Good to know

Fully fenced with a separate small-dog section; free entry to the bark park itself.
Despite popular claims of a “dog lake,” the official county page lists NO dog-swimming area — the park’s lakes belong to the cable-wakeboard complex, so don’t count on letting your dog swim.
Wide-open Hialeah sun with limited shade — bring water and avoid midday heat on the grass.
