Montiel Park — Attraction in San Marcos

Montiel Dog Park-

Accessibility: first of all I like this park because they have a Porta potty that is a large one, big enough for wheelchairs, and it has a hand rail next to the toilet for you to grab onto if you need. Many dog parks don't have large bathrooms like this so it was great! It also has handicap parking (only two spots though), flat ground to get up to the park and dog park, and there is some paved ground right when you get inside the dog park gates, with two cement tables with built-in cement chairs connected.

Likes: as mentioned above, I love the accessibility of this dog park and I do love that there are trees with shade for dogs and owners to rest under.

Experience and dislikes: I came here at 7PM on a regular Tuesday and the parking lot (it is a small lot) was almost completely full. There were some cars parked on the side of the road outside the parking lot also. The park had LOTS of people and even more dogs. I did not like that there were so many people without masks on, sitting on the tables close to each other so I wore a mask in here. I also did not like how this dog park has no separation between different size dogs...big dogs and small dogs are all in this one park together and there were many times today where bigger dogs were going after smaller ones in an aggressive mannor. Actually one time today, a large dog was attacking a slightly smaller dog and a woman had to run over and yell at plus hit the big dog with her hand to get off the slightly smaller dog. It was a bit unnerving so I left after that with...

Great little dog park! Montiel Dog Park has plenty of parking and is fenced properly. Park is kept clean and well stocked with bags. I’ve had good experiences with the owners at this park and for the most part everyone has been very responsible.

The park has a ground level water fountain that is easily accessible. There is also a porta-potty for us humans, although I can’t speak to how clean it is as I haven’t dared to enter.

Hours are 7am to 9pm except for Wednesday which is 9am to 9pm. They don’t lock the gates though and occasionally I’ll show up earlier than opening time and has never been a problem.

All around a great little dog park that...

Dog park: Brought my boys here later in the day and they loved it. It can get a bit crowded during the day, especially on weekends. Plenty of room to run around and has shade trees and a covered sitting area for the "pawrents".

Disc Golf: Spacious and can be a little hike toward the back holes. I've witnessed many players misplacing discs in the brush or trees. I haven't actually played but it's a decent sized course. I sometimes take my doggos for a walk on the pathways when the dog park is too busy.

The park has beautiful shrubbery and trees. There's a few benches throughout to sit and take...
