About the Park
The City of Merrill runs an off-leash dog park that is free and open to the public. The off-leash area is the main feature, giving dogs a place to run without a leash in a community setting. Fencing, surface, and hours are not confirmed in our records, so it is worth checking the enclosure and posted rules when you arrive. Merrill sits in Lincoln County in north-central Wisconsin, where the Wisconsin and Prairie rivers meet, an area with warm summers and long, cold, snowy winters. Bring your own water and waste bags for your dog, since no further amenities are listed here, and verify current operating hours with the city before planning a visit.
