- JamesJun 7, 2024Good place to stop
It's a good place to stop. The visitor center is staffed with friendly folks and the the dog park gets the job done. It's not too far off the road and near other pit stop needs. It could use some more trees for some shade :)
- LaurenMar 17, 2024Great spot to stop!
We saw billboards for this dog run on our trip from NY to FL. It was a great place to stop and let our puppy run about for a bit. There were two runs, one for small dogs, one for large. And there were balls in the runs for the dogs to play with, as well as a water fountain for a quick drink. The restrooms at the visitor center were very clean. And our dog enjoyed a Milkbone, collapsible water bowl and ball—all free!
- MelindaApr 6, 2023Perfect stop for dogs & humans
- Extremely convenient location
- Clean grass and cement areas
- Free water bowl, treats & tennis balls
- Beautiful plants inside the building. Be sure to say Hi to Donna
- An abundance of stores, gas & restaurants in the area - OliviaJul 27, 2022Perfect Spot to Stretch all 4 legs!
Located at the visitor center, but signage getting to the location itself was not very clear and needed to assist the help of Google Maps. Not a very large area but just enough and much better than on a leash at a gas station for our little one. Visitor Center is also very clean and had dog treats available!
- PaigeFeb 19, 2022The perfect spot!
Dog owners must stop here while traveling on 95! Right off the highway, clean, and plenty of space to burn off some pent up energy.
- ChristinaDec 1, 2021Small but clean
Two separate, but very small areas for dogs to run (only reason for not getting 5 bones). Clean run with fresh water available. The visitor center has dog treats, balls, and collapsible water bowls for the pups (free). Check it out!
- AmyNov 28, 2021Great
we were traveling back to New England from Georgia. we saw signs on 95 for the park. it was time for a break anyway, The park is less than a mile from the exit. While the road seemed busy, the dog run is secure and fenced in. my dog who is sometimes shy with new friends ran and played with the other dogs. Owners were friendly also. we were able to pick up lunch and eat at the picnic tables there. Great stop for everyone.
- CarolNov 15, 2021Fantastic Stop when traveling with pups
This rest stop is absolutely fantastic Great area to let your dogs run! they also have treats and toys for your furry friend inside the building! Staff is super friendly! Close to many restaurants and gas stations.
- AmandaSep 11, 2021Great park
Nice, clean dog park. Stopped here while staying in a local hotel and walked here with my pups.
- JacquelynSep 19, 2020Clean Little Spot
Two runs for pups, although not marked large and small. A bench and several Adirondack chairs for the humans. At the entrance is a water fountain and dish. Great little stop off I-95 for dogs and humans to stretch their legs. We stopped on a Saturday when the visitor’s center was closed, but you could still use the park.
- BarbFeb 27, 2020Perfect!
Sweet, little
Spot. Lovely ladies at the visitor center!! - TiffermuttJan 9, 2020open to everyone & travelers
Super Clean & great place to stop for a pup break! Large & small play area. Bathroom near by in visitor center. Limited seating for pet parents but we want to stretch too anyway! Its open & sunny, no shade. Supplies waste bags & plenty of water. I posted a few pics below
- DawnJan 2, 2020Convenient and Clean
I use this park to stretch my schnoodle’s legs every time I travel down the East Coast. Not huge areas but they are clean, fenced in, and conveniently located one road back from a main road.
Located a the Visitors center. It is across from the Walmart and plenty of gas and restaurants nearby.
- HannahJun 8, 2019Super Convenient

- JulieMore than a year agoAtmosphere is Great
Such a neat little place to let your pup run it out. Small and Big dog runs. They allow you to bring your pup inside with you as well as they have treats and a tennis ball for your pup.
- MelissaMore than a year agoIt’s ok
We have a lab who needs to run, this place is small and it’s across the parking lot from Walmart. It is conveniently off I95 and it’s good for small dogs.
