About the Park
Open around the clock, this Mitchell park lets owners visit whenever their schedule allows, day or night. The fully fenced grounds separate large and small dogs, and gravel pathways run through shaded areas that help on hot afternoons. Water access and drinking fountains keep dogs hydrated, and benches give owners a place to sit. There's no fee to use it. The gravel surface drains well after rain, cutting down on mud. Because it's open 24 hours, lighting conditions vary, so bring a flashlight for late visits. Its central location makes it easy to reach from around town. Pack waste bags and confirm the gate is secure before letting your dog off the leash.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Mitchell 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.
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, Mitchell Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
