From the reviews

…There is a track to walk around here (some portions are dirt - fyi). Huge space, always some dogs to play and bigger than that, it is one of the friendliest places around. Most people will say hello, chat if you want.

★★★★★ — Richard, Jun 2024

Great group of pups and people. I like how there's a trail track to walk laps around as well as a pit for the dogs to run. Theres a seperate spot for small dogs but it seems like everyone played in one area.

★★★★☆ — Simone, May 2018

…This is like a little race track and some field area that dips down to the center. Our dogs are very happy when they go here.
