Dog Park Features
Overview
Maxwell Park is a leafy neighborhood hangout where dogs can stroll the paths and relax under tall palms while families enjoy the shaded playground and picnic spots. It’s a mellow, community-focused space rather than a dedicated dog run, ideal for leashed walks and low-key sniffing adventures.
Details
Set on a gentle hillside with majestic palm trees and plenty of shade, Maxwell Park feels like a tucked-away green pocket in East Oakland. Paved paths and grassy areas give dogs room for on-leash walks, while owners can pause at picnic tables or sit near the playground and watch neighborhood life go by. Reviewers frequently mention the clean, kid-friendly environment and appreciate having public restrooms on-site, though they’re occasionally locked outside of busy times. It’s a pleasant everyday park for nearby dog owners looking for a relaxed stroll rather than off-leash play.
