This park has two completely separated fenced areas to let your pooch run, plus it has access to a little beach on the adjacent lake, where we saw some labs having a great time in and out of the water. Our dog doesn't like to swim, but she loved the grassy areas to run, and even had fun on the little obstacle course set up in one of the areas. Don't let your dog overdo it, though, the altitude is 7500 feet and our little Border Collie was really panting after chasing the ball a few times, even though she lives in Denver most of the time.
This is the only dog park we've ever taken our dogs to and it was wonderful. There are agility structures as well the pond which our girls loved to swim. Owners of other dogs were very aware of others and cleaned up after the dogs.
It was great for Gracie our basset who loves to socialize doggie style with lots of running and barking and meeting other dogs.
OK, Estes Park Dog Park doesn't get any better - you are staring at The Rocky Mountains all around you, Lake Estes Nearby and many times - Elk right outside the fence to the dog park. There are two fenced area - both large - the first is the agility park and the other just a romp and play area with swimming during favorable months ;) Truly a dream!
I don't understand why some communities decide to build a dog park without water access? We brought our dogs to RMNP & when they needed to run we brought them to the dog park & they really enjoyed the freedom. I don't know what it is about Colorado, but my dogs were so calm there, we get home & they are all super hyper again! Anyways- the park is different than most parks I've been to. The large dog part has several large tree's that prevent you from being able to keep an eye on your dog at all times, so instead of sitting on a bench, I was following & calling my dogs the entire time just to make sure they weren't trying to escape the fencing. The views were beautiful but there wasn't a water spiker! I don't understand that! I'm giving it a 4 star review because it did meet my goal of allowing my dogs to get some energy out!
We supported a dog park in our community - our example is Estes Park. So well designed - and near the playground
Our dogs loved this place. Wonderful setting on Lake Estes with the rockies in the background. Plenty of room to run, fetch, and play. High quality agility equipment as well. If we lived here we'd be there all of the time. Can't wait to go back!
Lots of room and chances to socialize make this a dog park that has our dogs getting excited within a mile of reaching it. They have made many friends here!
We hit the dog park every time we are in town, sometimes more than once. Clean as far as dog parks go and have not encountered any problem dogs (or owners!). After the floods I donated money to the clean up efforts....I am stingy, cheap and poor so this is saying a lot! My dogs and I love this place.
We travel in our RV with our GSP. He needs to run and play after riding all day long. This park was perfect for him. Huge fenced in area with plenty of room to run. Not crowded at all when we went. Big bushes that he searched for any critters that might be hiding. He had a great time. Only drawback, there wasn't any water available inside or outside of the park. Took our own the next time we went. All in all, the dog park was to rate.
