Ewing Dog Park

About Ewing Dog Park

Ewing Dog Park in Des Moines offers a spacious 8 acres of greenery, featuring large mature oak trees that provide ample shade for both pups and their owners. Reviewers appreciate the natural setting, with tall grass perfect for dogs to run through and plenty of sticks to chase. The park features separate areas for small and large dogs, ensuring safety and fun for all sizes.

While many enjoy the clean, well-maintained surroundings, it’s important to note that a yearly pass is required for entry, which can be inconvenient for occasional visitors. Those looking for a more flexible option for occasional visits may feel let down. However, for regulars, the waste disposal stations and restrooms add practical touches to enhance the experience.

Groups of dogs can often be found enjoying the park together, as one reviewer mentioned a fun day with over a dozen small dogs in their dedicated area. The convenient parking and close proximity to a lovely trail leading to Easter Lake make this park a favorite among locals. Just be prepared for a possible walk back to the entrance if you need to dispose of waste, as the absence of trash cans within the park has been mentioned.
