    Yeah, I'm sorry, but this place is subpar as a dog park. There are many, many issues with the Baker Park Dog Park. 1. If the city of Naples is so adamant about having dogs pre-register to be able to go into the park, then they need to appoint someone to enforce the rules. 10 week old puppies are being brought inside the park, 10 pound dogs are being brought into the large dog area, and people are bringing dog aggressive dogs in on a leash into the fenced-in area. All of these violations go against what's written on the waiver that is required to be signed before you actually bring your dog into the park. I think the biggest violation is that people are bringing dogs in without the pre-approved dog tag that is required to be on every dog that's in the fenced-in area of the park. But if there are no signs listed on the fence or someone there to enforce that, people are just going to freely bring their dogs in unregistered ahead of time. 2. The wood chips and the mulch are an extremely bad idea because unlike grass, urine soaks into the mulch and the wood chips, leaving the area smelling pungent of dog pee. The only thing that would really wash that out is a good rain but of course, rain will cause everything to be soggy and muddy because more than 80% of the fenced-in area is dirt and mulch. 3. The large dog area and the small dog area share a fence that separates them. There are many large dog breeds that are prey driven so when they see a small dog running next to their side of the fence, this will cause digging and biting through the fence. The city of Naples either needs to erect a second fence to allow a space in between or some kind of a tarp so that the dogs cannot see each other. What prompted me to write this review is the fact that a small dog was digging under his side of the fence and sticking his paws through the chain-link, and a larger dog bit down on the small dog's paw and wouldn't let go causing the small dog to yipe and scream. And then of course, both owners begin yelling through the fence, blaming each other.

    So much fun as always when we come here. Our neighbor actually is the one who took us here the first time and we absolutely enjoy it now. This last time was a 2-hour trip! Thanks, for the amazing dog park and all the extras it comes with! Swimming pool for doggies, tennis balls, benches, fans, running area, water fountains for both dogs and humans, and a hose to easy your doggy off afterwards

    Starla loved Naples dog park! She patrolled the perimeter apparently in search of a way out, but decided she liked it and would stay for awhile. Great facility with a separate space for dogs larger than 30lbs. Water fountains for both pups and people! Convenient parking!

    Love this place so much!!! I can say that it made me less stressed and it was something both Dart and I looked forward to! We are both happier and healthier for it! Also, always watch your dogs and be accountable for the good and bad that your Doggo is apart of. Other than that, amazing dog park!

    Drinking fountains for dogs and people available. Shaded area with benches. Lots of tennis balls. Generally friendly dog owners. Parking is limited. No nighttime lighting. Hose available to wash dog after playing. Two separate fenced areas for small and big dogs. Good side walks into park. Can be muddy especially in summer. Always bring bug spray, towel, and dog shampoo.

    We love Bailey Tobin's big dog run. The park is kept nice and clean. There's lots of room to run and play, lots of shade when you want to cool down and the dog water fountains are always nice and clean. There's a small dog park for the smaller fur babies too!

    This is a nice dog park to bring your dogs to. Beware though, people tend to be very confrontational here.

    MUST LOVE DOGS. How many romcoms I have read where the affection connector are dogs, I lost track of it. Then, I am also a romcom writer and reader so, with that in mind I think Baker Dog Park is not only a great for your doggies to have fun but also a place where us humans can be as free of spirit as our beloved four legged. We are there fr our dogs to have fun and that is the main priority. The rest are circumstances and life is full of them. Let's embrace them. This past Saturday a young man with his daughter approach, the group I was hanging out, and ask for signatures for his council postulation. I strongly think different to him, but I liked that he respectfully looked for his community support. We are a community, red Blue and White, and our doggies are a perfect example. As I say, go embrace it.

    It was a great experience for our dog Dixie! She loved it and I am looking forward to take her there again when I have a chance!

    It's so nice here. Very clean and safe area the fur babies can run around and play in. Separate sections for the bigs and littles.

    Our dogs enjoyed it. Registration was free and easy. Just show your vax info to agent at the park headquarters and they will issue tags

  • 5/5 Stephanie T. 11 months ago on Google
    I bring my 2 dogs here every weekend. The park is VERY nice. There's 2 dog play areas. 1 for big dogs & 1 for small dogs. Each area has plenty of room to run & play with a covered, cooling concrete pavilion equipped with benches & water fountains. Each area also has fountains for our fur friends with a self draining bowl so you get a fresh bowl of cold water everytime. The park goers are very kind & the dogs are very well behaved.

    Really well taken care of park. Mulched so very easy to clean up after your pup.

  • 1/5 James H. 1 year ago on Google
    Dog park is closed for 2 days for maintenance. Not posted until you get there. Website says nothing about being closed additionally not a single person around doing maintenance

    Hose for washing dogs after they play is very helpful. Small dog area is usually more crowded than large dog area. Parking is free, but limited. No public restrooms. Way cleaner than the dog park in North Naples. More grass in the big dog area would be great. Flooding of dog areas is a problem, especially in summer. Poorly planned drainage of dog wash area and dog water fountains is always a problem. Nice clean water available from people water fountain under the covered area near picnic tables.

    My dog loves it and doing dog things. They’re thoughtful enough to have a water fountain for dogs and have tons of tennis balls for them to play with shade as well for dogs to lay down. Lots of space for bigger dogs as well. Enough people go there so your dog doesn’t get lonely

  • 4/5 Amy S. 2 years ago on Google
    The large dog park has enough space for your pup to run. It doesn't have enough seating for pup parents. It does. Ot provide enough shade for the pups during late spring and summer. Some of the humans do not pay attention to their aggressive pups so.be vigilant.

πŸ‘ Great hike! I recommend in the summer because you're going to get wet, most of the hike is through the river/creek. I took my dog, younger children, and my mom. This is an adventure for everyone in the family, all ages!
