The best dog friendly neighborhoods
in Carpentersville

Spring Avenue Southeast

About 30 miles from Carpentersville, in East Glen Ellyn, Illinois, is the Spring Avenue Dog Park. It's about a 45-minute drive to get here, and you and your dog will both enjoy this community park. This fenced-in, off-leash park doesn't have separate sections for different sizes of dogs, but there's lots of room for all dogs to play. There is a gated entry system at the park, and you'll need a key card to swipe in. You can get access to the park by paying a small yearly fee: $30 for residents and $75 for non-residents. Within the park, you'll find waste clean-up materials, picnic tables, and benches for your convenience.

Winston Knolls

Hoffman Estates is just 9.5 miles or a 15-minute drive from Carpentersville. In the Winston Knolls area of town, you'll find Bo's Run Dog Park. This two-acre dog park is a pawpular place, and visitors love that it has separate sections for big dogs as well as another for small dogs and puppies. You will need to pay a small yearly fee if you plan to use the park regularly or obtain a day pass if you're just passing through. Within the park, there is water and water bowls, as well as agility equipment that dogs have a blast playing on.

N Fairfield

Half an hour's drive gets you and Fido to the Lakewood Dog Park, which is part of the LakeCounty Forest Preserves in Wauconda, Illinois. This 68-acre dog park is entirely fenced-in and full of opportunities for your dog to socialize and exercise. The different areas of this massive park include a swimming spot, grassy fields, walking paths, and meadows. There is also a water pump, shade structures, and bathrooms at this park, which human visitors really appreciate. Like most Illinois dog parks, you'll need an annual or daily permit to access this park, and that permit gives you access to all four of the Lake County Forest Preserves dog parks.

East Glendale Heights
