Free Entry
The Ocean County Dog Park at Ocean County Park in Lakewood, NJ, is a 4-acre off-leash facility with separate areas for small and large dogs. It requires a permit for entry, including proof of license, vaccinations, neutering for males, and a $5 annual fee per dog. Dogs must be at least 6 months old.
Ocean County 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.
Best of all, Ocean County Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.

Even parks with water fountains can have them out of service. Bring your own to be safe.
Poop bags

A folding chair
This park may have limited seating, so a portable chair can make longer visits more comfortable.
