I do like that they…read morehave two separate areas, one for large dogs and one for small dogs, so it feels a bit safer and more organized. My dog loves going there and always has a great time playing and running around. That said, there are some issues worth noting. A couple years ago, a friend of mine had a truly tragic experience when her dog was attacked and killed by another dog at this park, which is heartbreaking and something people should be aware of. Also, the grass isn't real, it's turf, and while the sprinklers run every night, there's often still a heavy dog poop odor that lingers and makes the place a little unpleasant. Overall, my pup enjoys it, but be cautious, keep an eye on your dog at all times, and know that upkeep could definitely be better.

It also felt nicely separated from the dog park, which made it more comfortable for families with young kids. The only downside was safety-related: there weren't many safety rails in certain areas, and there were several large gaps where a small child could easily slip or fall. There were also some unexpected gaps at floor level near entrances that felt a bit concerning for little ones. Make sure to keep an eye your kids here and be an arm length away since they can fall and hurt themselves pretty easily. Overall, it's a great park with a lot to offer, but adding more safety rails and closing some of those gaps would make it feel much more kid-friendly and secure.

I like to break it down into two sections: the upper and lower ends of the park which is "separated" by a small slope on the field. The upper end has a playground and during school hours, you can see kids from the Our Lady of the Snows School play during recess or doing PE activities. During the summer, you'll frequently see families and soccer games on both sides of the fields. Whenever the park is empty, you can usually find dogs and their owners enjoying the afternoon or evening. From what I learned, this park is supposed to be an on-leash park, but most of the time you'll see friendly dogs running around off leash playing catch. From our house the park is only minutes away so we take our dog here many times on the lower end to play fetch. The locals kept us aware that occasionally park officials would stop by, to which they would put their dogs back on their leashes and the park officials won't bother them. The park officials aren't too stern on the "on leash" rules but will approach you if you don't have them on when they arrive. In a nutshell this park is lovely place to meet well behaved dogs and friendly owners. You can also enjoy community volleyball games or take your kids to the playground.

Camping is available for a fee. A "beach" area along the river perfect for fishing. We have visited several times and it is always clean.

Dayton State Park is a lovely little park with a historic background surrounding silver mining in…read morethe area. There are only 10 campsites and until Covid-19 hit, you could almost always find a spot. That's no guarantee now but I suspect visitation will subside over winter with no hookups at the park. It does get quite cold here in the winter. The sites are gravel and largely level. The first half of the loop is more tent-friendly sized spaces and the latter half have a bit more room for larger rigs. They are all surrounded by majestic cottonwoods that are utterly glorious in the fall. The tree cover is great for summer shade but a challenge if you're managing a solar setup. There are some sites that are less shaded to offset that, though. There's central water, flush toilets, and trash receptacles. The dump station is open intermittently and I've yet to understand the pattern to when it is and isn't. There are two free dump stations I'm aware of in Carson City, though -- at the Maverik (at Hwy 50 and College Ave.) and the new Golden Gate (at College Ave. and Retail Dr.) The park is split by Hwy 50 with the stamp mill ruins on the west side and the campground and restrooms on the east side. There is a foot tunnel connecting the two bits but it's a bit dicey from a safety standpoint so I'd recommend strolling to the aboveground crosswalk a little down the road. Dayton State Park is a sweet little place full of potential but largely unloved and overlooked. As a former Dayton resident, I've gotten to witness the park's challenges over time. In talking with the park supervisor about it, she acknowledged Dayton has its struggles, sometimes involving crime, and that the Nevada park system is underfunded and understaffed like most public lands departments. I've not had any issues when staying there but have witnessed some questionable activity in the day use area. It seems the tide is turning as locals have begun to reclaim it in recent months and have been putting in substantial volunteer time to freshen it up and give it the love it deserves. I'm hopeful that effort will help Dayton SP become a destination instead of just a place to stop over for the night. We're looking forward to joining in after our post-full-timer lives once we get our house built nearby. A note about fires: this is a volatile wildfire area so charcoal fires and smoking outdoors are often banned much of the year. Don't count on being able to grill in any Nevada State Park during fire seasons. Have a backup plan or support some of the local business in my little town -- Js' Oldtown Bistro on Main Street is absolutely wonderful. It's my absolute favorite restaurant but since it's off the main drag (US 50), you might not notice it. And for scrumptious tamales and other Mexican fare, The Lady Tamales is right by the park. The Pizza Factory has also delivered to us in the park if you're looking for your dinner to come to you.
