Miller Meadows is a wonderful and huge dog park. Doggies are guaranteed to enjoy themselves with…read moreso much space to run and play. So many different breeds of beautiful dogs eager and excited to play with each other, and their parents, as well. And, of course, they can play alone if they desire...Miller Meadows is large enough for you and your pup to have his/her own space to do whatever they like. And, I often get my daily steps in when my doggy and I are at Miller Meadows. There are close to 2 Laps inside the park for a mile. I often get in 10 miles (20 laps) while we're there...No less than 5 miles. And Miller Meadows is one of the Cook County Preserve Parks, and the dog park is just one area of Miller Meadows. There is a beautiful, amazing path/trail on the outskirts surrounding the dog park with a breathtaking walking scenery of forestry, and wild life...the doggies love the deer. And of course, the path is great for not only walking your doggy, but for biking, jogging, rollerblading/skating, and health walking. There are several picnic tables if you wish to relax sit/eat/chat while watching your dog play; and several stations with poop bags. But, THERE IS NO WATER FOUNTAIN/SUPPLY in the dog park...So, the parents bring water, and we keep the many water pans (already there) filled with water for our doggies. Come for a visit...You'll Love It!!

The large dogs section has a second entrance/exit at the far end that connects to the walking path around the Ray Franzen Bird Sanctuary.

Forest Park's dog park, just north of I-290, is completely fenced in and covered with mulch. Suzy…read moreGreenberg really enjoys it when there aren't too many big dogs around. Technically you are supposed to get a yearly permit from the village for $10, but I've never seen them come in and check. I have, however, been playing with my dog in the park and gotten a parking ticket for not paying the meter. The meters and permits go to the upkeep of the park, so that's a good reason to go along with the small fees. It gets a little hot in the summer as there is no shade, and the mulch turns into a sheet of ice in mid-winter, but it's a decent park over all. Just watch out for the dogs that seem a little afraid or angry and go with your instincts. Owners don't always realize their dog isn't socialized or comfortable at the park and I have seen fights. I leave rather than take the chance.

I understand this isn't the fault of the forest preserve but I just wish they maybe had security or cameras idk just in case?

When I've walked along the paths, I've seen people fishing in the pond during the warmer months. The playground looks like a nice one. They have a basketball court next to it. I've heard there are tennis courts, but I think they must be on the East side of the park. I'll need to explore that side a bit more. There's a cute little bridge that allows you to easily cross over Salt Creek. I didn't see any photos of the canoe launch, so I'll share a couple here. Unfortunately, we had a lot of rain the day before, so the ramp to the boat launch was pretty flooded. There are also doggy bag stations on the path near the parking lot.
