Fort Belvoir Dog Park

It's a nice little park with grass, obstacles, and picnic tables. The gates to get in are a bit rickety. The latch isn't made for the barn door style. Big dogs may find the space a bit small with no good area for a run or long toss. Small dogs can fit under the outer gate of the man trap - I saw it happen. It's a good thing the area wasn't busy. Bring your own water.

Nice little area near the water. Very friendly people, even friendlier dogs!
Come down and visit, my doggo would love to meet you.

Love the park, the families and dogs who come to play with my 7mo Lab puppy. When the fence needed repair, André and Allysa did a great job! Thanks!

It is a large enough area for all size dogs to play in. They even have some hurdles inside the park if you want to exercise or train your dog. For the dog owners a few picnic tables are set up while your dogs play. They either replaced or painted the hole fence since the last time I took my 3 dogs there.
The only negative thing I would have to commend on is that not all dog owners clean up after there pets so it's good look on the ground every now and then to avoid stepping into something unfavorable.

PRO: 1. Not crowded; ours was the only dog there on a warm sunny afternoon in winter. 2. There are several tables with trees/shade, 3. Waste bins and plastic bags are available. 3. Pretty water-view setting across from the Potomac River's Accotink Bay. CON: 1. Spent first 20 minutes picking up half a dozen piles of poop others had left/missed so our dog would not be tempted to roll in it. 2. Ramshackle fence leans drunkenly around the park -- we tested it in several spots to make sure it would not immediately fail. 3. Maintenance is needed to fill several large holes that could be a safety hazard.

Good dog park next to the lake. Great views and it was clean.

Watch out. Keep an eye on your little pups. This area has eagles. When we brought our little pup out there, a couple of the eagle came closer for a better look.
