Outdoor Pet Recreation Area

About the Park

Real grass underfoot distinguishes this pet recreation area in western Virginia Beach's 23464 zip code, where a natural surface is easier on paws than gravel or crushed stone in summer heat. The name is generic and the documentation is light — no fencing status, hours, or extra amenities are recorded — so this reads as a simple, free, open-air spot for dogs rather than a full-featured dog park. That still has its uses: soft ground and free access cover the basics for a sniff-and-stretch stop. The 23464 area sits inland on the Kempsville side of the city, well away from the resort strip. Keep dogs leashed until you've confirmed boundaries in person, and treat anything beyond grass and open air as unverified until you see it.
