Fairfax Reserve is a spacious park at Harrington Park with a large playing field, a playground, BBQ facilities and courts. Dogs are welcome on-leash, kept clear of playgrounds, with up to four dogs per person and parking on hand. The big open field makes it a comfortable spot for a relaxed walk. A pleasant, roomy on-leash park.

Dog rules

Dogs must be on a leash at all times in public places except in designated off-leash areas. Dog owners must clean up after their dogs. The maximum number of dogs that may be under one person's effective control is four. Dogs are prohibited within 10 metres of children's play equipment, food preparation/consumption areas, public swimming pools, schools, kindergartens, sports grounds during organised activities, and wildlife protection areas.

Massive AFL field for dogs to play fetch, kids play area, basketball courts, and tennis courts. Highly safe and beautiful area for these activities 😁

Cricket oval. AFL. Swing set. Tennis courts. Great community location.

Great large reserve providing lots of green space for the neighbourhood. The water quality of the lake, however, is of great concern.

Not a bad looking AFL ground...local team has tasty food at the canteen on game days

Old school footy oval with modern amenities and large car park. Only issue was flying insects everywhere! The oval is set in a large housing development which is quite natural in the way it incorporates natural features including existing waterways and large trees. Tuckshop did not sell pies, but had a sausage sizzle on the day we were there.
