What People Are Saying

The dog park is really nice, it's comfortable with benches, and a few dog activities; bar jump, tunnel, see saw which my dog did two of three
Our family lived in Lynnwood Gardens from February 1985 until July 1996
It's a dog park. For the most part, it's a clean park, but I would still watch my step. The gate is also not the most secure and I have seen smaller dogs fit beneath the gate

About Lynnewood Gardens Dog Park

Lynnewood Gardens Dog Park in Elkins Park is a spacious area perfect for letting your pup stretch their legs. While it’s technically private property reserved for residents, the park offers a comfortable atmosphere with benches and dog-friendly activities like a bar jump and a tunnel. Though my dog had a great time, he had a brief falling out with the see-saw, which he tried once and promptly rejected. During our visit around 11 AM, the park was pleasantly quiet, allowing for some leisurely playtime.

However, not everything is perfect. Some reviewers noted the lack of separate areas for large and small dogs, which can lead to unfortunate encounters. A couple of dog owners expressed concerns over the security of the gates, as smaller dogs could slip through or even escape the park. This is definitely something to keep in mind if you have a smaller breed.

Despite these drawbacks, the park remains clean, with responsible owners picking up after their pets. There are no public restrooms nearby, but the park is conveniently located across from a swim club, and it shares space with basketball and tennis courts, making it a versatile spot for families. Just be sure to supervise your pup and enjoy the peaceful surroundings!
