| - My favorite dog friendly activity on the weekends!
On a beautiful day, it's the best spot to take your dog and walk around the park. Lots of doggy bags stations, very clean and not too crowded that your avoiding bikers, rollerbladers and runners all the time, especially with a dog sniffing around on a leash. The lake also makes it a nice cool walk when the breeze hits the water. Also, lots of parking in various areas. I find parking close to the lake and marina is a better option with lots of available parking.
Only negatives is that each weekend there is always some big festival, marathon, charity walk, etc, so the streets and public parking is all closed off so it's tough to find a place to park. Also, there needs to be more watering stations for dogs and people out walking and running. Also bathrooms are scarce and not placed well at all for such a huge park.
While there are lots of events on the weekends, the good part is, most are dog friendly. I've done several charity dog walks here and each have been different, but really fun.
Mill Avenue is also close by and there are several great outdoor dining options for your pets and you to enjoy after a great walk at the park.
