Multiple areas for the dogs to play and separate spaces for little dogs
Don’t be fooled at first sight! This dog park has a wonderfully large, gated, grassy area beyond the barked area near the parking lot
Kinda small in the winter, but well maintained

About Riverside Dog Park

Riverside Dog Park in McMinnville is a well-maintained spot where dogs can frolic freely. The park features distinct areas for small and large dogs, with spacious, grassy zones that are perfect for running around—especially in summer when the back area opens up. You’ll find large trees offering shade, alongside picnic tables and benches for human companions to relax while their pups play. Plus, the park is equipped with running water and well-groomed landscaping.

While some reviews mention that the main small dog area can be tough on paws due to the bark chips, the winter section for large dogs is spacious, allowing dogs to romp without feeling cramped. Dog owners appreciate the concrete paths for walking, and good lighting makes evening visits safer during winter months. A port-a-potty is conveniently located near the parking lot, adding to the park’s practical amenities.

It’s not uncommon to find the park a bit quieter at times, but this can be a bonus for dogs that prefer a less crowded environment. Though some visitors note that it may feel small in winter, the overall upkeep keeps both dogs and their humans coming back, especially when the summer grass returns. Whether you’re a local or just passing through McMinnville, Riverside Dog Park is a solid choice for a fun day out with your furry friend.
