Official listing
Arrive early on weekends
Parking and shaded seating areas fill up quickly on weekends, especially when temperatures are high.
Bring your own drinking water
The available water buckets are frequently contaminated, and bringing water jugs ensures your dog stays hydrated.
Monitor water quality concerns
Some reviewers report health issues after visits and note the water uses copper sulfate treatment, which warrants caution.
Best for hot summer days
The pond and beach allow dogs to cool off quickly, making midday visits in 90+ degree weather actually enjoyable.
Plan around Tuesday closures
The park closes Tuesdays from 5:30am to noon for maintenance, so avoid scheduling visits on that day.
