I just started taking my pup here and she absolutely loves this place. It's only $20 a year for a…read moremembership if you are Maplewood or Richmond Heights resident ($50 for non residents). 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.

I love this dog park. It's a great place to take my pup to get him some exercise and its within…read morewalking distance of my home. 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

Love our dog park! We have been coming the 2016-2017 season…read more Things I love the most: because of the membership, I feel that most owners are more accountable for their dogs; owners are really friendly; always trying to improve the park; our dogs LOVE coming here. 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

Nice spot to kick back with the pooch for a couple hours and get some running in. Always looking…read morefor a new spot to hang this seems to work. Will be back.

It's REALLY LOUD. Sits directly bordering a I-55, and the hum of the traffic is really not awesome…read more If you are trying to have a conversation with someone, it can be like shouting over noise in a bar, that type of thing. 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.

It is a small gated dog park in the Compton Water Tower Park. People in the neighborhood rarely use…read moreit, but if you have dogs that need to run around off-leash without fearing other dogs to bother your dog, this is your place! It is well-maintained by the park staff. I come to this park quite a lot, and I highly recommend this place for your fur babies!

They have a so many different things you can play on, including a manmade creek with motion activated water sprayers. This park was exceptionally clean and put together. It was a very fun afternoon watching my kiddo have some fun on something never experience before!!! Only downside, is parking. Not a whole lot of parking. Couldn't recommend more. 100% recommendation.

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!

Tower Grove Park is a very special place in St. Louis with many amenities. First of all, there are…read morelots of sidewalks that allow you to walk all around the part. Parking is free along the streets, as marked. There are pavillions that can be rented. There is a regular Farmer's Market, as well as fairs/festivals that take place here throughout the year. There is a fountain where lots of people take photos and a glass enclosed building that is popular for wedding receptions. You will find kickball/softball fields, a playground, and much more. I do recommend you cross streets with caution (don't be staring at your phone!). People often drive fast through the park and you could get hit by a car if you aren't paying attention. Also, keep your dogs leashed.

It's all along a single road one-way that requires parallel parking. I only participated in the market, but I did see tennis courts and playgrounds. A Botanical Gardens is nearby that's highly regarded. On Saturdays they have music and food by the fountain. Absolutely a Saint Louis gem and can't wait to return soon.
