Ohlone Park 190 Turquoise Drive, Hercules, CA 94547

"Been coming here for a while now. Mostly on days where is hot out. I love this park due to its big area of shade and obstacles for dogs. Both Small and Big areas are great size for any size dog. Both dog water fountains work great and there’s many benches to sit on. The parking is good too, however it could be bigger."

"Went here from 4pm - 5pm on a Thursday afternoon in the middle of July and it is hot - in the 90 degrees! To be expected in Hercules. This is an okay dog park with lots of room for potential. All enclosed 4’ f nce with two separate area’s for small-medium and medium-big dogs. There are garbage cans, dog waste bag stations (but zero bags available on the big side, luckily I always have them handy), and water fountains for humans and dogs. Saw a few poopies that irresponsible annoying owners did not pick up after their dog. The smaller side is a lot more exposed with only a few sad trees not giving much shade. While the larger side has tons of huge eucalyptus trees. The larger side is covered with eucalyptus leaves and nuts - just fyi eucalyptus is a gastrointestinal irritant and a neurotoxin for dogs. So if your dog likes to munch on random things you’ll have to keep a really good watch over them or avoid this park all together. Wish there was more grass - and in shaded areas because my pup would have loved that. Also wish there were more dogs here!! Not a single soul in sight! The biggest reason I bring her to dog parks is for her to socialize. So this was a bummer in that aspect. No visible bathrooms."

"My dog chases for about an hour before getting exhausted at this park. There's a nice mix of shade and sun. There's water available for the dogs, but be sure to change it out when you get there. Standing water can be dirty."

"Also dog park...wish more people would visit. Side for large dogs & small dogs. People are really nice, sometimes exchanging #s to set up play dates. You have to bring your own bags because dispensers r empty. Very pretty in winter & spring because of pretty green grass."

"Good dog park, but needs more city maintenance. There are dispensers, but NO bags, so you have to bring your own. There are some who don't pick up after their dogs...this is my main pet peeve...also FYI Ohlone Elementary School moved their main entrance from Pheasant Dr to the same side as entrance to dog park on Turquoise...sometimes parents/students cross paths with those of us going into park."
