Robert L. Nelson Dog Park is a well-maintained, members-only off-leash facility spanning about 4 acres with separate areas for small and large dogs, plus a clean pond for swimming. It features lush grass, an elevated dog wash station with shampoo and hose, a shelter structure, sprinkler system, and trees. Membership requires proof of vaccinations from Animal Aid in Dunlap and costs around $35-40 per year.
Greencroft Goshen Dog Park
location_onGoshen, IN
A complete fence around the off-leash area is the headline feature at Greencroft Goshen Dog Park, which matters if your dog bolts when something catches its eye. The park is free to use and open from sunrise to sunset, the standard schedule for public parks in this part of northern Indiana. Goshen sits in Elkhart County south of the Michigan line, and winters here are long — a securely fenced run lets dogs work off cabin fever safely once the snow piles up. Beyond the fence and off-leash access, posted amenity information is thin, so bring water and waste bags on your first trip and check any posted rules when you arrive.

Choosing the Right Park in Goshen
With 4 dog parks in Goshen, you have options. Consider what matters most to you — fenced areas for off-leash play, water features for hot days, or separate small dog sections. Each park has its own personality and regular crowd, so try a few before settling on your favorite.
Off-Leash Safety
Some parks in Goshen offer fenced enclosures, which are ideal if your dog is still working on recall or if you simply want peace of mind. Always check the fence condition when you arrive — look for gaps at ground level that a determined digger could exploit.
Water Play
Water features are available at parks in the Goshen area. Bring a towel and consider a dog life jacket for deep water areas. After water play, rinse your dog off to remove any bacteria or algae.
Best Times to Visit
Dog parks in Goshen tend to be busiest on weekend mornings and weekday evenings after work. If your dog prefers calmer environments or you're working on training, try visiting during off-peak hours — mid-morning on weekdays is usually the quietest.
What to Bring
Pack fresh water and a collapsible bowl, poop bags, and high-value treats for recall practice. Even if the park provides waste stations, bring your own bags as backup. A basic first aid kit with styptic powder and bandage wrap is smart to keep in your car.
