Visited Centennial Hills Park (dog park area) and honestly had such a great experience from start to finish. First off...parking was a breeze. There's plenty of it, and it's super close to the dog park, which is always a plus when you've got excited pups ready to go. The park itself is split into a small dog area and a large dog area, and both sides were well maintained. The grass was green and mostly clean, and there were multiple shaded seating areas to relax while keeping an eye on your dog. I really appreciated the water fountains placed around specifically for the dogs, they looked clean and well kept, which isn't always the case at dog parks. There are also lots of trees, so even on warmer days, you can find shade easily. There were easily 15+ dogs there during our visit, and the overall vibe was great. Most of the dogs came over to say hello, and they all appeared healthy, well groomed, and social. No aggressive behavior at all... just the occasional male dog trying to assert dominance, but nothing escalated and owners stayed attentive and in control. That alone says a lot about the type of crowd this park attracts. Speaking of people...everyone we encountered was friendly, respectful, and responsible. It was really nice to see that every dog owner we noticed picked up after their pets. That level of consideration makes a huge difference. Beyond the dog park, the rest of the park was just as lively. The volleyball courts were packed with groups having a good time, and the fields were full of soccer teams ranging from little kids to teens. Even the restroom was well maintained, soap to wash your hands, full rolls of toilet paper, no trash or debris on the floor no floaters in the toilets. The playground was surprisingly not crowded, and it looks like it's been updated....there were no traditional slides, but instead more interactive and physical play structures like climbing ropes, stairs, and obstacle style features that make it fun in a different way. Even the parking lot experience stood out... people were patient, respectful, and courteous. One driver even pulled back into their spot after starting to back out just to let me pass, even though I had paused for them. It's little things like that that really add to the overall experience. All in all, it was an amazing day at the park. The weather was perfect, which definitely helped set the tone, but the cleanliness, friendly atmosphere, and thoughtful layout of the park really made it stand out. This is one of those places you'll want to keep coming back to. read more

This is a huge fun park in NW Las Vegas. Our young kids love the big red playground, which includes swings and a couple of slides. There's also a splash pad and a big grass field to run around in. The bathrooms are close by and maintained well. The walking trail features structures that display prehistoric animals and information about them. We really love how close it is to the Centennial Hills Library. It's a fun outing to do the library and then the park! read more

Amazing park for children,, adults and pets. We have attended an outdoor live entertainment featuring performances by local artists. Have taken our dog to walk around the well kept grounds. Walked the area that includes information on formation of alluvial plains. See sculptures of animals that lived 100 years ago. Very entertaining and educational park for all people to enjoy. read more

Honestly, when we first moved to Vegas about 20 years ago, this park was so clean, modern, and beautiful! Now, the kids playground is run down, paint is chipped away, dirty, slides were all closed down, water pad (at least right now) aren't on! The soccer fields looked good still, and the volleyball pits the same! But would I take my kids back here ever again (to play) no!! Nature happens, but the town could've maintained the kids areas! read more

It's a great place for an outdoor concert but someone need to attend to the grass with all the zillion of bugs that come flying out !! It's horrible !! You get infested with bugs while on the grass especially in the evening , it's horrible !!! We left early because of bugs and others complained as well !! read more

The kids playgrounds and splash pad needs to be repainted. The playground also needs roof or shades, it gets very hot in summer!

My husband and I were there around 8am. The weather was still nice and cool. It was I first time here and felt comfortable walking because it was very clean and felt safe to walk. Most important is the restrooms were just cleaned when we got there. It's big and has quite a few play grounds for kids. There are pickle ball courts, volleyball courts as well. They have plenty of parking spaces too. read more

After our hike at the Floyd Lamb Park at Tule Springs, the group wanted to try something different for our après hike snacks and beverages. Some in our group live in the general area and directed us to this park. It's quite large, well maintained, and with some very good amenities. There's a large area with tables and restrooms nearby. They have grills for cooking. The large number of us spread out over two or three tables and we spent a good amount of time chatting about our hike and enjoying the late fall air with greta sun shine! There are two sets of beach volleyball courts. Evidently, this is a major draw of the park because the one area had a set of bleachers for family and friends to watch a match. I'm guessing that there were at least 4 courts on each side. The Centennial Hills Park would be a great place to bring the kids to play and have a picnic. read more

DO NOT GO WHEN THE SUN GOES DOWN Great park, I loved that they closed off a slide that needed maintenance so that children couldn't hurt themselves. You really could tell the park is kept up with. Since I made the mistake of going for the first time while the sun was going down because it was so darn hot today we waited until it got cooler, I thought maybe it would've been safe since it's in a great location heres a REAL GOOD TIP ‼ DO NOT GO WHEN THE SUN GOES DOWN, a bunch of ghetto people come to the park and our car was getting broken into while my husband and I were pushing our daughter on the swings. Luckily nothing was taken as we got to our vehicle just in time. It's so sad how desperate people are and how ghetto people can be in such a nice neighborhood and how they're just willing to steal things from people who work hard for their belongs WHILE TRYING to enjoy a nice park time with my toddler and husband. read more

Nice public park to bring the kids and let them run around and play. There are multiple recreation areas for various outdoor activities. The playground has a splash pad which is absolutely clutch in the hot summer months! The city did a good job of putting up shade features so that the kids aren't just in the direct sun the entire time. The playground is large and has multiple area, so the kids can really run around and enjoy the space read more

My husband and I went to this dog park early Sunday morning .. I had my 3 small dogs (frenchies and pug ) .. Very nice dogs ... went into the dog park area and these 2 standard white poodles went straight to my dogs and started to bite them on the legs .. It got to the point were me and a sweet lady had to grab my dogs due to the poodles not stopping and the owner couldn't control the dogs ... So I left after 5 mins because the poodle owner refused to leave and told me I should just go to the small dog area .. I just walked out .. 40 mins later , I go into the same dog park with my 9months old pitbull puppy .. He runs in , playing with other sweet dogs and then those 2 white poodles came charging my dog and attacking him .. I told the owner she needs to get her dogs before they hurt my puppy or something happens .. No dogs should be allowed in the park that clearly attacks other dogs and have an owner that doesn't care ... People clearly saw it and started to walk out .. She had no control of her dogs read more

I bet this park when it was new and taken care of .. it was a 5star park . I only gave it two stars because we still had fun . But if my little two cents could give an accurate review so that someone with anxiety doesn't have a full blown attack there . So be it . IT IS SO EASY to lose your kiddos there because of how big the park is . Great for kiddos 6& up. Toddlers , not so much . They have concrete tunnels that are huge. The whole experience is to be made that you're a little bug yourself . Which is awesome , but the design has too many blind spots for me . The lil splash pad was a winner for us. Just sucks that the park was covered in trash and the shade items like the flowers and butterflies had nothing that actually provided shade . Hopefully the city or someone sees the beautiful potential this park has and corrects it . read more

Nice park. Big and perfect to get your steps. The dog park is ok. People just chat or are on their phones and don't pick up. Every single day I pick up a lot of poo. It's ridiculous. People have no manners. It's just basic park protocol. Please people pick after your pet. read more

Brought my pup to the dog park for the first time and loved this one. It wasn't too large but just big enough for him to run and play fetch without feeling like I was going to lose sight of him. Definitely will come back. Water stations were clean for the dogs as well and wasn't overly crowded when I went. read more

The dog park opened again after renovating the parking lot area for a few weeks which allowed Dolce to let loose at his favorite park and hang with his furry friends.

we go to this park once a week the park is huge we love going here and there is no weird people hanging around. that is always a scare for moms who take the kids to playground. The playground needs some TLC but we walk around. read more

Big, just North of the library, East of the Y.M.C.A. The separate playground areas divided by an amphitheater. The was advertising for a family movie this upcoming Friday... Reason to come back! The playgrounds are on the North and South sides of the Amphitheater one on the North side has a butterfly and flowers kind of theme. Some of the flowers are missing petals, some of the butterflies are missing wings. The slides look awesome. The playground to the south has a "prehistoric" theme to it. Very nice. The sidewalk leasing from amphitheater to this park gives you options which direction to go. To the left and right sidewalks to avoid the playground area. The center path takes you directly into the playground! Very nice options for kids. More picnic tables are sorely needed! Water fountains need to be cleaned. Stay on the sidewalks and paths. Weeds have overtaken some of the foliage. read more

Centennial Hills Park - Parks Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Huge and well maintained park. Also known as "The Butterfly" or "Dinosaur" park by the locals, depending on which side of the hill you plan to visit. I prefer the Dinosaur side. : ) Close to the 95 and right across the way from the library and YMCA so it's super convenient if you have little ones in preschool. It's basically play-date central. Great playground with slides, swings, and splash pad for the kiddos. Trails for the adults and plenty of room for your four legged friends too. Also a dog park at the north end of the park. It's not the best dog park I've seen but it's decent. Volleyball courts, BBQ grills with covered seating, an amphitheater and awesome views of the mountains. My kids and I really like it here. read more

Came here with my son to have a picnic worst mistake ever. I noticed the big flowers and butterflies don't have the cloth that gives shade anymore. As soon as we sat down to eat there was ants everywhere! So we got up and went to the bench and there was ants there as well. The bench is nasty it has bird poop all over, trash all over. Dog owners act like they own the place and don't follow laws and don't pick up the poop. We use to come here all the time and it's sad how ugly this park is turning. read more

I came here to play volleyball a few times and so far so good. The sand volleyball courts have pretty decent sand and there are like 5 or 7 courts. The nets are already up you just have to bring you own lines for the boundaries. As far as the park itself this place is huge. Theres a playground, a soccer/football field, a run trail/path, there is desert and grass landscaping, a pretty big dog park, and even a stage for bands or whatever shows they have there. There are dog poop bags posted throughout the area and everyone seems to be friendly from what I can tell. Also I was prety impressed by how clean this place was. My only complaint here is they should have directories posted on where everything is. I was trying to figures out where the Vball courts are and I walked around for 15 minutes because this park is so big. The BBQ pits are nice as well but I would bring cleaner just incase. read more

Dinosaur Park- This park is great for older kids. There are several slides, bridges, ladders, etc for endless fun. This is not the park for little kids though. There is an exit that lead right to steps that are perfect for a mischievous five year old to wander away on. There is a lot of spots with zero visibility for parents to watch their littles and there are multiple entrances and exits so it's impossible to watch more than one kid at a time or even one kid unless you follow them closely. That means that a lot of parents are on the equipment which means there is a lot less room for the kids to run around. It's a great park but poorly designed playground equipment. Flower park- This is better for smaller kids. There are tunnels, slides and more visible playground equipment. Most of the park is shaded and there is a splash pad in the sunny area. There is a restroom right behind the park which is convenient. The women's restroom is filled with roaches during the summer though. read more

PLEASE READ!!!! ***SCARY EXPERIENCE*** I think this is a neat park as my family and I tried it out on our way back home to CA. We did have a really scary incident, and I want locals who go to this park to be aware. I was with my baby in the park and my husband was somewhere else in the park with the other kids. All of a sudden, a teenager comes walking into the park blasting loud music for everyone to hear. The lyrics were about guns and shooting up places. The kid walked behind me and started walking through the field. He then purposely turned around, passed me again, and stood roughly 6 feet away from me. Once the lyrics mentioned shooting up the place, the kid looked up at me and gave me an evil smirk. I honestly thought for a few seconds that my baby and I were going to be shot. I had to analyze the situation and look at the kid to see if he might be carrying in his pockets or jacket. I was terrified. I decided to calmly walk out while holding the baby... completely shaking. The other family near me decided to leave too because they also felt extremely uneasy. I then had to call my husband from my phone and tell him to immediately leave and get to the car. Right as we were leaving a golf cart pulled up to the park with 4 other guys wearing ski masks. It all just felt SO wrong. I called 911 but was transferred to a non-emergency line.... I am sure it was an evil joke, but it felt wrong and I felt extremely unsafe. I felt like there was going to be a shooting at that kid's park. I cannot even believe this could be a joke in someone else's mind, so sick and so wrong. Just stay aware if you are a local as I found this situation very concerning. read more

I'm very glad that one of my favorite parks in Vegas, is actually the closest park to me. I love that it is busy, but never feels crowded because of the size and the layout. Also it is nicely kept-I see dead plants one week and the next weekend, there's new plants in the planters. The playground here is pleasant with a very cute flower and bug design. There is a aqua pad for the kids to cool off (for kids but doesnt stop me from running through it real quick on a hot day!) , the usual suspects and also some tall tube slides that I havent seen in other parks. There are pavilions scattered about so if you want some privacy to your gathering there are a few lone, out of the ways one as well as pavilions close to the crowd/playground. There are wide jogging trails, also two soccer fields, quite a few sand volleyball courts and open fields that you can just run around and play. There is a amphitheater where the park holds different shows and movies throughout the year. My favorite feature of course is the dog park! There is decent space in each run (one for big dogs and the other for small dogs/seniors) and is all grass. The grass stays green all year and it's inevitable to have poop, but it seems they clean up pretty often. There is a good mix of people and dog breeds who come here, but people are responsible so there hasn't been any issues here with fights or attacks. We've made some friends with the "regulars" and I admittedly am I liiiittttlle biased that there's a large number of pug owners here. It's close to some other favorite public features that are not to be skipped. Hell, you head to the YMCA and ride on some slides at their pool and then go to the library grab a good book or CD and enjoy it under a tree at the park and have a picnic lunch! Sounds like a great day in the Northwest to me. read more

This dog park was better than what I expected. The park is actually divided into 2 areas. Large and small. Parking: The parking lot is close, clean and free of debree with some spaces under an awning providing shade for the cars. Play area: The play area has real grass, 4 trees, and a safe perimeter fence to keep our dogs safe from running towards cars and/or large dogs. The park is maintained neat and clean. Hours are clearly posted on the signage. The park does offer poop bags to pick up after our pets and trash bins are readily available. Benches are found around both areas while some do have shade. Hydration: The park has 2 water fountains for both human and pets. I just wouldn't recommend you drink from it as their are lots of flies in and around the parks waste baskets. read more

Centennial Hills Park - Completely enclosed dog park area. Separated large from small dog area too! - Parks Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Hey Las Vegas Yelpers! Thanks for all the great reviews. I made a trek out to this park today in search of a dog park near me... this may be the closest dog park in my area... 8 miles :o/ but worth the drive. Right now part of the route from my apartment to the park (near the park) the roads are closed so it took a while to get there... but I was determine to get there :) It was my first time bringing Ebi to a dog park. She's a 4 month 3-4lb teacup yorkie. I took her in the 25lb and under gated area and she was the smallest dog there this afternoon. After an hour of letting her roam around smelling the other dogs I drove to the other end of the park and took her for a walk on the sidewalk. This park is alive! There was girls soccer going on and kids playing in the water park... and tons of dogs in the dog park. Parking wasn't a problem this afternoon. I'll def come back... atleast once a week so my puppy can socialize :D Note to dog owners: please pick up after your child... I seen dog poop in the dog park :(( 5 tail wags from Ebi! -Miss Yelp 2011 read more

Such a great park. There are 2 sides. 1 side filled with lots of colors, butterflies, and flowers for the smaller kids, then you have the other side which is designed with more challenges for the bigger kids. There is an amphitheater, soccer fields, trails, and even metal constructed dinosaur statues with information about them. Lots of parking. And restrooms. Plus 4 legged fur babies are welcome. read more

Dog Park review-- It's not bad but it's not amazing. 2 separate spaces for large and small dogs. The small dog area always seems to be damp, muddy, full of pot holes and puddles. I've come here both in the morning and in the evening and it has been like that both times. There is some litter strewn around the perimeter of the park. I recommend coming early morning (7am) as that seems to be when the park is most populated. I have come around 8 am and 5pm.. these times are usually sparse with dogs. My little pup enjoyed playing by himself for a bit. It's a good place for someone who lives close by and wants to get their dogs to expend a little energy but personally if I have some extra time I don't mind driving a little further for a better experience. read more

Las Vegas has a lot of parks throughout the city. This park is near where I live in NW Vegas. Sometimes it is referred to as the Butterfly park. There are two park areas, one near the Library and one near the Fire Department. The park near the Fire Department has water pads and multiple slide areas. There is also swings and rock climbing area. There is a large field for soccer and a dog park as well. On the other side near the Library, is a smaller park, amphitheater, and a dinosaur walk-through area. There is public parking on both sides and very easy to get to. One of my big complaints about this park is it is very dirty. I come here often with my daughter and typically trash is overflowing from the garbages. Debris is left around the park. Bathrooms are relatively dirty as well. Otherwise, this park has a lot for children to do! read more

We came here for a basketball tournament for my daughter and used the gym facility. The facility is modern and I liked that there is a public library across the way from the gym that is opened 7 days a week. The library itself is family friendly with clean restrooms. read more
