This place is now turf and there are no pebbles. The area is small but great so the dogs don’t get super dirty. Dogs here are friendly and are all sizes. @misothebernedoodle_ loves it here

Fantastic dog run. Highly recommended.

We visited visited the first time, two days ago. Im giving this dog run 4 stars for its size, the demeanor/behavior of the other dogs and owners, the shadiness from the surrounding trees, and the fact there were several water bowls and a water fountain that had a high spout for quick showers of the dogs and a lower spout to fill an attached bowl.I took off one star for its dirtiness. I dont know if theres just a higher percentage of long-haired dogs here vs other turfed dog runs weve been to, or if the owners here dont regularly brush or otherwise groom their dogs, but there was an insane amount of long fur piled up on the edges (where the cement bleachers start) and all over the turf. I was there with my dog for 20 mins, and within the first couple of throws of his ball, his ball and his mouth had all kind of fur stuck to them. Every time hed come back, I was pulling fur out of his mouth. The next day, there was visible long white dog hair in his poop.Hopefully, there can be some kind of actual maintenance (not sure whos responsible. Parks Dept?), other than owners picking uo their dogs poop. I have turf in my backyard, and we actually have an outdoor vacuum made specifically for turf, so its not a complicated matter.

Definitely a definition of a dog run as it’s not a huge area, but very well maintained. Astroturf surface so easier on the paws and actually quite well shaded by the surrounding ring of trees. Often at least another pup friend there from the neighboring buildings but good idea to bring a ball just in case.

Very nicely executed dog park with everything one would need in a dog park except separate sections for small and big dogs. Makes me feel like everyone doesn’t have a job except for me LOL.

One of the better dog runs I’ve been to and in a great location. Very clean, well maintained, not right on top of traffic. Astroturf which cleans up well. Dog bowls, water hose. Friendly place and well enclosed/safe to let dogs run free. Wish there were some public restrooms on-site.

Update july 2022: they took away the rocks and laid down turf!! so much better!!my dog loves it here. shes small-ish (19 lbs) and not shy. i feel safe bringing her here since theres just one entrance with a double gate. friendly and attentive owners.P.S. dont be confused by my pic; water is already available for the dogs here. i just bring my own sometimes.

This is a pretty great little dog run! I was skeptical at first because it’s a simple circular fenced in area and the entire thing is made up of small pebbles. I’m sure for some dogs this would be a turn off. However, my dog and many other local dogs seem to love the place. My big complaint is how hot it gets mid day. If there were only more tree cover, this little spot would get five stars.

*UPDATE JULY 2022: they took away the rocks and laid down turf! And they added a retractable hose. Looks great. Havent taken my dog there yet!One of our favorite dog parks in the area. I’ll usually go mid-day and its pretty quiet. Maybe 4 other dogs. There have been moments where there are lots of small dogs and sometimes theres only big dogs. Owners are attentive. Our dog loves the park but we definitely need to bring a ball or frisbee to keep her moving. There arent any structures they can run around and not much exploring. But I think that is fine every once in a while considering its a HUGE plus she doesnt need a bath afterwards. We’ll wipe her down and wash her paws in the tub! In the winter it gets very cold. I think the buildings around create a wind tunnel so i recommend bundling up.

My dog and I love this park! It’s very well maintained and the other dogs and dog parents are always friendly.

Perfect for my medium sized dog. It’s a smaller dog park so there aren’t as many large dogs since the nearby Hillside Dog Park has a much larger space to run. There are hoses and water fountains which makes it easy to keep my dog hydrated.

Dog parks are for dogs - please stop bringing your young children to “play” with the dogs. It’s dangerous for everyone.

Quite nice! good size, a bit smelly.

My dog loves coming here! Its a great, small, neighborhood park. Its also right next to a dog training place which was nice to dip into to grab a ball to play with when I forgot to bring one

Looks like most of the complaints have addressed. Turf, a hose, seating for dog owners all the way around, dog stays clean and gets worn out. Mission accomplished.Should be a 4.77 score 😉

Love this place but wish there was a way to keep the water flowing in the winter.The hose and water bowls need to be replaced

I would disagree with the other reviews about not liking the gravel. It was discussed at great length whether it should be dirt or gravel. Gravel is easy to clean up after and not disgusting. I am so glad I dont have to give my dog a bath every time I come here. Your dog is in view at all time; making it a safe place. In general small dogs tend to be picked on because they are small as such it doesnt matter what dog park you go to.

Really small circular run with turf. No separate small/big dog areas.

Best dog run in the area for small and mid size dogs ❤️

Very nice

Review 21 (2016-01-12 - Rating: 4)
The dog park is better since they changed the gravel, but the water fountain doesnt always work and your dog is going to get dirty no matter what. Still, being right by the water is quite nice.

Smaller than I imagined. Clean though. People were nice. Dogs were good except one dog that kept harassing my dog. My dog is small so when a slew of big dogs came, we left.

One of the best in NYC. Pro tip — go during sunset

Review 24 (2016-07-06 - Rating: 4)
The park is clean and there are plenty of spots to sit in the shade on a hot day. There is also a water fountain for the pups. The only thing I dont like is that it is all gravel. It does keep it cleaner than some other parks, but my dog doesnt like it as much.

Water fountains for people and dogs are off for the winter. But well maintained, beautiful scenery nearby and private parking lot right next door

Review 26 (2019-07-16 - Rating: 5)
Friendly attentive owners, smaller park but still room to run, and shade trees and places to sit. It has pebbles instead of dirt which some doggies dont like but most are fine with. Also the BQE is nearby so if youre little guy is spooked by car noises maybe take that into consideration. Finally, it has high rises on three sides so in the fall and Winter when its windy theres kind of a wind tunnel effect where its VERY windy. Otherwise our go to dog run.

Sweet place

It is amazing! My dog has always had a great time off-leash. Although I think it is a little uncomfortable for some dogs, especially when they run. // Its a great place for dogs to play and be off leash at any time of the day. However, I think the stones are a little uncomfortable for some dogs, especially when running.
