It was very quiet while we were there, the one person we did meet did express concern that our kids were there. I noticed previous poster also said to leave kids at home. I have four kids, three upright and one fur baby. I can't (and wouldn't) "leave them at home" nor do I hire a babysitter so I can take my dog to the dog park. ‍ Please be kind to all the families with dogs and kids. We do our best to respect that this is a "dog park" not a people park. But my kids are excited to run and play with their fur sibling and so long as it's not a crowded day, I feel they should do so without the shaming. We take our dog everywhere, including the people park...and no one has ever told us we should have left our dog at home.

What a better way to enjoy a huge enclosed forest for your doggy. You will also enjoy the freedom…read moreto let your dog run with out a leash. Unfortunately my dog would not walk unless he had a leash lol. It is a beautiful place to get your heart pumping. The only down side there is a lot of mud and millions of little white rocks so your car it is going to get dirty. Over all I had a lot of fun walking a little nervous but the park is really fenced all around and it had safe doors so your dog is not goi g to run away when someone comes in or walks out. Safe first it is actually more secure then a park for kids. Come and bring your doggy you will have fun

There are always dogs at the park for my pups to play with and there are always people wanting to walk and talk while I'm there. Sometimes I bring a book to read but a lot of the time I enjoy walking the path with a pack of dogs following behind!

I take my German Shepherd to Mayslake quite often. Most of the people there are very friendly and…read morekeep an eye on their animals. There are, however, some folks that don't control their dog when they get over-excited or aggressive. I, too, have noticed that there is a lot of dog poop laying around. There are plenty of bags (free) and refuse cans to put the garbage in. It's a little small, but there are plenty of places to rest. My shepherd enjoys his time with his dog buddies and loves to walk the perimeter.

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?

Many birds to see and hear as well. The trails don't let you go close to the marsh for waterfowl viewing unfortunately. The fenced in dog park is huge.

Trails have been repaved in the last several years they're all black topped. I've been away for…read moreseveral years so that's why I'm stating this. There's also some marked interior trails that are gravel or limestone that seem to go closer to the river. I do not travel those, I would imagine that would produce a lot more bugs. Apparently I have desirable blood, if you're a bug. So, Im not looking to get bit up by insects, so I stay on the main paths. Still have multiple shelters, and plenty of parking at each shelter, & there's grills, there's picnic tables. The dog park is still at Black Road, & and appears to be utilized regularly. Sometimes I'll walk all the way down from Black Road and the trail goes downhill as you get closer to 52/Jefferson and if you continue on it, the path goes underneath 52 and dumps out right behind the bar called Crowd Around Me. Multiple bathrooms along the way, there's semi kept up. I wouldn't say they're super clean but it's an outdoor bathroom. I'll give them this much credit, they are cleaned often enough that they aren't disgusting, and there's usually paper in there. Nice place to walk/bike/E bike/run. Or even gather some folks and have a picnic. Its usually pretty quiet in there. Little more crowded on the weekend, but that's understandable. Worth traveling through. And like I say a good place for exercise.

There's quite a lot of dog poop on the trails so watch. A lot of dog owners come here. It isn't strictly a dog park but it's very friendly for them. There's lots of features including drinking fountains and poop bags if there's any left, which often there aren't so it's advised to bring some bags with you. Also there's trash cans for these bags. The bad thing about this park is you need a permit. Grills are available for cooking. It also has a pavilion. The DuPage River is good for kayaking and wading.
