Miller Meadow Off-Leash Dog Area is a 7-acre fenced space operated by the Forest Preserves of Cook County, located near Forest Park, IL. It offers ample room for dogs to run leash-free and connects to 2 miles of leashed trails. Access requires an annual membership permit with proof of vaccinations.
Miller Meadow Off-Leash Dog Area 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.
Walking trails are available, so you and your dog can enjoy a walk beyond just the off-leash area. Trails are a great option for dogs who enjoy sniffing and exploring at their own pace.
Best of all, Miller Meadow Off-Leash Dog Area is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
