in Belvidere

Cherry Valley

Cherry Valley is a small independent community closely connected to the eastern border of Rockford, about 40 minutes from Belvidere. There are plenty of green parks and open spaces to enjoy a calm walk with a pooch. However, the best place for active mutts is Eliot Dog Park at South Lyford Road. It’s well-known among locals as a pawesome doggy spot! This is a membership-only park; however, you can also get a daily pass if you want to try things out or if you're just passing through. The park has two separate sections, tons of grass, and a huge mud hole where Fido can get his paws dirty!

Harlem

Located in the northwesternmost corner of Loves Park in Illinois, Harlem is a mixed-use neighborhood with a variety of amenities. The heart of the neighborhood is set around the intersection of Harlem and Forest Hills Road and features a well-developed commercial area, cafes, and cultural venues. Just a skip and a hop away is Rock Cut State Park, a huge recreation spot with walking trails and thrilling marina activities. But the best doggy experience can be found in Canine Corners! This is a designated dog park with two beautiful and spacious off-leash sections. There's no better place to make new friends! A daily pass is also available, as well as a non-resident membership.
