    This park is part of a 249 parcel of land that is split into east and west sides of Greynold's Park. In ancient times, the Tequesta used the river for travel and in the 1800's, the Seminoles set up a trading post to service early Miami settlers. Later on the land was a limestone quarry. Dedicated in 1936, Greynold's is Miami's second oldest park. It was created by the Civilian Conservation Corps. which was part of Roosevelt's New Deal Program that was set up to provide work for Americans who were suffering from the Great Depression. The limestone from the quarry was used for the buildings in the park. Greynold's is one on my favorite parks in Miami. I have been to the west side but this was my first time visiting the east end. The park has a lot of beautiful trees which support the local bird population. As I was walking around I saw a red shouldered hawk swoop down for a meal. Park amenities in this part of the park include a restroom, dog park, and kayak launch. There is a vendor renting kayaks or bring your own. You can paddle up the Oleta River to the intracoastal, north into Dumbfoundling Bay and back to the launch. It is a 6-7 mile loop with nice scenery for most of the paddle. The only thing I dislike about Greynold's park is they charge $7 for parking on weekends. Parks are funded by tax payers so I am used to parking for free. Greynold's started charging for parking over a year ago and I am not sure why North Miami felt they needed to start doing that. Possibly they were trying to be like nearby Oleta River Park which also has kayak rentals and charges a similar fee for entrance to the park.

    Very clean and quiet park. Love that they have a option to rent a paddle board without having to check in with a human. Has an easy access to the water. Great way to just get away on the water and get exercise as well. Also has a dog park and pavilion for small get together.

    I think the main thing to do here is kayak. The kayak rental place is awesome. Everything is clean and maintained. The staff is awesome. The kayak "trail" is fun. The trail they recommend has abandoned buildings (pictured) you can explore. You have to climb through the mangroves to get to them, and that's also kind of cool. But hard - wear sneakers and don't take kids if you choose to do that!

    It's a great little park to launch your kayaks or to rent some from Kayak305 that is right next door. They also have a good dog park!

    Nice place to take your dogs, as there is respective spaces for small dogs and large dogs. There are restrooms and dog waste bags available throughout as well as water fountain for the dogs. The park includes a large field, where children and grow- up can play ball or run. The park is clean, have benches and bbq area on the water.

    This part of Greynolds Park is on the Oleta river and has a nice dog park. Some times it is empty and I don't like leaving my Jeep while paddle boarding. It is separated from the main part of Greynolds park on the other side of Biscayne Blvd. There is access to get a canoe, kayak or paddle board into the water. The rentals are no longer here. At the Blue marlin restaurant 2400 ne 163st they have rentals and a much better launching beach.

    Ooooof! Have been here in the past and had a decent time, but currently the dog park is teeming with mosquitos. I paid a whopping $7 for parking, and only stayed 10 minutes. There's a fire hydrant leaking in the small dog run, leading to a lot of standing water, and the mosquitos went for both me and my dog. I've never ever seen mosquitos so voracious. Steer clear for the time being!

    Great place for dogs, and friendly people! Like anywhere in miami, dont leave valuables in clear view in your car. The parking lot is clearly visible from the dog-play area, the soccer field, and the picnic shelter.

    Low-key park in the city and on Oleta River. Parking is always easy and there’s even a dog park. The main allure for me is the launching area for paddle boards and kayaks and the fact that PADL has a station there.

    A nice park for your dog. One drawback was lots of standing water after a rain shower.

    Nice park but people don't keep their dog leashed at all

    Gem of a park, huge and well maintained, cheap parking rates and plenty of parking available, best place to take your dog to run free, lol exercise and play with other dogs. Big dog and small dog fenced areas separate so little dogs don’t get ran over by speeding big dogs lol, nice to come here are socialize with other dog people.I have great memories with my poochies here.

    Pretty layout and pretty scenery but plenty mosquitoes by being so close to the creek. They need to get rid of some more weeds to keep the bugs away. Nice divided big dog / small dog enclosures. This time they had new locks that are much safer too.

  • 5/5 Marc V. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place to bring your dog fenced-in areas for both small and large dogs 🐶

    Love the Bark Park but people still ignore the no pit bull policy. I'm an overall dog lover but when I saw a pit bull latch on the a small pup and the screams of the owner it was scary.

    There's a nice dog park that I've frequented on many occasions. Great space for pups to run free. Completely fenced in. Nice open area for pups and their humans to play fetch. I've launched my kayak here. Great hidden park to enjoy.

    The dog park is excellent! But the parking lot sucks!!! We have to pay for parking, and the price is when you are heading back to your car, you find your windows broken and stolen your belongings. And these incidents have frequently been happening. The city must have more surveillance in the area or remove the pay for parking.

    The park ranger was very rude!!! Keep in mind the situation happened around 5:00pm- 5:30pm. On google it states that the park closes at 6:30 pm unfortunately, that’s a lie. We were set up with our own barbecue and in the middle on cooking some food and the ranger comes in saying that we need to pack up immediately. We tried explaining in the nicest way that we saw that the park closed a bit later, she heard no reason and told us to go. We then asked if we could finished cooking what was on the grill and we will leave, she did not agree. The curious thing was that there was more people around with their dogs and none were pressured as hard as us to leave. In fact, the other people that were cooking we not told to leave and the ranger didn’t even bother to get out of the car to speak to them. Not to mention this was my nephews little birthday get together, completely ruined his day.
