Occasionally and I mean rarely a situation arises where the dogs are misbehaving or the owners are being less than publicly pleasant. You will need to be the judge of that circumstance for your tolerance level. The City parks department does a fantastic job managing and maintaining the facilities which adds to the comfort of having a clean, secure place to take Fido or FeeFee out for some exercise. Overall it is a wonderful place to enjoy time with your furry family friends and meet new bipedal comrades to converse with.

This is the first city that we've been to were you to pay for a dog park. Honestly it's pretty clean, not a lot of trash or poop around but not much dogs either. I thought going on a Saturday afternoon would be perfect but there's no one here. But Nova is happy just getting to run around and get her wiggles out.

Set back in an industrial area past the Aldi. Access the dog park through the St. John Church. The…read morefar end of the parking lot is closest to the dog park entrance. There are double gates so that no dog escapes by mistake. There is a separate section for little dogs. In each area, there are several benches for humans. There is one trashcan at the entrance, but bring your own poop bags. There is also a bucket of toys/balls/frisbees to use while in the park. If you happen to throw a ball over the fence, there is a back gate so you don't have a walk all the way around. If someone from the church sees that you are parked near the dog park, they might come over to chat and make sure everything is going well. She'll also invite you to join their Facebook page. Very friendly and welcoming group!

You need proof of rabies vaccination to get the dog tag and gate code from city hall. They also request a picture. There is a pool that you can drain out (the old water goes into the creek behind the park) and refill with clean water if you wish. It's shallow enough for most dogs to wade in. You'll often see dogs just laying in the water on warm days. My puppy just discovered the miracle that is water, and loves splashing around in the pool. Since I didn't think she would go in the water the first time at the park, I wasn't prepared and didn't bring a towel. Now I always keep one in my car! There are some strict rules for the park: no dog food/treats, no leashes, no digging, etc. All of which keeps this place well kept and pristine. There are always toys around so I stopped bringing my own.

It's an awesome little community where dog and owner get to make friends. My dog loves running around and getting the "pack" feel. It's never too crowded which is nice and I love the amenities like the pool, benches, water bowls, and toys that are free for anyone to use. I also like the membership idea because it makes me feel like my dog is safe. Every single dog there is up to date on shots because that's one of the rules. Highly recommend

Please beware that smaller dogs may be able to fit under the fence or even through the fence bars. My 20 lb dog was able to get through the fence bars without much effort. Thankfully I was able to recall her. Also the dog water fountains in the park never seem to work when I am there so remember to bring water for your pup

We are so thankful that this park exists. I think everyone knows that it is now a dog park and we…read moreDEFINITELY utilize this since St. Louis does not have many great places to take our pups. This park offers gated greenery and tons of running and playing space for the local pups and it is so much fun even to go as humans. If you are looking for somewhere to take your dogs and have not been here, you need to come! Pro tip: 95% of dogs are NOT on leashes and WILL approach your dog. If your dog will not be comfortable with this or is not friendly, this may not be the place for you. We started our dog on a leash and slowly worked our way up to letting him off and he enjoys this place now so much!

Things I would change: Park is closed from late March-June. My pups are sad when they don't have a place to run, especially when it's the nicest part of the year; I feel guilty that I'm not able to be a volunteer (I work on weekends) since they ask for a lot of help from members; people who have come since it opened can be a bit cliquey, however I have met a lot of new members like me. Overall a great dog park

The other part is, it is sparsely attended. If your objective is for your dog to play with other dogs, this is not the place. On the positive side, it is very large and it does have some very nice features like a small dog section that is quite sizable. I would say if you can stand the noise and just want a place for your dog to run, it's five stars.

This is a nice park in the heart of Chesterfield. However, despite being in the heart of…read moreChesterfield (close to the interstate, the amphitheater and library), it was very quiet and hardly anyone was there. We came to see the Sculpture "The Awakening" which is a massive sculpture of a giant who is struggling to get out of the ground. It's not a single sculpture but five separate sculptures that make up "The Awakening". Great park to visit - not only for the sculpture but for some peace and quiet.

My husband and I came here when we came to St. Louis last week initially because I wanted to see…read more"The Awakening" sculpture, but overall, we loved it for many other reasons, as well! When we first got here, we noticed the park is in a pretty secluded area, and not many people were around unless they were going to the library that is connected to the parking lot. There are so many different parts of this park, including "The Awakening" sculpture, an amphitheater, a walking trail with a waterfront, and a Veterans memorial. The park was very clean, and we loved everything we experienced. The sculpture was so cool and is basically a steel man broken up into different separated body parts, who looks like he is trying to free himself from the ground. It's unbelievable how big this is in person, and we loved it. The Veterans Memorial was gorgeous and included significant quotes, a fountain, and American flags with every branch of the military included. The waterfront and trails were gorgeous, and we saw many HUGE ducks, cardinals, and wildlife. We loved the isolated walking trail because it had such beautiful views. Homes are being built around there, too, and the water would be such a gorgeous view to have every day from a home window. We weren't able to go to the amphitheater because they were getting ready for a summer night free concert event, but when we left, many people were gathering to go to the event. You can bring your own beer as long as it's in a can, so that's awesome and unlike many other public areas! Overall, if I lived in St. Louis, I could see myself regularly coming to this park and the surrounding area often. It's definitely a tranquil place where you can be one with nature and enjoy the views and entertainment.
