Wynetka Ponds Bark Park
About the Park
Wynetka Ponds Bark Park features two large separate areas (rotated for maintenance) with plenty of space for dogs to run and play. Amenities include working water fountains, a covered pavilion with picnic tables, benches, and waste stations. The park can become muddy after rain and has dirt in drier conditions, though maintenance efforts are ongoing. A scenic walking trail with a small pond provides additional exercise beyond the enclosed areas.
