Chattapoochee Dog Park

Great dog park, very clean and all the dogs were very well-​mannered. Perfect for both large and small dogs because they have separate areas for dogs over 30 lbs and under 30 lbs. My pup fell right at the 30 lb mark so we started off in the smaller dog park until she felt comfortable enough to go to the big dog park. The last few times I’ve gone have been on weekend days so there were plenty of playmates for the dogs to go crazy with. Everyone is pretty good about cleaning up after their dogs as well as supervising them while they play. The only downside to the park was that the water fountains were not working (possibly because of wintertime), but fortunately many brought jugs of water for the dogs, so be sure to bring some water, at least until the fountains come back. Also, be aware there are some very large puddles that can form in the wooded area of the small dog park and can equal a very messy pup for the ones that love to splash around.

The park is always clean, and it’s never muddy or dusty because the grounds are very well kept. I love that there’s are large off leash areas for dogs under 30lbs and one for dogs 30lbs+.
The water fountains don’t always work, so I suggest you bring water for your dogs just in case. Otherwise everything is always in tip top shape. Highly recommend this park!

Great little area to take the fur babies. There were others there with their dogs but it wasn’t crazy packed. Benches too for sitting and plenty of trees make this for a cute little Saturday morning/​afternoon. Wish it hadn’t been raining and muddy the day we took our pooch.

I have a very small Yorkie so I am very cautious about taking him to dog parks as every dog in the world is larger than him lol. I found out about this place on this app and decided to try it out as it is not very far from my house and I love it! The small dog area is perfect and everyone there is always friendly and make sure that their dogs are playing nice. My Yorkie, Jackson loves the open space and it is gated well so I do not mind him running around like crazy. I live in a small apartment so it is always a treat for him to have so much open space to play. This has definitely become our little getaway, I just wish I would’ve found out about it earlier in the summer… we love this dog park!

I brought my mutt to this park yesterday for the first time and we both loved it.
The large dog and small dog sections are separated, which is nice, as they don’t go at each other through the fence like I’ve experienced at other parks like Windermere. There is a WORKING water fountain, and some neat rock structures and bridges for training if you’re into that sorta thing. Some areas were a little muddy, but it had rained incessantly the last two days, and I was actually impressed that it wasn’t worse.
The people there were very nice, mostly choosing to interact with one another and pay attention to the behavior of their pups rather than stare down at their phones. So many times I’ve seen inattentive owners who aren’t looking out for what’s going on, which can mean it’s often too late if a few dogs get to scrapping. My PSA for the day– if you’re going to bring your dog to an off-​leash dog park to play with a bunch of strangers, pay attention! If you feel funny about the way another dog is playing with yours, gracefully exit before something goes down.
Anyway, big play area, with open grassy fields and wooded areas and several trash bins. –1 star only for the 2 empty bag dispensers at both entrances.

Nice park just to get away from the normal walking routine. It was our 1^st time and will be a regular visit since we live only 2.5 miles away. Disappointed that the water fountain for the dogs didn’t work. Other than that Zoe had a nice time!

I chose this park based off the reviews alone– my husband and I just moved here from Colorado and have an apartment so I wanted to let my dog roam but didn’t know where. And the reviews didn’t lead us astray! They were right on! This park is incredible and we’ll be going back as long as we live in Georgia! There’s a big dog park and a little dog park– and both have rules and dog weight limits so there’s no guessing on our part. Also each park has an open grassy space, a water feature, dog bowls and water fountains, benches for people, and a forestry area. When we went we were a little anxious of how our dog would react to others because she likes being dominant but even tho there were ⁵⁄₆ other big dogs there were no issues– the other owners were watchful but not upset when dogs wanted to play and run around and chase each other. It was a great experience! Whoever built it really had owners and dogs in mind! I love it!

I brought my two year-​old mini dachshund here for the 1^st time and he loved it! We had so much fun, minus all the mosquito bites I got.
Can’t believe I didn’t know of this place sooner. The small pet area is very large and they have a fountain in the middle of it for pets to cool off.
Although its almost a 30 min drive from my house, I’ll definitely be returning at least once a week.

very great concept! nowadays a lot of people want places where they can take out their dogs! (there needs to be more places like this.
this is definitely like an amusement park for your dog! they have two spacious fenced in areas & they do separate the big dogs from the small ones! they have a water area for your babies to enjoy. they even offer water fountains for them too. they have benches inside the fences so the owners can make friends too :)
I’m very pro dog areas, & I think we definitely need more areas like this. if you haven’t gone yet be sure to come! your dog is going to thank you & after all they deserve it for putting up with us :)

First time taking my dog and she loved it! So many places to explore and some sprinklers so she can cool off. The whole area is just lovely. I was hoping to see that pathway to the river I had read about but I didn’t get to see it. Will be coming back soon.

My dog loves this park. We try to bring her in the evenings when it’s not too hot and there are other dogs to play with.
Lots of natural surrounding for her to explore. It can get a little muddy sometimes (but the dogs love that too). I have noticed some people bring small dogs to the large dog area, so be aware of that.

My dogs love coming to this park, so despite it being out of the way for us, we try to make it out just about every week or two. There are separate areas for large and small dogs, both with a lot of running space, seating for dog parents, and plenty of shade. The small dog park has a small agility course and both have fountains and working sprinklers now that it’s summer. There are usually plenty of doggie bags and the parents are good about cleaning up after their dogs.
As a bonus, there is a trail leading to a creek where the dogs can splash around. Definitely one of our favorite parks!

This park is great. We have 2 small dogs and the area was quite nice. Plenty of shade and seats. We went on a Sunday afternoon and there were plenty of pups to play with. The only problem is that there is a LARGE open hole (about 10″ diameter, for drainage or something). Dogs could easily injury themselves if running along, and if you have a tiny Chi or Yorkie, etc they old easily fall into this hole. A grated cover needs to be placed here. Hopefully the town or county will address this before there are injuries.

After the first of April, the ground fountain and water are supposed to be back on.
There’s always poop bags in the canisters for use (I always recommend if you are going to use one that’s there the next time you are in, put one back for someone else). The grounds are nice for the dogs. Big dog house, ground water fountain, «woodsy» area and slightly slopping grass area. Large and small dog park areas. There’s also restrooms and play ground area outside the dog park. Inside there are benches and tables for people. All in all, fantastic place (when it gets really hot take your dog to the tree line, down the stairs and to the river for a cool off).

So far I’ve been to Pickneyville, Newtown, and Chattapoochee and I recommend Chattapoochee dog park for all dog owners! Zelda is a puppy and all the owners, along with their dogs, are friendly with her. Great place to socialize and rest while your dogs tire themselves out! :)

Love that Duluth added this dog park! Great for small and large dogs. Plus it’s right next to a recreational area and the Chattahoochee River.

parks temporarily closed
visitor warning! (as of today, 8÷12÷14)
signs posted: both dog parks are closed until september 1, 2014
they both look great but were closed after we drove all the way over there… probably to let the grass fill back in.

This is a great dog park. They have 2 fenced in yards. 1 for big dogs and 2. For small dogs. It is next to the golf course and surrounded by trees. They have little bags so you can pick up your dogs stool. Every dog that me and my roommate has brought here absolutely loves it.
They have a small parking lot. However, no one seems to struggle with parking. If you have a dog, you MUST bring him/​her to this park!

This is my new favorite dog park. My husband and I recently moved and were looking for a new place to take our Sadie — and this is the winner. Separate parks for small dogs and big dogs, fenced in areas, a small water park, grass and wood chips — and courteous dog owners who pick up after their poochies. We are definitely fans.

Love this place. My GSD has the best time playing here. Owners are friendly.
