What people say
Great dog park. Fully enclosed. Shaded areas to sit. Only negative is the water tap isn't in the enclosure. You need to carry the bucket full of water approx 50 meters, not great for people with any physical issues.
Large fenced leash-free dog park. Bring your own poop bags to pu after your dogs business as individual bags are tied on the outer fence in different places, but no roll in dispenser. The grass was a bit long when there, maybe due to so much rain. Lots of plastic chairs within the park to sit on if wanted. Double gated entrance for safe exiting and entering. A path for walking down to dog park from street.
A great and safe place to let your dogs run around. It's a community as the humans gather and chat while the dogs socialise and have fun. Small and large dogs have separate areas, just in case one or the other doesn't get along. There is water also, albeit far from where the dogs are. Hopefully #centralcoastcouncil will move the tap closer.
Great park, friendly dogs & owners, only drawback is you have to walk a couple of hundred metres to get water, so bring your own.
