Caney Creek Preserve Dog Park
location_onCumming, GA
Trail access sets this Forsyth County park apart: the fully fenced off-leash area sits near Caney Creek Preserve's walking trails and the creek itself, so you can pair a hike with fenced play time. Separate sections for small and large dogs cut down on mismatched roughhousing, and canine water fountains, benches, and waste stations cover the basics. The address is 2755 Caney Road, on the county's south end near the Alpharetta line. It's free, open daily from 6 a.m. to 9:30 p.m., and details are posted on the Forsyth County Parks website. Bring a leash for the walk in — off-leash rules apply only inside the fence.
Windermere Park Dog Park

On Windermere Parkway in south Forsyth County, this fully fenced off-leash park gives Cumming dogs room to run without leash-law worries. Separate small-dog and large-dog areas keep playtime matched by size, and water access plus fountains and spigots help on humid Georgia afternoons. Shaded areas and benches give owners a place to sit while dogs work off energy, and waste bags and receptacles are stocked on site. The park is free to use, with listed hours of 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily. The 30041 zip code puts it close to the surrounding Windermere neighborhoods, so for many nearby residents a visit is a quick trip rather than a cross-town drive.
Coal Mountain Dog Park

Synthetic turf instead of mud is the headline at Coal Mountain Dog Park, a fully fenced, free off-leash park at 4060 County Way in northern Forsyth County. Built features go well beyond the average dog run: a climbing boulder, a tunnel, and a dog ramp give athletic dogs something to work on, while separate small-dog and large-dog areas sort the play groups. Dog water fountains, benches, sunshades, wooded and shaded areas, restrooms, and waste bags round out the amenities, and a monument honoring service dogs stands on the grounds. Hours run 6 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. daily, and Forsyth County Parks posts updates on its website.
