We love Ruff!! Such a great place to relax, hang out with friends, or join the dogs on the turf and throw some tennis balls. Having everything electronic makes it smooth for “check-ins” and is a great feature. The rufferies are very attentive and loving to all the pups. They work hard to keep the areas clean and water bowls full. On hot days they will bring out a “pool” for the dogs to play in. I love all the activities Ruff goes out of their way to provide (trivia nights, live music, pictures with the grinch, painting pumpkins, etc). The food options aren’t anything special, but we don’t come here for the food. I do hope they continue to add more shaded areas on the turf but for the cost you absolutely can’t beat it!!
We love coming to Ruff! The rufferies are very attentive to all of the dogs. Our dog always is so excited to come see all of her 4 legged and 2 legged friends and goes home exhausted.

Absolutely adorable! All the dogs were having a wonderful time. The staff is very on top of pet and owner safety. The food is surprisingly yummy and reasonably priced. The soft pretzel with beer cheese was everything I wanted it to be. Good choice of drinks, including lots of local options. 10/10 your dog will love it!
Toilets: Super clean and well maintained. You will absolutely catch a pup patiently waiting for their parent to come out lol
Great social place for dogs and humans alike! This is Gidget a block from “the club”;)
I love it here! I know it's safe for my dog to run around and socialize!

This is a curated dog park that serves alcohol. People can come and go, but dogs are *members only*, which means you have to provide documentation of vaccines. Go to the webpage first and sign your dog up *first.* Day passes for dogs are $10, and monthly is $40 (as of this post). That's a great deal for what they provide. The clientele and staff are awesome, and most of the dogs are very well behaved. Aggressive dogs are not allowed.

I like this place. Very friendly staff. Not pushy, food and pizza is very worth the wait. Areas for the humans to stay and not get hot. Downside, dogs may jump onto your table and try to steal your food, prepare for that.. (my pizza 😔)
Parking: Not the driver but there seems to be about 10-12 spots.
Kid-friendliness: Kids can sit down and the dogs will simply (usually) come to them, fun for everyone.

Been going for over a year with older lab , recently got a puppy , we waited the recommended 16 weeks from the vet before bringing our newest pup, puppy shots verified with the vet everyone agreed after 16 weeks he’d be set for dog park. Paid and checked in 5 minutes later an employee informed us that they wanted him to be 4 months old (technically he will be 4 months in two days) and we needed to leave. Factoring the fact that July is a longer month we’re really splitting hairs especially considering his final shots were two weeks ago. We signed a liability waiver, my family is in the dog kennel business, asking us to leave served zero purpose for the health and safety of our pup. Poor explanation, workers were apologetic but manager informed us and immediately walked away. I understand the concern but very poor customer service from management

I absolutely love this place it puts all other dog parks to shame! It is definitely a canine club.
The staff is great. There are bathrooms with running water. And a bar with a great selection. Turf. Picnic tables. The online membership and profile ensures the dogs present are up to date on vaccines and dogs with a bad track record (ie. agression, fighting) are kept out which gives me great peace of mind as a dog mom.
I can stay here all day. Wish I lived closer to justify a membership. But I visit about once a month. Highly recommend.

Doesn’t answer the phone, does not post hours, closes in the summer because it’s hot when it’s summer, but still makes you pay full dues, unprofessional staff

Worst organization I've ever seen, rude, no clarity with events, and denied my service dog entry due to the need to "make a profile" which was never stated

Had a reservation wife sent in paperwork for everything up to date from vet, greeter said missing one thing that wasn't due until 1 week from now, greeter turns us away, said sorry, I replied sorry we ever came here, been here before twice but now this was a bad experience party of 4. DONT RECOMMEND COMING HERE, THEY DONT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING?
