Confirmed from Pelham Mill Dog Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Fenced venue for off-leash dogs, plus benches and a water spigot, for running, chasing balls and drinking.

Very nice dog park, clean and fenced in. Not too crowded at all (came on a Sunday afternoon and only 4 dogs there). Great place to let the dogs burn off some energy and run. Clean, and maintained. Water stations for the dogs to drink. Highly recommend.
Max is 10 months old now. We have been to the dog park many times. He always has a great time. We love the place. Needs some TLC. All in all Max (4 mo old Silver Lab) had a good time, for his first dog park. The park is on top of a hill far from the handicap parking, so my wife could not go watch him.
We absolutely love this place! There are two different dog areas. One for small dogs and one for large dogs. They have fresh water and water bowls available for use. My dogs absolutely love it. The gates are unlocked 24/7. Which is perfect for my not so friendly chihuahua. The trails are beautiful as is the water fall.
Cool place for the pup n yourself, easy trail just not the greatest of maintenance. It is truly a trail, narrow. A few rocks to walk on, edge of the river too. Beautiful trees, lots of shade, large swing to sit and relax bs a bench aling the way. Hidden of sorts perfect for a Bible study or self reflection.
