    My dogs and I love coming here! There's two areas, one for small dogs, one for everyone. There's a cute little fountain to cool your pup off at and they get to run on fake grass, which is great during the summer time. There's places for you to sit and watch your pet, and trash cans everywhere with bags.

    Very impressed with the QUALITY and investment into this dog park. It's not only turfed, but there's a lot of clean benches to sit on, refreshed disposable bags throughout, & a large water fountain.. I've personally never seen such a well maintained doggy playground. We were overjoyed to see the community using this facility ~ there were about 10 other dogs there the Thursday morning we went. It's a great location to keep your suburban dog socialized.

    A great place to bring your dog, however this last time I was here none of the owners were picking up after their dogs and it smelled really bad, it was very crowded which is fun for the dogs, b really got to me is other peoples neglect of picking up after their dogs, I like the Astroturf since the dogs don't get all filthy rolling around in dirt, even though there is a dirt patch on the side that leads to a different area that is also gated, not really sure what it's for, but anyway, is not a bad place and 3 min from my house.

    I love how excited the dogs get when a new dog comes in!

    This dog park is easy to pull in and has a great deal of parking. Even if it's a busy, packed day, you can drive down to any of the other parking lots and enjoy a short walk to the playpen. I've never seen a water fountain for dogs, but I'm glad they had one. The sun was scalding today! We could all use more hydration in our lives. Our dogs had a fantastic time with their new pals! All the tail-waggers got along nicely. I could tell the community cares about their pets. Just about everyone in the Johns Creek neighborhood seems respectable & caring to each other. Thanks again for a splendid time. I'm excited about my next experience.

    This is a great dog park! This park is so clean and friendly. There is turf for grass and there is a big water fountain in the center of the dog park. There is also an arched bridge with tunnels under it for your dog to explore. There's much more things to do there. Cotton and Biscuit really liked the bridge: they wouldn't stop walking across it! There is a small and large dog park for any small dog owners. There are some aggressive dogs there but not a lot. They also have a wooded area for them to explore. My dogs had a blast at this dog park and I highly recommend going to this dog park if you live near it.

    The big dog area of awesome. Huge area to run and lots of obstacles to play on and around. This small dog area could be a little bigger with more obstacles but my little ones still enjoyed it. Overall everyone was polite. It was very clean. My dogs enjoyed their morning here.

    This is one nice dog park. They have lights for when it gets dark, how many dog parks have that? Super nicely maintained. Has a doggy bridge, a shaded area, kiddy pools, a gire hydrant (acts as a fountain). Many benches and doggy picnic table. Trash cans and poop bags. There is a small and large dog section. There is also a separate section that is mulched for perhaps training. It says it is sponsored by purina. Honestly, i would pay money to go to this dog park each time, that is how nice it is. It isnt suuper big but good enough. The grass is very nice artificial grass.

    This is hands down the best dog park I have been to. Me and my girlfriend got a newfoundland puppy last september and everytime he leaves the house he goes to sit by my car because he wants to go to this park. I love the artificial turf that covers most of the park as anyone who has a long haired white dog probably does. The turf makes it so that every trip to the park doesn't involve giving him a bath. There are always people and dogs there which is nice because it's kind of the point of the dog park is to let you dog play with other dogs. During the summer there are fountains for dogs that love being wet and the water. So if you are going during the warm weather months be sure to bring towels because if your dog wants to be wet here he will be. The one thing to be aware of is there is a presence of some helicopter dog parents here so you may have to explain that just because dogs are making noise doesn't mean they are being aggressive. All in all there are great people here who love their dogs as well as yours. Any pup will enjoy this place.

    After a lonngg hiatus I have returned to Yelp. First stop, back to Newtown Park and dog park area. This is the improvement I was hoping for. Finally a nice area for the little dogs too! We now have a small cute area with benches for pet parents (both shaded and unshaded), there is a bone shaped little fountain, lots of space for our little ones to roam and sniff about and astro turf...Yehhhh It seems every park we visit the little dogs always get the runt of whatever is leftover from the large dog areas and usually they are not very well kept. Little dogs are dogs too so treat us like family:-). Please continue to obey the rules patrons and keep your large breeds out of our little area! You have one of your own right next door literally. Also some pet parents need to reminders of proper etiquette and behavior from your pets, be respectful when you bring your fur-kids to the parks We arrived on Father's Day at 9AM. I love going that time of the morning, a lot less people or dogs and more parking as this is quite a popular spot. We drive from Cobb county to spend time here. This time we really explored the park itself and how wonderful and beautiful it truly is. The walking, bike paths are sooo amazing with fountains, bridges, sitting areas and lots of green space. We did take note the storms did a little bit of damage throughout the park knocking down large tree limbs etc The ponds had the turtles out and it was just a gorgeous day, lots of elders out walking, parents with kids and loads of us with dogs on leashes enjoying the day. I love nature and this a park that will now become more of our fabric of life, we can't wait to get back there soon......

    This place is awesome to bring your dogs, it's clean, and have fun amenities for the dogs, like little pools and a hydrant fountain. Plenty people with different size and personality dogs, so your dog will definitely find a good buddy to play. I just wish the people that know their dogs can be snapping would be closer to them

I didn't walk that far because I always stop for my pup to play with the bigs. There is fresh water at the entrance, and when it's hot, there are plastic pools you can fill and mud for your dog to play in. There is some shade, but it's not every where, and the grass (as you'd probably expect) is non-existent, but it's a fun time, especially when people actually get off their phones (AND THE BENCHES) and play with their dogs.

Once inside, I headed straight for the Bar(k) for some beer and cocktails. There's a good selection for whatever sustenance you need on a hot summer day. I wanted something cold and juicy - the POG basement IPA is one of my favorites, so I skipped the draft list and opted for the can. I also loved the cocktail list with dog themed names - the Moscow Mutt was pretty tasty. There isn't much shade at the park - so we were all crowded under the shade of the awnings, attempting to get as close to the fans as possible. I tried to get my pup to go out to the turf and play with other dogs but it was way too hot for her so she just kept following me back to the shade to chill. The tennis balls were too big for her to catch and there are only one size available. She prefers to play fetch with the smaller balls we have at home. The dog trainers/park workers tried to interact with her but she was a bit aloof and clingy to me. My pup is not very dog friendly anymore thanks to a bad incident at a public dog park, so unfortunately I can't come by regularly now - however if your dog enjoys playing with other dogs and people and you want to be able to drink and socialize at the same time, definitely recommend!

The dog park is sectioned off for large and small dogs. My review is based on the large dog park. Half of the park is filled with gravel makes the area cleaner than most after a rainy day. The other half is like a forested area with dirt. On hot afternoons, many dog owners and their pups gather in that area to keep cool. PROS: - 3 water stations - Multiple poop bag dispensers that always stocked in my experience - Lots of benches throughout the park - Wash off area outside the park - Almost always occupied with dogs throughout the day - Gravel - Convenient walking trail entrance adjacent to park - Well lit parking lot and park CONS: - Some days, there's more poop on the ground than others. Not too bad though. - The wash off area can be cleaner - Not close enough to home :( Parking is plentiful.

Located not far from Roswell Road, the dog park is nestled inside a much larger recreation area that includes hiking trails and a pretty cool dam. However, there's a lot of construction going on near it right now, and that added about 12 minutes of just sitting in the car to my travel time. Right now it's too inconvenient to visit often, but otherwise I could see myself really digging it, and will definitely try again in a few months. My Labrador certainly approved! There are, in fact, two fenced-in areas for dogs. One is for smaller dogs (24 lbs and under) and the other for medium-to-large dogs (25 and up.) Both are spacious, and have a few agility obstacles such as tire mountains, if your pooch is in the mood for a workout.

Install another spigot that may need to be caged, or offer a different water source please #2. The dog waste bags post is empty. People have tied the poop bags on the fence. Granted, one should come prepared but, still! #3. There is a man who owns an aggressive red colour Rhodesian Ridge-back that is not neutered. Today, just thru the fence, the Ridge-back went on a rampage against another large dog that was incoming. The owners of such dog decided to enter the small dog park which was empty, and stayed there until the owner of Rhodesian Ridge-back finally took his dog and left. Once these newcomer entered, there was no fighting or aggression. I was informed by 3 regulars that tRhodesian Ridge-back has fought and made bleed someone else's dog in weeks ago. The owner has no respect for others and continues to bring this almost 140 Lb creature to the dog park to mingle notwithstanding that his dog has aggression issues. The incident that caused the other dog to bleed, the owner of the Ridge-back simple took his dog and walked away without acknowledging the issue. So, BOLO for the huge Rhodesian Ridge-back .
