Fairmount Dog Park is a 12-acre fenced off-leash area in Kalamazoo, Michigan, featuring separate sections for small and large dogs, a watering hole, agility course, and scenic grassy hills with woodlands. It includes amenities like benches, picnic tables, a shade pavilion, and dog waste stations for pet owners. The park emphasizes safety with a double gate system and requires all dogs to have a valid Kalamazoo County dog license.
Fairmont 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.
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.
Best of all, Fairmont Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
Fresh water and a bowl
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.
A towel
Your dog will likely get wet at the water features. Save your car seats with a quick dry-off.
High-value treats
Useful for practicing recall in a distracting environment and rewarding good social behavior.
Your dog's favorite toy
A familiar toy can help shy dogs feel more comfortable and give them something to focus on.
Note: All dogs must have a valid Kalamazoo County dog license. 'Stoop and scoop' protocol in effect (pick up after your dog). During winter months, parking lot is closed; park on street and access via sidewalk. No registration, key fob, or membership fees required.
