Haven't had a bad experience here with bad owners (you know what I mean), but some don't obey the leash areas, but again, haven't seen a bad owner or pup here, and we go a lot. That's my take on the general good times. The things that need some work or are just the way it is here are picking up after your fur baby. Nobody needs poop on a trail. And the parking is what it is, if you don't get there before 8 am on a weekend, you may not get a parking spot, as this place is busy. But there's so much space, once you're in, it never seems too overwhelming. Pics may be not part of the official park, but you get the idea. Wow!

We could go hiking for hours, come home, throw the ball for a while, and he would still be wound up and ready to go! To him it was just a warm up! I came in not knowing how Lukas would react to the pool but as it turned out he had a blast! Shortly after we arrived that it was evident that he was going to enjoy himself after jumping into the pool on his own accord. Gary made the experience super fun and did a great job working with him to tire him out but also allowing him adequate time to rest and catch his breath. I wasn't sure if it was going to be enough to tire him out, but I was wrong! Tonight after our swimming session, I've been able to enjoy the most peaceful evening I've had in a very long time! Thank you so much Gary for such a fun experience!

There's a big, open grassy area, picnic tables, benches, and lots of shady trees. The park itself wasn't very crowded. There were a couple people walking their dogs. Yes, dogs are allowed!

In fact if you are really lucky while you are slipping and you grab at random things you may even grab a plant with thorns on it. Yay you! Skidmore seems like a park you have to walk to from the neighborhood that it is surrounded by. There is a small, round circle that appears to be a small parking lot but going off of the signs all over there it apparently isn't a place to park. It's more of a cul de sac. Overall I wasn't too impressed with the park but that view is great and if you want a good, panoramic view then Skidmore is the place to go.

I take suggestions from my dog park friends and got tables put in and a mud puddle that needed taken care of and got that taken care of and grass on tube and new sign and water and pools in summer. So I advocate for the dog park to make it a great place for dogs, and people been going to Hazelia dog park for a long time. My dog Lola has a great time playing fetch with her ball. I've picked up poo bags people left threw them away and pick up all the balls and put them back in bucket and fill water bowls for the dogs. Winter now I bring a pool for my dog Lola because she runs and gets hot with all her hair but I rinse out pool and take pool home with me everytime I leave the park since I purchased the pools from ace hardware. The only things that bug me about this park are the H.S students parking in round about by small dog park and they are fully capable able bodied students to walk to other parking lot but I have walking challenges yes there's handi cap but its a distance to walk. Why have a high school where students can't park there. The balls end up in pine tree and I have to fight with tree. I lost one of my balls in the pine tree it eats balls. Plus when the balls go over fence and then can't get them I physically cannot get over fence. People leaving poo bags on ground or on fence or on the trash can instead of throwing them away.

While in Portland we came across this park which was HUGE! The grass had probably not been mowed since last fall which made it like an adventure for the dogs. They looked like wild animals exploring the savanna. There are no bags or benches or water, but that's ok because we bring our own. I walked around the perimeter of the park and it was around 1/4 mile. There are some wet areas so make sure your doggie doesn't get muddy. The trees around the park provide enough shade for all visitors.

Trippy City of Portland dog park on the east side of Delta Park…read more I am going to call it a 3 because if this suits your needs? I can see how you might think this is really cool. With that said read the below for tips on who it does not work for. It is one big open field between two major roads with no amenities, single, spring loaded (thankfully) gates with no latches (someone did leave a bungee cord on 1 of the 3 gates). The fences are the 4 inch by 4 inch squares (not suitable for a small dog) and plenty of holes in the fences. No pickup bags, no water, but there are 1 or 2 trash cans. Parking is easy enough out front of the middle part and the end closest to I-5. There is a weird sign out front about NOT using a "beanshooter, slingshot, javelin, shotput discus, golf equipment or archery equipment" so I guess that was a problem. Not suitable for small dogs, or dogs that will not come back on command as if the dogs get out? (three gates means that much more to watch) There are major roads on either side (Hwy 99 above and Union right in front). If you have a big dog, if you can trust the big dog to not get out? By all means. Just watch out for whatever in the grass as it seems like an anything goes kinda place (trash the dogs might eat?). If you are playing at Delta Park and want a place to walk your dog? Okay, I guess. Anyway, I sure can't use it..... but, if you fall into the above category? You might love it for the sheer size of this place. One person was using it as we left....otherwise no one was there. I am uploading lots of photos.

This lovely bit of land has the potential to be as great as it was originally envisioned. And I…read moreimagine there was a time it was a community favorite spot for family gatherings, first dates, "that" secret retreat where you could take a breath to reset your inner peace, a trusted romping ground for your fur kids. The park's magical energy gave reason enough to grab your umbrella, Wellingtons, a friend who is willing to dance in the rain (yes, I know I'm stretching this a bit, dream with me here). Sadly, a short visit to this once bubbly land will likely leave you to go back to your favorite park and never return. I get it. It's winter and with Portland winters comes wet, muddy, and now even neglected by the city workers who's jobs are subsidized by local and state income taxes paid by hard working people from our gorgeous city. I may be new to the city, but what I do know is it rains. And it's no secret that winter brings days upon days of cold, rainy days. I personally love it! And isn't it safe to assume that this seasonal shift is no secret for the OG city folk? I'm told to expect living under dark clouds with daily rain accumulation right through spring of 2026. Again, I am new here. But doesn't it make sense to perhaps to take another look into learning what the city's resident community experts thoughts are on what seasonal characteristics determined this unfortunate decision. So like me, for example. I'm from Phoenix, AZ. Where summer temps seer to 115°- 120° with minimal breaks for weeks upon weeks. And guess what? City parks don't close up shop. They still book events for picnic spaces and other popular hidden gems. The toilets are open, clean and the park workers are eager to answer any questions you bring. And so my issue isn't with the declining state of the park. It's the blatant inconsideration for people who get outside even on the rainiest days and nights I find to be adversarial. The city has turned the parks public water source (especially convenient for your pups), closed and locked the only two toilets available to relieve the most commonly shared human function. Locking these toilets is wrong on so many levels. Doing so doesn't save the city spending budget. It doesn't keep homeless people away from the park, and it doesn't keep the park clean. Yeah. That last part. Thank you for encouraging people to make an unfair decision. Anyone reading this knows, when you gotta go, You gotta go. There is no health benefit for someone to hold it. Even leaving the park to go home is too long. Instead of promoting cleanliness and personal responsibility, you are in fact forcing people to urinate at will, anywhere. And even worse? Yes. Not all poop can be held beyond it's naturally placed emergency exit. Your decision to restrict access makes no sense. But, let's be real. This isn't to keep the budget honest. It's also not to ensure less traffic in spots where there is solid traffic. It's certainly not to use the opportunity to upgrade the facilities. It's to satisfy the early morning city park "ranger" and his personal agenda to bully anyone who wears the effects from a life of despair shown everywhere on their being. He wants to make life harder for a life that you'd think can't get worse. He is so repulsed by their presence, taking away their safety, dignity, hope and a spot to rest quietly when absolutely nobody is there. And even should someone stroll through, they don't care. The homeless folks aren't why this park has lost it's joy, it's because the people who have the powers are making decisions based on ensuring they win. How proud you must feel when you stoop to pick up your park powers and literally spew your wrongly placed toxic energy. Please reopen one of the restrooms and turn the water source back on. These park amenities belong to all the people of the city of Portland. Make your choices based on that agenda. Not your rangers. Do better!
