Reviews
"We were traveling through from Vegas to Northern CA and stopped in to find a dog park. Vegas glass some amazing parks for furry friends, but this park beats them all imo! I wish it was closer to our home but we will visit again for sure! It has bathrooms, walking paths, and a HUGE off leash dog area that boasts so many friendly visitors! My 1 yr old Shiba Inu, Wiley, is a handful, and during a 10+ hr car ride, it was about miserable until we stopped here! All 3 dogs ran and played their hearts out, and each had their own fun experience within an hours time. I have never seen such a well run park that hosts dogs and people and animals so elegantly. Other cities should take note of this park and strive to do the same for their communities instead of doing the same old copy-paste requirements for city management."
"We had the opportunity to visit Rancho San Rafael regional park on the Great reno balloon race day. The early morning show was spectacular and we would love to visit again. We also visited Wilbur May museum nearby unexpectedly and we get to experience various regional cultures."
"My family and I had the opportunity to experience the Dragon Lights 2023, which was absolutely amazing for everyone to walk through! San Rafael Park has always had the space and proper flow for this event to be placed. It's was so magical for us, and the kids had a great time with all the props displayed. Hoping this event does not change its location as this was a perfect set-up ❤️."
"Best dog park I've ever seen. Beautiful large grassy park for the kids to play or feed ducks. Awesome walk thru the gardens and old Great Basin Adventure park, which is now a beautiful hike, especially in the spring when it's all in bloom."
