About the Park
Evergreen Bark Park is a two+ acre dog park in Effingham, Illinois with separate large and small dog sections, both fenced with double-gated entry corrals. The park features ADA accessible walkways, shade structures, benches, waste stations, human water fountains with dog-level water bowls, and a rinsing station for cleaning dogs.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Evergreen Bark 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.
There's a separate area for small dogs, which is perfect if you have a smaller breed that might be intimidated by larger dogs. This is a feature many dog owners specifically look for.
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.
The park has agility equipment, which is excellent for high-energy dogs that need both physical and mental stimulation. Even if your dog hasn't tried agility before, most dogs pick it up quickly with a little encouragement.
Evergreen Bark Park operates on a unknown basis. Check with the park directly for current pricing details.
backpackWhat to Bring

A towel
Your dog will likely get wet at the water features. Save your car seats with a quick dry-off.

Your dog's favorite toy
