About the Park
Houston is a small community in the Matanuska-Susitna Borough, about 60 miles north of Anchorage along the Parks Highway. This off-leash dog park is free and open to the public. The Mat-Su Valley is one of Alaska's fastest-growing regions, with a mix of forested areas, lakes, and residential development. The park carries an off-leash designation, but current data does not confirm fencing, surface type, operating hours, or any amenities. The 99694 zip code covers the Houston area. No water access, lighting, or additional features are documented. Given the limited information, dog owners should verify conditions locally before making the drive. Winters in this area bring heavy snow, and road conditions on the Parks Highway can vary.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Houston Dog Park is an off-leash area without full fencing. Make sure your dog has solid recall before letting them loose, and keep an eye on them near any roads or boundaries.
Best of all, Houston 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.
A reflective collar or light-up leash

High-value treats
