The best dog friendly neighborhoods
in Elgin

Goodale State Park

Just 20 minutes from Elgin, you and your dog can go on a wildlife scavenger hunt in Goodale State Park! While following the park's 1.7-mile trail, see if you can spot some of the most popular animals that call the park home, from herons to snakes to alligators! Your pet must stay on their leash, and it's your responsibility to clean up any messes they try to leave behind. Make sure you bring along plenty of water. After your hike, if your dog is used to being on the water, rent a canoe and head out on the lake located in the park.

Sesquicentennial State Park

While you will need a pass (either daily or annual) to use this bark park, locals insist it's worth it! The bark park in Sesquicentennial State Park is about 30 minutes from Elgin. Nearly two acres are provided for your pooch to have some off-leash fun while playing with their pawesome new pals! Once you and your pup are done at the dog park, head out to explore the rest of the state park. There are three hiking trails in the park. Each trail varies in length and intensity, so there's something for everyone! A leash is required on the trails.

Five Points

Just a thirty-minute drive from Elgin, you and Fido can visit Emily Douglas Dog Park, which is Columbia's only free bark park! This fenced-in, off-leash dog park has plenty of room for your pup to run around and get in their exercise. Water is provided for your pup, but it's on you to bring waste baggies for clean-up. There's plenty of seating for dog moms and dads, as well. After you're done at the bark park, visit one of many dog-friendly restaurants in Five Points. Burger Tavern 77 is a local favorite. The joint dishes up delicious burgers, and Fido can join you on the patio.Keep reading

Earlewood

Columbia's Earlewood neighborhood is home to NOMA Bark Park. The name comes from the park's location on North Main Street. This off-leash bark park is sure to be a ball for your pup! Toys are provided so that your dog can have fun playing tug-o-war with their new friends. During the summer, the park even puts out kiddie pools so that your dog can take a dip to cool off from the heat. A membership or day-pass is required to use this bark park, but that's mostly to ensure all dogs coming in the park are up-to-date on vaccinations! This bark park is about 35 minutes from Elgin.
