I enjoy all of the dogs and most of the people here. It has shade, sun, water, chairs, balls and an amazing view of the water. Its a great place to play with your dog and others'. The dogs live to play with each other and like children on a playground, they solve their personality conflicts without any injuries, just... More

We go to dog runs in NYC and CA often. When we travel to a new place, it's a joy to find a new dog park and meet the other owners. It always a nice experience. Until we went here. When we arrived we were glad to see a circle of folks in chairs with their small dogs for our... More

This beach is quite rocky and rough but it is still a nice place to visit. We stopped to put our feet in and take a few pictures. It was rather quiet the day we were there More

This park has a larger dog and smaller dog area. We went there and the grass was a little long with several chairs that were filthy dirty and/or broken. Someone had a larger eskimo-type white dog in the small dog area. This large white dog may have been friendly - but he kept going to bother our small dog. Even... More

Granted I had a bad memory from this place, but that is definitely personal and had nothing to do with the place itself. The sunset was amazing on the eve of the Valentine's day. I could die there. More

Its a very nice park, as others said it has a smaller section for dogs 25lbs or less and a very large area for larger dogs to run. Shady spots with chairs, and bright areas to sunbath. There was plenty of baggies for the dogs mess and trash cans to get rid of it. We were looking to bring our... More
