About the Park
Small dogs and large dogs get their own fenced runs at the Dog Park at Hunter Street Park, located at 1250 Ambergate Station in Apex. The fully fenced layout uses a wood-chip surface, easier on joints than packed dirt and less muddy after Carolina rain. Water fountains serve the dogs, shade gazebos and benches give owners a place to sit, and waste-bag stations are spread through the area. Lighting extends usable time in the evening, with the park open daily from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. There is no fee — it operates as a free public park run by the Town of Apex. Hunter Street Park itself sits in the 27502 zip code in this fast-growing Raleigh-area suburb.
