It's near the shelter in West Jordan, so I assume that it gets a lot of use from the general public as well as the pups staying at the shelter. It's rather large-with multiple fenced in areas for running free. If one area has too many dogs or one that isn't playing nice with the others, you can pick a different section. I like that there's a sidewalk that goes around the perimeter, so you can walk and get your steps in while your pup follows loosely, or plays nearby. I appreciate the shaded benches and seating areas as well as the ample amounts of water stations. The parking lot is a little small, but there's more parking across the street at the ball fields if needed.

The adjacent nature preserve next to the creek is interesting to explore. The paths are well-worn and show the wear of a well-explored city park. Unfortunately, for all its promise, Wasatch Hollow Park is rundown. It has older playground equipment, dead and patchy grass, and poorly maintained grounds. It would be great to see the city invest in and improve this park.

Some people like to say I ONLY give five star reviews, but for those of you who know me, or read my…read morereviews, you would know that is most definitely not true. I am either extremely happy about places, or I like to constructively tell them how they can be better. Given, I won't be giving them five stars if they gave some area for improvement, just some real talk so ya'll don't think I am just yanking your chain around telling you everywhere is oh so cool, when it most oh so certainly is not. This particular park is super close to my house. So close I can walk there if my dogs and I are feeling adventerous and like we ate our wheaties that day. Only a joke because I am gluten free! Anyways, this park is pretty cool. In summer they actually do free movies in the park and that was the first time we stumbled across this great place. It is huge, they have a playground and jungle gym. So whether you have an animal, or little ones, meaning kids, or anything I guess? You should come here. The kids love it as well as the animals. I don't ever let mine off the leash, even though they are small I never know how close they will stay towards home. Home being me, myself, and I. Also point being, because they are small, they tend to have what some may call the, "little man syndrome" they like to prove their tough even though they are small, so they do the whole big bark, small interior. They are harmless and each on their own weight below ten pounds, definitely, most definitely, not frightening.

This is a pretty simple park, but it's it pretty good condition and it's in a great part of town…read more For being just one park, it's really feels like several parks all wrapped up in one. At the northernmost section it's all open and grassy. Then to the southeast, but still at the top of the park towards the middle, there's a decent-sized playground for the kiddies. Those directions make sense, right? You'll see it. The northeast quadrant is much more heavily wooded as you head uphill to the east. And by wooded, I mean treed. They're not woods, but there are plenty of mature trees to provide a little shade on those hot days. The south side of the park is tennis land, with several courts bunched together in the walled portion of the park to the southwest. Finch Lane bisects the lower half, but there are still courts on the east side. Finch Lane proper also houses the Art Barn, home of the Salt Lake City Arts Council. I may have been there as a pup, but I don't recall going lately so perhaps a return visit (and review, of course) is due. Don't be fooled by the barn moniker--by all accounts it's a lovely gallery kind of space and home of the good people of the Council. If there's a complaint to be had, it's that parking can be a challenge. You're mostly looking at street parking, and lots of it is time-limited, with section of No Parking along the way to confuse you. Be patient, and know that you may have to walk. I didn't see them, but they list picnic tables as amenities. They also mention a drinking fountain, but I didn't see that either. The open fields are mostly just grass and trees. But lovely, lush and wel-groomed grass and trees.

It's not the closest to home (for us) but it is in a rather convenient location in Sandy near lots of residences, so it gets lots of love. There's a dedicated parking lot a short walk away from the entrance to the park. In fact, there are two separate areas-perhaps to segregate the large and small dogs. But the day I went, the park nearer to the parking lot was chained off. It's not uncommon to see that when the turf needs time to breath, but that area had no grass. So I'm not sure why it was closed. The side that was open was plenty large. There's a track that circles the park, with a play area on either side. Our dogs prefer to walk with us, venturing off the path to chase an interesting scent or to claim a tree as their own. Plenty of other dogs were chasing balls or each other in the middle area. It's so cute! Can I pet that dog? And that one? I appreciate that there is seating along the path for people to take a break. Benches or seats near trees where there is shade is ideal and they have a few of those.

It's gated so most people hang their dogs leashes up on the fence area before entering that way their animals can roam free. It gets hot but there is some shade and some picnic tables so people can meet up for doggy dates or picnics in the afternoon or evening. It stays open pretty late with the days being longer now that it is summer. It's a wonderful dog park with lovely dogs who are all usually fun, friendly, and safe dogs for everyone to interact with.

Since they can't talk (at least in a language I understand) I interpret the way they sleep in the car on the way home as the gauge to how much fun they had. And they slept HARD on the drive after this visit. This is by far my favorite so far-it feels more like a hike in the mountains than a dog park. Sure, there are fences to keep everyone in the right places, but it's so large and densely populated with trees that it feels like you're just casually out in nature exploring. There are pools of water, streams, meandering paths among the trees and some decent hills to climb that all contribute to the experience. There is a good amount that's shaded, which is appreciated on hot days. I hear that it's a fun place to visit in the winter too! I did notice a lack of garbage cans throughout the trail, which resulted in lots of dog poo bags scattered about. But other than the poo bags, there wasn't much litter and everyone seemed to be behaving nicely.

Bummer, but maybe that's to help keep the numbers down and the revenue up for the city? If you do get a permit, it's a great place to let your pups roam free while you walk the track along the perimeter of the park. There are lots of mature trees (although the aren't around the path itself) and a few concrete tunnels for them to explore. I appreciate the benches under shade structures as well.
