    WRONG

    Poor experience. The off leash area appears to be opposite the paved disc golf trail and opposite where everyone is walking off leash! There is no shade over in what appears to be the correct pathway. When I arrived, my dog was excited (zoomies). There was a group of men playing disc golf with at least six dogs off leash. They were not welcoming / pleased we were there and stated their dog didn't like other dogs and to basically not allow my dog there. My dog didn't understand why they were allowed off and to play but he wasn't allowed near. There were numerous other dogs off leash in the same area. These guys made me feel terrible. I had to reign in my dog which made him depressed and confused since he thought this was a dog park. I wouldn't have taken him here if it was properly presented. After the guys left a woman said the disc golfers can be very rude and entitled and not to let it color our experience; however, by that time the damage was done - my dog was too depressed and confused and didn't want to walk, run, or play. Won't be back.

    Wonderful off leash area

    We stopped here on a road trip and both of my pups had a wonderful time. Although it was a hot day, there is plenty of shade, grass, and the river runs alongside with plenty of opportunities for the pups to cool off in the water. The park is clean and poop bags are provided.

    An absolute must if you’re driving along the 70

    So excited to find this incredible heavenly place. Off leash dog heaven, super nice local people, the dogs can dip in and out of the river. An absolute must if you’re traveling on the 70

    Off leash heaven

    Great unfenced, off-leash place to let the dogs stretch their legs while humans hike. Just be aware of the disc golfers and be considerate/stay out of their way. The Colorado River runs alongside if your dogs are savvy with deep and fast water; also a small pond with clean water. Just stay off of/out of the canal as per posted signs. Also be aware of biting red and black ants, which are typical in this area.
