to mount ours. His owner sat a few 100 feet away, oblivious to anything but his book. Still giving a four star, its really not their fault. With that being said, I'd be willing to pay a small fee if it meant them getting...
