About the Park
Open daily from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m., the fully fenced dog park at Deep Creek Park is one of Chesapeake's better-equipped off-leash stops. Inside the fence, dogs get water access, and owners get seating and waste bags. The setting is the bigger draw: Deep Creek Park sits at 437 George Washington Highway South in the 23323 zip code, with a one-mile perimeter trail that connects to the Dismal Swamp Canal Trail, so you can pair off-leash play with a long leashed walk. The surrounding park also has an ADA-accessible destination playground, picnic shelters with grills, and lighted ball fields, and the grounds are wheelchair accessible. Entry is free. For families splitting time between kids and a dog, this layout covers both in one trip.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Dog Park at Deep Creek Park is fully fenced, so your dog can run and play off-leash without worry. This makes it a great choice for dogs still working on recall or for owners who want extra peace of mind.
Dogs can enjoy water features here — great for cooling off on hot days. Bring a towel for the car ride home, because your pup will probably get soaked.
Walking trails are available, so you and your dog can enjoy a walk beyond just the off-leash area. Trails are a great option for dogs who enjoy sniffing and exploring at their own pace.
Best of all, Dog Park at Deep Creek Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
