Rice Creek Off-Leash Dog Area - Dog park in Shoreview - 5959 Lexington Ave N, USA

My favorite off leash dog park in the north metro area. Dogs and their humans have plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the outdoors in a safe 13 acre fully fenced area. There is a half mile sandy dirt track to walk. There are also multiple off shoot trails for more exploration. A newly added separately fenced small dog area is available, too. It is about 1/2 an acre in size. Although all well-behaved dogs are welcome in the larger park area.

Big beautiful dog park. Very sandy in some places so it doesn't get as muddy. Water stations throughout. Currently as of June 2023 they are building a new gate system and adding a small dog area.

This park is not the biggest dog park in the area, you have to do a few laps to get an adequate amount of exercise for a moderately energetic dog. What this park lacks in size, it makes up for in friendliness. Rice Creek has hands down the nicest and most involved dog owners out of any park in the state.

Large open space,grasslands,prairie,sand trails,many off trails, seperate area for sm dogs. Picnic benches w/water for dogs thru-out.I have two dogs who just love to go run free and play with other happy dogs🐕😀free

Clean & well kept park! They keep it well stocked with extra poop bags & water. The dog owners here are also great and respectful, I have never had any issues with other dogs while here. The only issue that I've had is it (obliviously) get super muddy occasionally.

Awesome place to bring our spoiled rotten puppers!! He loves it anytime he can run around off his leash!! These dog trails are well taken care of with several watering stations throughout the park. We have an adorable 6 pound Chihuahua Terrier mix who thinks he's a gigantic guard dog & we've never had any problems with any of the other breeds cruising around at this park at all. To sum it up if you like to spoil your pooch like we do this is a great place to let em off their leash & sniff around!! We try to bring a gallon of fresh water with us for the watering stations when we bring him, it's a good use it as you need it but it's there because of people who bring it for the dogs, it's not a must but we try to when we can. No better park for off leash dog parks in the twin cities!!

We love coming here. This place has so much space for our dog to just run. And our 2 year old also likes to come and run with our dog and meet new ones. Everyone we have met here has been so nice and friendly

Really beautiful dog park out in Shoreview. It's pretty much a giant circle, most people just go around a few laps while packs of puppers and doggos run around them. In the warmer months it's sand trails with marshy surroundings, in winter the trial is lightly groomed(I think). It's often busy, but there's so much land its not hard to be socially distanced and still enjoy yourself. Word to the wise, there are many points where your dogs can duck down and get out of view (ditches, shrubery, etc.) It is fenced in, but still vast.
