Essex County Dog Park at Mountain Ave N Caldwell
About the Park
Essex County Dog Park is a spacious off-leash facility with separate sections for small and large dogs. The park features agility equipment, water stations, waste bag dispensers, and access to surrounding trails. Most visitors report a friendly, engaged owner community, though the gravel surface requires ongoing maintenance and enforcement of separation rules is inconsistent.
