It's right next to the river which is great for taking my German Shepherd to fetch tennis balls out of the water. Met lots of friendly people and their dogs. It would be nice if the park had more grass. Seems to be more dirt and pebbles. Definitely has a decent amount of shade for hot summer days. Has plenty of benches and picnic tables to sit at. We stayed at the watering hole most of the visit. My boxer enjoyed laying in the pool to cool off. It's nice to have a place for my pups to get some interaction with other dogs and meet some nice people. Hopefully I'll be making this a regular visit.

The dog park is a little hidden. Enter through the east gate nearest the golf course. Make the first right toward the shady tree area. The sign says volleyball but it's not. It's a one way. It's a nice dog park though and the people are friendly.

Rock features. Sloping hills. Poop bags. Dogs and dog owners only though. Still you have street parking available. Or the dedicated Park parking lot with a short walk to the park. Not a lot of shade but that's seems to be the norm for dog parks these days. Good dedicated area for Fido to sniff butts and run around with friends.

It's also the most central of a lot of the ones I've been to, easily walkable from SOMA and Downtown, and even the Clinton Library if you're especially determined. It's nestled in the Southeastern corner of MacArthur Park, all in all a great place to walk around and enjoy a day outside, or catch a museum visit (I hear the brunch at the art museum is terrific!) and it's a nice perk for us dog owners to have a spot where we can let the furbabies run off-leash for a little while. There are some hills to get your fetch-oriented dogs extra tired, and some cool rock sculptures that dogs love to run through. It gets a few demerits that are mostly seasonal: it's the muddiest of the parks I've gone to (even more so than Burns, which was a shock) and it also has almost no shade, so if you're there on a hot day, be prepared to have no escape in this park. Still, that also makes it one of the best places to go when the weather is ideal :)

They have the best staff that truly love dogs, a chill, laid back, atmosphere, and good drinks and snacks. I'm a new dog owner and have a lot to learn. Bark Bar has helped me acclimate and gives me and my pup a fun place to socialize and get out our zoomies. The Bark Bar community is great, and special events are so fun! We come here all the time and deeply value this place. I love that the people who bring their dogs here care about their dogs, and the friends my dog makes here are the best pups in town. So comfortable and fun. Happiest place on earth. :)

This was right after a different dog who had been aggressive went after our pup who was laying under our table. You can't expect a place like this to be self governed by over served dog owners. I want to support this local business. The concept is brilliant, but the delivery is borderline dangerous. An extra star because I remember the food being good, but unless something serious changes, we will not be back and will continue to share our experience for the sake of the pups...

This park is located near the MacArthur Museum of Arkansas Military History and is home to the…read moreArkansas Korean War Veterans Memorial. It spans 36 acres and is known as Little Rock's first public park and dates back to 1892. It was renamed after WWII hero, General Douglas MacArthur, in 1942. Given its historic significance you will find a number of historic markers and memorials on the park's grounds. The park seems like they periodically maintain it, but that some areas have been lacking lately. There were areas of the park's grass that were not mowed and trash was overflowing in parts by the pond. This park is home to a very nice playground that has some realitivley new equipment that includes a saucer swing, a huge jungle gym with slides, an interactive game station, some percussion instruments, and a small jungle gym with a sway fun glider and a slide. The area has the mud free rubber surface on the ground and there are blue awnings over some of the equipment to provide shade. Of course there are benches at the playground for caregivers to sit on. The benches have shade coverings as well. It is a very nice area as I mentioned. The park has a stocked fishing pond and there were tons of people fishing while I was there. And I saw many of them actually catching fish. You will see an amphitheater and a fishing pier along the pond. The park also features a nice paved trail to run, walk, bike or hike. You can also use it to take your fur baby for a walk. Just be aware that much of the trail is in the open and has no shade. Other park amenities include a gazebo, a shelter that is available to rent, Contemplation Gardens, a restroom facility, tons of green space and a bocce court. The green space is suitable for most field activities including soccer, football, playing catch, or tossing a frisbee. This is a very nice park that is located on the outskirts of Little Rock. You could easily spend a half of a day here or more. It could use a tad bit more maintenance though. What makes this park more special is its historical background. It is rich with history. I would classify this as a destination park and highly recommend checking this place out.

This is a nice little dog park with an open playing field, a fire hydrant as well as some black rubber play tunnels in one area. Bring your own balls to throw. The other part of this bigger dog area is shady in the morning (don't know about the rest of the day) with lots of benches and chairs for humans and a good supply of doggie poop bags. There is another part of the park for small dogs. I recommend going if you're in town and need a dog park. A bonus is that the Hollywood Park is right next door. People were walking for exercise in the shade (!) and taking their dogs for walks there, too. P.S. My GPS showed the dog park on the opposite side of the street than it is actually on. The Bark Park is on the corner, next to Hollywood Park. But you enter it on Shady Grove Road, which is the cross street.
