There is a fun little agility area, and the small dog area has its own pool. The large dog area is kept up nicely, including the pool, and there are shady places for us to sit and chat while the dogs run amuk. I am very happy to have found this place - actually my friend invited us out and we have been going off and on ever since. I'm impressed by how well-maintained the caretakers keep it. Thanks Animal Friends of Washington County!

Do not go to this dog park if you are a nice person and have a friendly dog!!! The manager is crazy…read moreand prefers only older people and unfriendly dogs visit the dog park. This dog park is not your typical family-friendly dog park for families and their dogs to play. I have seen so many dangerous situations and have left a message for the manager/owner with no return call. We will never go back! I've seen two separate people on two separate occasions leave crying and running away with their dogs due to the horrible people. The people are very unfriendly and hate children and families. Only older, retired people go to this park and several have unfriendly, aggressive dogs and have to take them to the smaller dog park when friendly dogs arrive. It's a shame this dog park is so poorly managed, unfriendly and dangerous - our community could use a nice dog park that is family-friendly and safe. DO NOT GO TO THIS DOG PARK! There are amazing dog parks for ALL close by. It's not worth the risk to take your friendly dog/family to this place. And, if something happens, they will not care.

Burroughs Park is one of those places that makes you appreciate having great local parks nearby…read more It's huge and has a little bit of everything -- fishing ponds, multiple playgrounds for kids of different ages, long walking trails, and plenty of open space to just enjoy being outside. The playground areas are especially great for families because there are several scattered throughout the park, so it never feels overly crowded. The fishing ponds are also a nice touch if you want to slow things down and relax for a bit. It's a great spot for a weekend walk, letting the kids burn off some energy, or just getting some fresh air. The park is generally well maintained and there's plenty of room to spread out. Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that it can get pretty busy on nice days and parking near the playgrounds fills up fast. But overall, it's definitely one of the better parks in the area and worth the visit.

Lots of giant trees where squirrels like to play hide and seek with the dogs.

There's a couple of wash stations outside of the dog park which comes in handy.

Stopping here afterwards, I was pleased that the trail goes through the Hudson neighborhood and connects with Tiffany Park along with Copperfield Lane. Plenty of trees and the landscape of homes give a nice view as you cut through the neighborhood. Also the trail is well-kept and covers a good amount of ground. Great for dog walking/jogging. Another great one in Bryan/CC!

Our favorite dog park and nearly the only one in Huntsville to begin with. It's not huge, but our…read moredogs live in an apartment so they can run up and down that little fenced in strip of grass for HOURS. There are two benches, a trash can, and a doggy doo disposal can as well. There isn't a lot to it, and I advise you to bring your own bowl for water, as there is a fountain, but there isn't any way for the pups to stay hydrated without you bringing something to put the water in! Anyways, as simple as it is, it's quiet and a nice place to sit and enjoy nature and watch your fur babies have a good time!

Great, secluded state park next to a neighborhood. I'd consider Palmetto a hidden gem in Texas. I…read moredrove here from Austin and it took me about 1.5 hours. The way I took lead me down a neighborhood street, which led me straight to the park's headquarters. They had a small and very limited selection of gifts for purchase, but the park ranger there was friendly and recommended a couple of trails and points of interest. I hiked a series of trails along the outside perimeter of the park, which combined was about 3.5 miles. Each new segment had a different ecosystem and it was interesting to see different sights and hear new sounds. The trails are mostly shaded, though I went on an overcast day. There's also a low river crossing where I saw some people fishing on. At all Texas state parks, no fishing license is needed to fish. The sound of the river was soothing and refreshing. I genuinely enjoyed my time here and would love to return here to visit again someday.

Asking personal questions like where do you live? Where do you work? Or even a small group standing on the middle of the sidewalk creating a chokepoint to force direct engagement. I know it takes courage and guts to approach a woman but ganging up on a woman making her feel uncomfortable is a, NO! There was a group of white males this summer (2025) peacocking in a family park with women and children, running with their shirts off. It's TX and the summers are brutally, hot but I have never seen men out there like that and approaching women inappropriately with their shirts off. That new sun will burn the skin off your back & chest without proper covering. They definitely were not US Army or military. Additionally, there is also a school aged little white boy on a scooter middle school aged out there with those men & women in the of the middle of the school day out taking photos and following. Seems like some kind of gang or scheme to monitor women & possibly harm or take advantage of women & young girls. Group of men and women posted in vehicles and in the park watching & lurking & following. They stage strategically and use the kid on the scooter as well to track & monitor. Just be careful, just got weirdo vibes out in the park over the last several months. I know the park can be a space to meet people but this gives off creep vibes and predators. I don't want to be driven off from my community park that I love, but I no longer feel safe. Find alternative locations to workout or walk your dog. BE SAFE! Get some bear or pepper spray!

I love going to this dog park , they keep everything so nice and kept up. Every dog owner I met out…read morethere have wonderful people and very respectful. Then there was today nothing wrong with the park or anyone at the park BUT there's a house off of E Murray St and they were shooting pelt guns towards the dog park. I have the full address if y'all want it. I yelled out to them to not shoot this was but they just showed me that I was #1 and kept on . I'm very grateful that my dog wasn't hit by a pellet and they're very blessed they didn't hit her with a pellet. As much as I love going to this dog park we won't be going anymore. There's no reason to shoot pellet guns into a dog park that takes a certain kind of Stupid to do such a thing. You can tell they truly don't care about any type of pet . So if anyone has a good dog park suggestion I'll be glad to hear it. Nothing against Officer Cash dog park but for the safety of my dog we won't be going there anymore.

I'm not sure why this has me updating my review! Sorry! It's just the exact same as the other…read moreportion posted... See below: Neat dog park dedicated to K9 Cash, the first K9 officer of the Angleton Police Department. I like the tribute! The entrance is to the right of the Angleton Animal Control building, with plenty of parking. Make sure your pooch has it's shots prior to going and gets along well with others! They have an obstacle ourse for dogs made from recycled playground parts which is neat. There's a seesaw, a "jump through", weave pol, a tunnel, a slide, and a couple other things. There are picnic tables for the humans to sit on- be sure to bring your own water for yourself. There is a water fountain for the dogs (and one higher up for humans), but I'd still bring a bottle with me. There's also a small fenced off area where you can take smaller dogs, if the big ones are too rowdy. There's doggy waste bags at the entrance of the bigger part for the dog park. Sometimes it's empty, I'd let animal control next door know this because they usually have extras. It does get hot in the summer, but there's a small covered area. Bring bug spray if it's mosquito season and it's later in the evening. There's a dog park group for this particular park on Facebook, so you can set up play dates with other pooches. Works well if you have a bigger dog and want equal sized playmates, lol!

We have lived in the area for a while now and we just love everything about McKinney Roughs!…read more First and foremost their hiking trails: they have a variety of trails for different levels and the views are spectacular. It's never super crowded, sometimes you may run into for horses if you're on horse-friendly trails and you can hike down to the Colorado River as well. The trails are pretty well maintained and marked. Summer camps: my son (7) has been attending their day summer camps for three years now and absolutely loves them! They are from 9-4 so very friendly for those parents working. There is also a bus that brings kids in from Austin as well. The price can't be beat as well. Each day he comes home telling me about what he learned and got to experience (most times I am jealous- like you got to go kayaking? Make and drink yaupon tea? What- how cool!) The camp counselors are extremely friendly and knowledgeable and treat the kids with kindness and respect. They also have a beautiful facility, overall. The grounds are clean and well-kept. McKinney Roughs is simply the best!

Their Halloween event, Tricks, Treats, and Trails is also always a big hit with my family. They have a rock wall, paintball, archery, and other things to do. This was our second year and it was great!
