About the Park
Dogs who like water will find plenty at Riverside Dog Park on Dolphin Way in Evans, which has a swimming area, a rinse hose for muddy paws afterward, and general water access. It is fully fenced with separate small-dog and large-dog areas, a double-gated entrance, a dog-friendly trail, and wheelchair-accessible access, and it runs daily from about 7:30 AM to dusk at no charge as a public park. Evans sits in Columbia County just outside Augusta. The swimming area and rinse hose set this one apart, especially in the humid Georgia summer, and the accessible layout is a thoughtful touch. Watch dogs closely around the water, and bring waste bags as a backup in case none are stocked when you visit.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Riverside 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, Riverside Dog Park is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
backpackWhat to Bring
Fresh water and a bowl
Even parks with water fountains can have them out of service. Bring your own to be safe.
Poop bags
Most parks provide them, but don't rely on it. Always come prepared to clean up after your dog.
A towel
Your dog will likely get wet at the water features. Save your car seats with a quick dry-off.
A reflective collar or light-up leash
If you visit near dusk, visibility gear helps you keep track of your dog and stay safe.
High-value treats
Useful for practicing recall in a distracting environment and rewarding good social behavior.
Your dog's favorite toy
A familiar toy can help shy dogs feel more comfortable and give them something to focus on.
