Winter Dog Park at Twin Lakes Recreation Area

For the months of December, January and February we will have the winter dog park area open to the public at Twin Lakes Recreation Area. The small pond in this area is much shallower than the large lake adjacent to the summer dog park, so the chance of a dog going through the ice and needing assistance is much less likely. March 1st we will open the large lake dog park area again. Please click on the image below for a larger image of the winter changes.
