Best park in the area for trained dogs
Timber Creek Dog ParkWe have a very social dog that also loves to swim but is good about keeping us in sight, so this park is amazing for him. We have tried other parks in the area, but they seem so sad compared to Timber Creek. It is not well marked, so I wanted to give some good instructions for people new to the park. If you go up the trail to the right of the parking lot, you will come to a drink station. To the left is a small fenced in area for small dogs (though most come into the larger area anyway if they feel comfortable). To the right is the 9acre fenced in area. It is wooded and the sandy trails are sometimes muddy, so be prepared. There are many exits to wooded trails, v and your are expected to have your dog on leash. Many don't, which doesn't bother me because I assume they have well trained dogs, but it could be problematic for some, so just be considerate. The pond area is supposed to be an on leash area, and it has a few trails leading off it, but it does feel like its own area, so I feel comfortable letting my dog off leash to swim - there are enough trees to "fence" the area in. To get to the pond area, come into the larger fenced in area, walk around to the right until you get to the first gate exit and follow that trail straight until you are in an area with a bunch of trash cans. There is a trail off to the right that is significantly steeper than the others and that will lead you to the pond area. Our dog enjoys dunking his head under water and often drinks it - he has been recently tested as parasite free, so I guess it's okay? We still usually try and get him to not drink it and hose him off when we get home regardless. Hope this helps people that are confused with there not being any signs. We love it here :) <3
