Badger Mountain Community Park

The people here are worse than the dogs. They’re incredibly rude and inconsiderate. My dog isn’t allowed here because she’s not fixed which is understandable, the people who told me to leave were so rude and their dogs were being aggressive and several people asked them to take their dogs else where but they did not. Dog owners who can’t control their dogs should not he allowed in.

Great dog park. Most experiences have been good. A few bad with aggressive, poorly trained and/​or non-​neutered animals, so a little policing would be great, though outside of requiring individual use contracts not sure how that would happen. Lots of room to run and play.

I’m from out of town and wanted a place to take my dog to run for a little bit, I found Badger Mountain dog park was an off-​leash area so of course I went. What a disappointment, there is a little bit of grass that is not being maintained, 2 or 3 small tree that provide absolutely no shade, a gazebo, 2 benches and no place to deposit the dogs doo that is picked up. Apparently your expected to carry it home with you. There were two border collies when I arrived and shortly four more dogs arrived, three of them being herding dogs and 1 a young Boxer mix. Once the Boxer mix arrived the five herding dogs all decided they were going to herd it. The Boxer mix coward as the other dogs continued their aggression towards him while the owners of tbe 5 herders simply stood and watched. Do they really think this is proper socialization for dogs. I think not and left this park immediately.

I will never go back again.
I had few bad experiences w owners. They do not have common courtesy at all and ignorant. Their dogs were attacking on my two dogs and owners were just watching and laughing. I asked the owners to watch their own dogs but they just said oh, my dogs are just playing. Clearly, they weren’t. Be responsible for your dog’s action. There are poops everywhere too. It’s just so sad that only few irresponsible people making only dog park in Tri Cities down.

Great dog park. Really clean. Lots of open space. Only down side was no real water source.

Absolutely love this place. Amazing dog park where everyone brings their dogs. Great free water park for kids. Nice play ground, nice novice hiking trails, and football and baseball feilds. Something for everyone here. Love this place!

DOG PARK!!!
Our dog absolutely LOVES her trips to the dog park here. We take her every Saturday and Sunday. She gets to socialize with other dogs her size (she’s a low rider) and she gets a lot of open space to run. The portion of the park dedicated to dogs is 3 acres and 1 of those acres is a separate fenced area for small and shy dogs.
The City of Richland maintains the dog park as well as the rest of the park’s property. It’s all nicely kept. The other municipalities could learn a lot from this place and replicate in their respective areas. Though, I think our dog would miss the car ride to the park. :)

I love this place! So green and clean!
I’ve yet to make it up to the dog park, but the trails there are super fun.
They have a water area for kids to play in, baseball fields, soccer fields, hiking trails, an off leash dog park and places to have a BBQ.
Cute area, I love taking my dog and spending a few hours here on my day off.

Wow. The water stuff is cool! The dog park is cool! The playground equipment is cool!
More parks should be like this one! It is great when communities do stuff for kids, since kids don’t get to vote and often get overlooked. Saw a little snack shack there too, so you could concievably stay here a good portion of the day. Park is clean and well kept, and just a place that makes you wanna be a kid again yourself.

My main reason for going here is the dog park. It is a large fenced area where lots of dogs come to play. People here are really friendly and I haven’t met any out of control dogs. There are lots of tennis balls and water dishes as well as some picnic tables. Plus a mud puddle that my dog seems especially fond of.
The rest of the park is quite large with soccer fields, baseball fields, and basketball courts as well as a playground and BBQ areas. There are walking trails as well and just seems like a nice place to spend a Saturday.
