Be sure to check out the relocated Hamilton Mansion or you've missed the main attraction . Great views from above. Night hours have some undesirables. Day offers lots of sun. There is FINALLY a dogrun

Lots of stairs. A great place to walk, read, chat, see your neighbors. But watch out for the birds! And don't sit under branches... Just saying.

Great dog run. Like all runs almost all of the dogs that come are nice, well-behaved and playful. Avoid going after it rains (the smells that rise from the ground...whew!). Good shaded areas. - Akiko Bombita
