Haha. There is a separate area for dogs to exercise without running out in front of a vehicle or anything and getting hurt. I'd bet it'd be ok to take your pup around on the trail as your walk so long as your a responsible pet owner and cleans up after it should an accident be made. There are a few grills for use, and a gazebo in the event one of Arizona finest sunny, instantly pouring rain, then back to sunshine all within a short amount of time type of day. Plus there is actual restrooms on site and not just port-a-potties. There is a park keeper whom does a great job at keeping out park in great shape. He puts out the American Flags, and POW flags all along the parks edge during the days we are to be in remembrance of our fallen etc. There's a Basketball court available as well, or so there used to be. It wasn't used very much that I'm aware of so it might just be an empty area. So please use the park as it's meant to be and that way we'll all get to benefit from it for many years to come.

This stunning lake is just outside of Prescott. The scenery is spectacular, with amazing rock…read moreformations around and in the lake. There are several hiking trails around it. There is some boating/kayaking allowed. Boat ramps, some playground equipment, picnic tables. It costs to get in, but you can buy an annual pass which gets you into other parks in the area. We love coming here when we're in the area.

It seems like this lake is a good place for activities like kayaking or paddle boarding. However,…read moremy plan was to hike a loop around the lake. I have been hiking for 40 years in Arizona, and this was one of my worst experiences. The map they give you at the pay station is worthless, and the maps posted along the trail were also worthless, because they didn't have an "X" to indicate where you were. I ended up getting lost and hiking almost 3 miles farther than I had intended. Yes, that is partly on me for not doing more research before I drove up from Phoenix, but some comments I read online said there is a good loop hike around the lake, and that is definitely not true. Just do an out-and-back hike along the east side of the lake and you will be OK.

The renovations are fabulous. However, many, many people do not follow the rules. I consistently…read morewatch dogs go potty and the owners not picking it up. Many small dogs are in large dog areas;oblivious to all the deaths by a shake or two. People with little kids, new born infants, and working on computers...are in denial of the safety of others. Last time there, smaller dogs fought over squeeky toys and pet treats. I like the park and dogs playing together. Perhaps random officials going there may be one way to encourage folks.

This park would be 5 stars if it were updated and if some owners actually watched their dogs. The…read morepark is large with separation for large and small dogs. Artificial turf and decomposed granite surfaces. The turf needs replacing. Plenty of seating for people but many folks sit in a circle to visit, which is nice, but it means they aren't watching their dogs so they aren't picking up the poop. A few dog regulars are somewhat aggressive so shouldn't be there at all. Sadly, a dog was injured yesterday after being attacked by a larger dog. It happens because they are dogs but reactive dogs should not be at a dog park. For the most part, the people and dogs are friendly and have fun.

There is a nice turf area with benches. There is water and dog bags. There are also paths around the dog area where you can walk but on leash.

It is so nice…read more They have nice ponds, a little veterans memorial, huge playground, and a cool little splash pad! We've had some bad experiences with wasp infested splash pads lately but this one was not bad at all, I think I saw one flying around.

Would definitely recommend and will come back again,

Anthem Community Park is honestly a beautiful, well-maintained park. The ambience is great, it's…read moreclean, and there's a huge variety of equipment and sports areas. I'd give the cleanliness and overall park quality a 10/10. There's something for all ages, and it's easy to spend a whole afternoon there. The train is definitely cute and fun for kids, but it's a bit overpriced at $5 per ticket, even for a one-year-old. Unfortunately, our experience with the train staff really took away from it. The woman taking tickets was extremely rude and didn't speak to us at all -- no hello, no eye contact, no thank you, nothing. It honestly felt like she didn't want to be there or interact with families. I was trying to make it a fun moment for my child by having them hand over the ticket, but they actually got scared and hid behind me. The woman selling the tickets, on the other hand, was very kind and welcoming. The park itself can also get very crowded, and we noticed older kids sometimes take over the younger kids' play areas, which can make it hard for little ones when there's roughhousing or inappropriate language. That's not really the park's fault, but it's something to be aware of if you have small children. Overall, it's definitely worth visiting at least once because it's a beautiful space with tons to do. I personally prefer smaller neighborhood parks for a calmer experience, but Anthem Community Park is great in terms of facilities. The biggest areas for improvement would be crowd management in the play areas and better, more family-friendly staffing for the train.

Awesome Father's Day at Tonto Bridge! Got there at 9am when the gate opens and even when we left…read morearound 11:30am on a Sunday there were plenty of parking spots still available in each parking lot. My husband had my 17 mo in a baby carrier and we did the whole loop. We spent a little over 2 hours here. Some parts were super slippery even without water present, esp more towards the bridge, but wear hiking boots and be sure of your footings and you're going to be just fine! Take your time. Stop every now and then and just look up. It's beautiful all the rocks and mountain cliffs. It's beautiful the whole loop trail. Under the bridge the breeze and spray from the water coming down is a treat after being sweating. We saw plenty of young children take on the rocky trails. If you can physically, do the entire big loop. It's worth it.

We got there at 9:30 and the parking lot was almost empty. By the time we left, it was hopping. So from our perspective, the best time to go is early. Of the four viewing points, number one is best for the view of the bridge and number four is best for a view of the waterfall. The park and paths are well-maintained and the person in the gift shop that took our money was incredibly helpful and cheerful. We highly recommend this park.
