Both sides have water available for the dogs and a number of different obstacles for them to run around on off-leash and areas to drink, but also some random puddles. Owners have to keep an eye on their dogs, so even if they are social sometimes they can fight. Almost all the dogs I've met here have been pretty nice though. Lot of bugs at the edges, though, especially in the muddy areas, and I killed a tick I saw, too, so you have to be careful. Parking can get quite busy at peak times.

The large pen is mostly pebbles, which I'm not a huge fan of, and the smaller pen is mostly grass and dirt. There's no official big dog / small dog distinction, though it could be used that way. The fountain hasn't worked since I've been there, so bring some water for your dog. Overall, it's quite nice. The view by the water is pretty, and you can take your dog for a walk on the boardwalk after the park. Drawbacks are that it's often empty and not everyone seems to pick up after their dogs.

We brought a bottle of water for Ham, but it would be nice if they had water fountains here like they do at the other doggy parks. One thing I did notice this time though: the fence. Along one side of the fence, the bottom of the bars stick out and face in towards the dog run area. Just eye level for my little guy. It makes me nervous when the dogs are playing and run along it. I don't think they'd intentionally run right into it, but accidents happen. All fun and games, till someone loses an eye!

One of the better, if not the best dog run/park in North New Jersey I have found so far…read more Things it has going for it: - Synthetic turf - Not a lot of wear and tear - Clean - Adequate seating for humans - Safe area/park - View of Hudson River Things it has against it: - No bathrooms for humans near run - No water - No shade - Can get windy - No separate large and small dog runs - Access for Shipyard residents only Have been on a dog run/park tour and this is in my opinion one of the best dog runs in Northern New Jersey I have found so far.This is more like a 3.5 star run. Access is for Shipyard residents only...there is not a key fob system to get in and nobody asks what your doing there. This run is definately a plus for the residents but may not be worth the trip since parking is a pain. Add water and a separate dog run for small dogs and this is a solid 4 star run. Add some shade and this could be a 5 star run. Dog runs/parks I have been to so far: http://www.yelp.com/list/nyc-area-dog-parks-runs-queens-4

It feels more like a city park than a quiet garden. I personally would not return, though I see why neighbors enjoy having green space nearby. When I visited, a large group had formed a circle that occupied an entire section of the small rose garden. There were no signs indicating the area was reserved, and their gathering unintentionally made the space feel closed off to other visitors. In shared public spaces like this, especially in smaller gardens, it is important for any group, whether local or new to the community, to be mindful of the park's norms and not treat the small public garden like it's only for them. Many people visiting or living here may not be aware of how these spaces are typically used, so a little consideration goes a long way in keeping the park welcoming for everyone.

I grew up with Brookdale Park. I would bike over with Daddy - or in the beginning, trike over - and…read morewe would ride the paths together. Down the little dirt trail by the stream near Watchung Ave., see if I could make it down the ditch under the bridge, then back up near the duck pond to look at the birds. Over to the playground, down the tall metal slide (burning in the hot sun), on and under the wooden playground (splinters and the occasional scary bee), and riding the swings, both pony-themed and regular. Slow forward to 2025. Brookdale still has the same paved paths. The old dirt trail gradually became a bunch of bumps for dirt bikes instead of my regular bike. The duck pond was filled in years ago but is now a wetlands area. The playground has been modernized a couple of times and is now modern, safe plastic. Still pony-themed swings. The old gravel track is now modern plastic for running or similar sports - though there was something special about sliding my bike around the turns on that gravel track. You just can't ride on a running track. There's an annual softball tournament there we still play, and the fields really haven't changed, though I've heard it's been getting tougher to get things reserved properly. So it's still a wonderful park, but without the ducks and with the complications to holding in park events, the fifth star has gone away with my childhood. That's OK. It will always be 5 stars in my heart.
