The dog park is a partnership between the Friends of Johnson City Dog Park Association and the City of Johnson City Parks and Recreation Department. It covers 1.6 acres of land and is located near the top of the park accessed by Huffine Road. The dog park is fenced in with a keyless entry system for members-only access.
Johnson City is marked as a beautiful mountain town with a charismatic community. Willow Springs embodies both of these themes within the park. It has become one of our favorite spots to spend the day. We hope to see you there.
