There are 3 different fenced areas here. One specifically for small dogs and 2 for any kind. All the areas are large enough for the dogs to run and not be crowded. Theres running water here all year round and people generally keep kiddie pools for the dogs to cool off in on either side of the park. There are also usually bags in the bag stations in case you forget. The only reason its not 5 stars is because I wish it had more shade and, like every dog park Ive been to, theres poop lying around (although there does seem to be slightly less here than elsewhere).

So many cute dogs with ancient souls. Many gather to spill secrets at night, are you one of them?

Theres nothing RUFF about this dog park! It was my first time bringing my pup to a dog park & everyone (pups & humans) were very welcoming. Its an Incredibly big space with 3 separate fenced areas which provide an environment where pups & people can relax & just enjoy the park. One of the areas is designated small dogs only & 2 are for all dogs over 35lbs. Most people bring their dogs into the largest fenced area, but if 2 dogs arent getting along or maybe a persons pup is anxious around the other dogs, they can be easily separated yet still enjoy the benefits of the dog park. Definitely gonna go back for another afternoon of playing soon.

My dog loves this park, lots of dogs and its very big. Needs more trees and its hard to find parking sometimes.

Awesome park! Everyone had really friendly dogs and the people were nice too. I could see how it could get muddy but wasnt a problem for me and my crew.

Great park. Good size area and 25 pound and under area for the small dogs. I like it. Not enough shaded sitting area for the humans though.

This park is great, whether you have doggie friends or have kiddos!

Its good dog park. But the amount of people who think they own it and try to boss other people around can bug off.

Review №22

Great park with good people and socialized dogs. Having to large dog areas and a small dog area is wonderful so you dont have to worry about your little dog getting hurt.People are friendly and pick up after their dogs so you probably wont be stepping in poo.

Huge park, very well maintained. Three separate areas, one of which is specific to small dogs.

SS
Review №24

Its a good dog park with a separate small dog enclosure. Sure you have some dog owners that are all about socializing and never mind or pick up after their dogs. But most people and dogs are pretty good! Once they quit flooding it to get the grass to grow it will be even better.

The dog park is a great place to let your dog off the leash and get some exercise. Clean safe place. Looks to be well taken care of, grass mowed, fenced play areas.

Amazon gets all of the heat for being the worst dog park in town but I’ve seen way more dog fights at candlelight. I’ve also never seen people get into a fight anywhere else. It’s great that they added a small dog side but it’s still not a safe place to bring pups

Candlelight has a dog park and kids playground, and plenty of space for everyone The dog park has a designated area for small dogs, another for big ones and an area for mingling. Since I have a little squirt and a husky mix, we get the best of all worlds! The humans here are kind and friendly too, I always enjoy visits to Candlelight Park.

Seems like all dog parks offer a little something different at each one. But they all have one thing in common. Dogs love to smell everything! And whats better than a familiar smell to a dog? A bunch of New Smells. ! So go visit all the difference in our dog parks. After all. Its for our best friends.

This might be a wonderful park and dog park.But not for our family, when crossing Royal from the Thorne Dr side to the dog part side, my daughter was hit by a car and sustained several broken bones and had to have a huge, long surgery to place a titanium rod and 10 screws. Her shoulder blade and a piece of her pelvic bone were broken and she also punctured her lung and has air trapped between her lung and shoulder. Our other daughter who was walking across with her and saw every gorry detail, she was emotionally effected and is very shaken and has anxiety over all of the accident.Im telling all of this, because there NEEDS to be a flashing light at this crosswalk.

Review №36

Great people, lots of friendly dogs. Happy with how they dealt with the creation of a small-dogs-only area. I have large unaggressive dogs, but I understand that it can be scary to have a tiny little friend running around with dogs 7 or 8 times their size. Ive never met someone there that wasnt friendly.

Love this dog park. There are a total of 3 fenced areas, one designated for small dogs. Stays pretty dry and theres plenty of room for all the dogs to run and play.

Excellent park! My old boi loves it, the other people here seem super friendly and the grounds are very well maintained. Also, theres a bonus, fenced off area for even more space if the main area is full. There are usually bags, but bring your own just in case.

Nice little park with playground and connected dog park that is actually pretty large AND FENCED IN. Adequate street parking, as well. Good place to pick blackberries in the summer. The playground area has a few dedicated patches that provide a good amount for kids to pick over.

Candlelight Park is a dog park. If children feel comfortable around dogs then they should come. Also this park is fenced in. I have driven past this park but not to use it.

Its a very nice park. Though people do need to understand there is three different dog parks there. Please do not bring your small or teacup size dogs into the big dog park and complain that they get stepped on or sat on.

It needs trees, big trees. And less mud. And fencing. But its fenced with grass so it serves its purpose.

Solid Dog Park. Only drawback is how long it stays wet. Drainage seems to be an issue. Clean and people always donate bags for waste. Thanks to everyone who keeps it nice.

First time to this delightful dog park, in the Danebo area of Eugene! Nice and grassy, we even sat on the grass, while throwing ball and frisbee for our dogs. I definitely wouldnt do that at Alton Baker dog park, where we usually go.

They seem to keep the dog park clean only problem is its to close to the playground... people takethere dogs that people cant pet to the playground instead of the dog park..but thats the only bad thing

The dog park isnt taken care of. Poo all over the place and the patches of muddy water dont help. Not a good dog park. Go to Amazon or alton baker.

This park is close to home and has been very well maintained over the years thanks to our excellent city parks system. Playground, basketball hoops, soccer field, tables and a dog park are all located at Candlelight Park.

Its a good size dog park split into two different Gates. There is no size recommendation from one side versus the other side. Most people here are very very friendly and pretty responsible of their dogs.

Wonderful, spacious dog park. No trees for shelter, or to block long runs when playing fetch. Can be very muddy - wear your boots. Dogs dont mind the mud.
