About the Park
Swaney Pointe K-9 Park occupies four acres inside Ramsey Creek Park on Nantz Road in Cornelius, right on the shores of Lake Norman north of Charlotte. The fully fenced run has fresh running water for dogs and shade trees to duck under on hot Piedmont days. Picnic tables give owners a place to settle while dogs roam off-leash. Hours run 7:00 AM to 8:00 PM daily, and admission is free. Its lakeside setting inside a larger park means you can pair off-leash time with a walk along Ramsey Creek Park's waterfront. The generous acreage gives dogs real room to move, which sets it apart from the tighter, single-pen runs common in the area.
