11 months agoThe dogs loved this place. Lots of sights & smells for humans & dogs alike. Great to have such a large off-leash area that can really allow the dogs to have some fun!

6 months agoHuge park! And such a nice walk amongst the trees. Didn’t even feel like we were at a dog park. Just wish there were rubbish bins around as we carried our doggy bag for most of the walk.

a year agoDon't blindly press 'Start' to follow the maps directions!!! Just input 'Longmile Road' and follow that. The maps directions took me to a cul-de-sac one street over. I feel like it assumed I was a crow. The actual place is awesome, perfect sensory adventure for my dog. Any excuse to be in the Redwoods.
