About the Park
Ithaca's dog park, run by this small Gratiot County seat in central Michigan, gives local dogs an off-leash place to play. The city maintains a parks website where you can review current information before heading over. It is free to use as a public park. Our listing confirms off-leash access but not fencing, surface, or hours, so lean on that city page or a quick call to fill in the gaps. Central Michigan cycles through warm summers and cold, snowy winters, which shape the grounds through the year. Bring water and waste bags, and leash up for the walk in. Confirm any registration or vaccination requirements with the city before your first visit.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Ithaca 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, Ithaca Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
backpackWhat to Bring
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 folding chair
This park may have limited seating, so a portable chair can make longer visits more comfortable.
A reflective collar or light-up leash
If you visit near dusk, visibility gear helps you keep track of your dog and stay safe.
High-value treats

Your dog's favorite toy
