Dog Policy
Dogs not permitted at Pigeon Creek Park when snow conditions are right for cross country skiing and sledding. When conditions are so that you can walk your dog at this park, we ask that you take your pet on designated trails only, keep them on ten foot leashes and keep them under your control. Owners must clean up after their pet and dispose of waste in a trash receptacle. Dogs are not permitted in buildings, restrooms, picnic shelters, or as posted. Leader dogs for persons with disabilities are permitted in all areas at all times. Recognizing that most dogs enjoy running and playing freely, Ottawa County Open Space Lands allow dogs year – round off leash.
