About the Park
Middleville, a village in Barry County's Thornapple Township, gives dogs an off-leash spot at its Bark Park in southwest-central Michigan. Use is free as a public park. The record confirms off-leash access but leaves fencing, surface, and hours undocumented, so verify them with the township before planning around them. This part of Michigan runs through warm, green summers and cold, snowy winters that change the footing across the year. Pack your own water and cleanup bags, and keep your dog leashed until you reach the off-leash zone. If a secure, fully enclosed area matters for your dog, ask the township whether the Bark Park is fenced, since our listing does not confirm it.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Middleville Bark 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, Middleville Bark Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
