There are covered cans for storing water (stocked by volunteers) to give to thirsty dogs in the provided bowls. The park was created with donations from various community businesses for materials, tools (rakes and shovels), and landscaping. The community board encourages people to adopt a plant on the perimeter and water it when you go. There aren't many places nearby where dogs can run off-leash, and it's very sweet that the local community has pitched efforts together to create and maintain this cute little dog park.

Concrete picnic tables and sitting benches are available. Restroom facilities are near by. The parks department keeps them clean and presentable. A sand filled playground is equipped with concrete sea animals, walls, and a ship to climb on. The City of Morro Bay Playground Rules stipulate the play area is intended for use by children ages 2 to 5, but with concrete play structures, be very vigilant with their climbing and jumping around. Children must be supervised by an adult. Tidelands Park offers a beautiful view of the harbor and Morro Rock with a symphony of sounds by Mother Nature and her seagulls, otters, other visitors, and water movement playing in the background.

Local Eval.: This cute little neighborhood dog park is called Cayucos Dog Park & is a back part of…read moreNorma Rose Park near the Cementery. As one can see by the sign, it is supported by several local businesses. Ironically, despite all the open spaces in our area, dog parks are hard to come by, so this one sure helps out locals who want a safe place for dogs to run around a bit. It is kind of off the beaten tourist path, but on the other hand is right off Route #1....so it is ideal for locals who need it. Cayucos consists of a beach community with houses right next to one another, so there is not much room to roam. You would think that dogs could roam along the main drag or on the lovely beach, but that is not a great idea for all kinds of reasons. As in our beach community of Pismo Beach, leash laws are enforced with a passion, and rightly so....since there have been all kinds of incidents with unpredictable pets. Of course, it goes without saying that dogs [& humans] can misbehave even in a dog park, so please do not bring dogs that do not get along with others. As far as the rest of Norma Rose Park is concerned, there is really not much too it beyond some open grass & basic bathrooms. If one is looking more for a stop over for a park with a playground or more, then one has to be on the ocean side of Cayucos, where there are at least three parks.

As I drive up a lady was on a scooter with her dog pulling up . She turned and looked at me as if she did not want anyone coming to HER park. I unloaded by dog who is friendly and doesn't bark and went on leash up to the chain length fence . Her dog and all four of the other dogs came up barking up to meet my dog and my dog was just standing there well behaved meeting the Aussie and poodle the dogs were all barking at my dog. This lady who came on the scooter said your dog is encouraging all the barking ( my dog was just standing quietly) So she said to me YOUR DOG IS ENCOURAGING BARKING. ITS BEST YOU KEEP GOING. What a big B----. Her dog and the other 4 dogs were very unruly and were the aggressors. My dog has gone to obedience training and has passed canine good citizen . Apparently rude aggressive people have rude aggressive dogs.

Our daughter loved the swings and seeing all the wildlife (ducks, squirrels, seagulls). The playground looked clean and well maintained and safe for little ones to play around on.

Plenty of parking and good midway between Cayucos and Morro- but closer to Morro. Short drive in either direction.

If you prefer to stay on the trail you can easily walk miles walking the expanse off paths and spots where you can birdwatch or take a break on a bench and enjoy the view. There are BBQ pits around the large grass area where you can also bring the kiddos to play on the climbing structure. The park is always busy and active with people on bikes, rollerblades or simply out walking their pets on leash. Dogs are welcome to come enjoy the several grassy areas where they are encouraged to explore, always on leash! (Please clean up after your pet. Bags are located by bathrooms) Last, but not least, make sure you bring layers because it tends to get windy out along the coast. Cloisters park A++

Apart of the Central Coast Dog Park Alliance, this is one of nine semi-private dog parks that request a daily $1 fee or $30 annual fee. You can pay online or in person and of course, it's on the honor system. So don't be a jerk. When we arrived on a Sunday afternoon the park was lively. A few labs and golden-mixes in the big dog section and three or four smaller pups in the small dog section. We appreciate the double gated entrance to prevent any escapes and all the signage reminding folks on the rules. While we keep potty bags on hand, we noticed the several maintained stations that offered these freely. It's clear this park is well taken care of by it's patrons and volunteers. Everyone there was pleasant, kind, and very in tune with their dogs. We appreciated the level of care and consideration everyone had with their dogs and their interactions. It made a slightly nervous mom a lot more relaxed. There was plenty of shade, trees to sniff, and toys and water bowls. Basically everything you could possibly need! While we were only there for about 10 minutes we will certainly be returning. It's also very nearby to the 46-West if you're on a wine adventure with your pup and need to give them a good break.

Love this, what I would consider, dog park gem in Cambria so much and so do my dogs! If I could…read moregive it six stars I would as everything is wonderful, especially the coastal weather and location. They have small and big dog areas, and the big dog section is huge. Plenty of space for launching a dog ball as far as you can and it still says within the fence (which my little one loves)! Keep in mind there is no grass. It is all thinner pieces of bark, which is pretty standard for this area. Let's talk about the location. It is absolutely perfect. It's just a few minutes from the coast so it's super breezy and refreshing, and the weather is great every time we visit. It's also located a minute away from lots of cute shops and restaurants in Cambria! Always enjoy taking my dogs here!!

There are plenty of benches through the park (and that are actually clean/not gross), so you can sit and enough watching your dogs play. Everyone Is much nicer here than the dog park in Templeton, so I always enjoy going here. We usually go into the small dog park since all of my dogs are from 18-32 lbs and they always have an absolute blast. One of my dogs love to play catch, and the small dog park has a ton of room for her to run around. The dog park is fully bark so there is not any grass, but that's pretty normal and my pups don't seem to mind one bit. Highly recommend this dog park for your pups!

As I opened the second fence to let him in (while my dog was still on leash) the big white dog rushed in and attacked my dog I had to pick him up and the dog started jumping on me as we exited the gate. The owner said it had never happened before that he is aggressive in bark only. While I was getting in my car to drive away I heard her say "oh she's not even going to walk her dog" ummm no lady I'm going home where I have a yard and no risk of random attack. My dog is very social and was at doggy daycare daily when we lived in city, so wanted to try it out. My dog was okay just a little shaken up but these public places run the risk of irresponsible dog owners and aggressive pets that maybe aren't accepted at daycare programs.
