NParks states that dogs are permitted in most parks and park connectors, and lists Lakeside Grove Playground outside its named exclusion networks. Check current signs, notices and park-specific restrictions before visiting.
Useful to know
- Dogs must stay on leash unless current signage marks a designated off-leash area.
- The NParks directory states the park hours as: Open 24 hours.
- Temporary closures and site-specific restrictions can supersede the general NParks dog-access guidance.
