If we still lived in the area, we definitely would have continued our membership. Absolutely worth every penny, assuming you actually bring your dog. The park is gigantic and is split up into two sides. This allows for the grass to heal on one side and not get too muddy. The park rangers do come and check for passes from time to time so if you intend on trying to sneak in for free, be wary that they actually do check. Overall, the park is very well maintained. Owners who go here are responsible and actually clean up after their dogs. We now live closer to a free park which is nice, but the size and quality of Whalon Lake is unmatched.

This park offers open space, bike trails, mowed trails, pavilions, prairie, marsh, historic relics, large and small dog park, fishing, kayaking, wildlife, deer, trees and overall pristine natural beauty. It’s a hidden gem that has different personalities each season of the year and time of the day. Hope you go enjoy this beautiful nature preserve.

It was awesome! My wife and I are up here visiting from North Carolina, and we Google to find this park. We took our small dog in and around! Other than being mad at you because of all the snow that's occurred over the last couple of weeks, it was lots of fun and there's lots of open space for him to run around!

This is a very nice dog park. I'm currently not a dog owner but I have been to plenty of dog parks in life lol. We stopped near this dog park to use the rest room near the lake on one of our famous family walks. We noticed a coyote prowling and skulking around trying to sneak into the dog park to get a closer to the dogs of course to eat one of the smaller ones. Yes there is a gated area where it looks like you and your dog are enclosed but there is plenty of tall grass for cover to hide coyotes and other predatory animals. I would say just be aware when you're out here with your pets guys pets are family and I know it would be devastating to have your dog hurt, taken or killed by a coyote looking for a meal, or for you to get hurt trying to protect your pet... JUST KEEP YOUR EYES PEELED WHILE YOU'RE HAVING FUN IN THE DOG PARK WITH YOUR FURRY...

The park itself is beautiful but beware if there are larger dogs there watch your dog closely as my poor dog got trampled by a group of larger dogs and the owners didn’t call them off as she was knocked to the ground. She’s just at cutoff for weight between the two entrances at around 35lbs so we took her to the larger dog side. It looks like a group meetup as they seemed to know each other. I would never let my dog behave that way and not apologize to the owner. We went to the smaller dog side that was empty and let her play and luckily she had a nice time to running around. I will take her to the small dog side on until she is...
