Turkey Hill Road
This neighborhood is home to La Plata’s one off-leash area, Turkey Hill Dog Park. This fun-filled dog park has two separate areas: one for large dogs and one for small or shy dogs. Both areas are fenced in and double-gated, and both have large grassy fields that are perfect for dogs that love sprinting and playing. There’s no water available on-site, so it’s a good idea to bring a water bottle or two for your pup. A few extra waste bags in your pocket might come in handy, too. Your dog will always have a great time when they’re playing at this La Plata dog park!
