- Off-Leash Allowed
- Puppy-Friendly
- Separate Areas for Small & Large Dogs
- Large Running Area
Fenced and off-leash, this Waukegan exercise area splits into separate sections for small and large dogs, making it puppy-friendly and less chaotic than a single shared space. Water fountains serve both dogs and owners, and the obstacle course and play equipment give active dogs something to do beyond just running laps. The grassy layout and open feel make it a solid community hangout.
