The park has hiking trails, a nature center, picnic spots, a playground, and a dog park, all adjacent to Lake Roland. I recently discovered that canoeing, kayaking, fishing, and birdwatching and local favorites, too. Sometimes I go just to zone out while enjoying the weather or just taking a quick nap in the car. Very peaceful spot.

There's even a fitness circuit as well as a roller skating park. We mainly stayed at the kids playground but I did get a good look at the fitness section and it's nice because it's shaded.

It's a great dog park overall! My parents have been coming here for many years with no issues. Most…read moredog owners are very responsible; however, BEWARE of a woman with two young kids and a one-year-old Dalmatian. About two months ago, the Dalmatian viciously attacked my dog twice, and we then had to take my dog to the emergency vet to receive stitches and a drainage pump. The owner was not able to take control of the dog. Due to the attack, my dog had several deep puncture wounds on her thigh. The Dalmatian and the owner have been reported to animal control. This person cannot take control of her dog at the dog park, refuses to take responsibility, and pays for the associated emergency vet cost.

Not sure if anyone will check Yelp for dog parks but if you're anything like me, hi and I hope my…read morereview helps;) Yes... this dog park is open. Open until sundown. Lots of dogs typically around 5 (apparently... today was my first time here with my dog but I spoke to a few people) Yes... there is an entry fee of $5 and proof of vaccination IS required. If you find the park to your liking, as long as your dog is up to date on vaccination, you are eligible for a one year membership which is only $40, the $40 will be good for up to 3 dogs that are your own (meaning, you don't have to pay $40 per dog if you have more than 1). I spoke to the lady who runs the park- she is very very sweet. She told me there is a Facebook group called Maryland dog park community. It seems there's lots of pictures and videos and events posted in this account, all from this location. I'm looking forward to getting this membership and bringing my pup here! For more info, I recommend checking out their Facebook page!

Management checks to make sure the dogs are licensed and has a recent rabies shot. No kids under a certain age are allowed which is smart because you can't predict how all dogs are going to act around kids and vice versa. Charlie enjoys running around barking at the big dogs and playing or just laying around. My only suggestion is more benches for the humans to sit and maybe a shaded area. Otherwise Charlie and I enjoy this park.

Meaning it was more dirt paths and weeds/scrubs atleast 10+ years ago. However, they still seem to preserve the natural habits (forest) for the wildlife. This is very very clean.!!! There are benchs along the paths. They have iron fencing in place as well. Parking is not abundant but its in place. And last but not least I did not see any place to potty properly legally. One can run, stroll, bike, walk your pup or sit on the manicured lawn. Please pick your dog poop up and dispose of such. There are poop bag and disposal stations around the path!! One complete lap is 1miles.

Apparently no children under the age of eight are allowed, although I did see a toddler in there. Your dog must wear a Baltimore city registration tag as well as their rabies tag which I can guarantee most of the dogs in there did not have on. Dogs must be over four months old to enter the dog park and if they're over nine months, they need to be neutered or spayed. I did not see any aggressive dogs. The other thing is they do not allow you to bring your own toys. There are water fountains for the dogs. There's also only street parking.

I mean that I would pretend to be a dog and play with the dogs themselves. If anyone were to catch a stick it would probably be me, because a little kid saw me at the park and got very frightened and threw a stick at me. It left a huge bump on my head and the other dogs decided to gang up on me and beat me up. In conclusion, I give this park 4/5 because I had a fun time but there are way too many sticks and the dogs that beat me up stole my wallet.

There are benches scattered throughout that are facing inward toward the lake, some with amazing views and a few obstructed by the trees & greenery but still serene spots to just sit, relax & chat or just take in the scenery. The trail/loop is a little under 2 miles in total and it offers great views, some flowers here and there and loads of geese. I've never experienced it being overly crowded with people on the loop and the atmosphere is very peaceful. I will continue to frequent this park. Oh and if it ever gets too hot while out there, you can always pop into Rita's Italian Ice or Custard ;-)
