Looking for something pet friendly to do in the Dakota

Crystal Beach -  Burnsville, MN

Crystal Beach - Burnsville, MN

Tucked along scenic Lac Lavon Drive, just a mile south of County Road 42, Crystal Beach is Burnsville’s 24-acre gem where summer vibes are in full swing! With a beautiful unguarded swimming beach, shady spots for lounging, and paddle-powered fun, it’s the perfect place to soak up the sun and let your worries drift away.  Dogs are welcome on-leash throughout the park, and during the warmer months, the outdoor ice rinks become a special off-leash zone (just be sure to keep the gate closed and clean up after your pup).

Hot Sam’s Antiques & Foto Park – Lakeville, MN

Where else can your dog pose next to a giant spaceship, a rusted-out hippie van, and a monstrous shark? Hot Sam’s is part antique shop, part photo playground, and fully fun. Dogs are welcome to roam the outdoor areas (on leash), so get ready for the most delightfully bizarre photo shoot of your life. Instagram gold.

Tucked into 16 wooded acres, this fully fenced dog park feels like a forest retreat just for dogs. It’s a safe spot to let your pup off-leash and let them run, sniff, and socialize. You’ll need a dog park pass to enter, but once you’re in, it’s a whole new world of happy tails and tired paws.

Kelley Park - Apple Valley, MN

If your dog’s idea of a good time includes fresh air, live music, and the smell of hot dog roasting, Kelley Park delivers.
