    We love it there

    There were a lot of friendly dogs and people and easy parking but I give it a 4 because it did not have a poop bag dispenser.

    A Dog’s Happy Place

    My 1 year old enjoyed the freedom of being off leash playing fetch at the beach! So many dogs he was able to socialize with. As long as your dog responds under voice control and is friendly, this is the best place to bring them! Truly my dogs happy place and I can’t wait to bring him back.

    Excellent Dog Beach

    We go to Gooch's once a week all year long. Dog's are allowed off leash during the off season all day and during peak season before 9 am and after 5 pm. Pick up after your dog! There are usually trash cans available.

    Fun dog beach in the morning

    We brought our one-year old vizsla to play off-leash before 9am on a Saturday. There were tons of other dogs and owners doing the same. Friendly folks and happy dogs all over the beach.

    Great time!

    We were able to have our dogs off leash before 9am in the summer, and on leash after 5. So many types of dogs of all sizes and everyone had a great time. Including the humans! We will definitely be back!
