Bordered by a cemetery and duck ponds, this small Monterey off-leash park has separate sections for large and small dogs on a dirt and bark surface, with some shade overhead. Cleanliness has been an ongoing issue — there are no waste bags or trash cans provided on-site, and maintenance has been inconsistent. It's worth tempering expectations, especially if you're visiting with a reactive or young dog.
