About the Park
Duryea Dog Park is fully fenced with a gravel surface, a combination that makes it a solid choice in Peoria Heights just north of Peoria along the Illinois River. The perimeter fence lets you unclip the leash with confidence, while the gravel footing drains well and stays workable after rain when grass would turn to mud. A local community organization keeps a page for the park, giving residents a reference for hours and rules. It is free to use as a public facility. Because posted hours are not listed in our records, check on site or via that page before an early or late visit. Specific amenities beyond the fencing and surface are not documented, so bring your own water and waste bags to be safe.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Duryea Dog 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.
Best of all, Duryea Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
backpackWhat to Bring

Even parks with water fountains can have them out of service. Bring your own to be safe.
Poop bags
Most parks provide them, but don't rely on it. Always come prepared to clean up after your dog.

This park may have limited seating, so a portable chair can make longer visits more comfortable.
