The best dog friendly neighborhoods
in Lakeville

Deer Park

In the Deer Park neighborhood of Lakeside, dogs are spoiled with the many exciting places to walk and explore. This neighborhood provides access to the massive Murphy-Hanrehan Park Reserve which offers trails through lush forests, and along rolling terrain and glacial ridges. Dogs must be leashed and picked up after on these trails. However, in the center of the park, you’ll find the Murphy-Hanrehan Dog Park for some glorious off-leash freedom! Your pup can play and socialize in the 3 acre fenced in area. You will need to bring waste bags and water for your dog. In this neighborhood, you’ll also find the second largest lake in town, Orchard Lake. This pristine lake has a small park and beach along its shore, Orchard Lake Beach, and leashed dogs are welcome to join in on the fun. There are restrooms available, and even canoe rentals. So bring along the doggy life jacket!

Antlers Park

In the neighborhood of Antlers Park, you’ll find the beautiful Lake Marion and the parks along its shore, including Lakeville’s own Ritter Farm Dog Park. There is a 4 acre off-leash area, and many trails in the surrounding park. Dogs must be leashed when they’re not in the fenced in area. Waste bags and water are provided, just don’t forget the toys! The namesake park, Antlers Park, is friendly to leashed dogs as long as they’re picked up after. This park is located on the east side of Lake Marion, and it even has a small beach.

In the south end of Argonne, you’ll find the 27 acre Ipava Greenway, which features walking and biking trails, and a conservation area that’s great for wildlife watching! None of these areas are designated dog parks, so you’ll need to keep your dog leashed and pick up after him. After working up an appetite, head over to Erbert and Gerbert’s!
