Quota Hideaway Park Dog Off Leash Area

Quota Hideaway Park on Cootamundra Drive is an off-leash-at-all-times park in Mountain Creek, with open grass, plenty of shade trees and one end that looks over the water. The off-leash area itself is open parkland rather than fenced, so it suits dogs with reliable recall.

The rules. Off-leash applies across the exercise area at all times, but your dog must stay under effective voice control since the space is unfenced. Keep dogs out of the fenced children's playground. Pick up after your dog; some bags are provided, though it is worth carrying your own. Check on-site signage for any temporary restrictions before you unclip.

What's there. The park has benches, a day bed and shelters for shade and a rest, a separate fenced playground for kids, and picnic-friendly space. The waterway at one end lets dogs cool off, though as with any open water keep an eye on conditions.

Getting there. The address is Cootamundra Drive, Mountain Creek 4557, easily reached from Kawana Way. Street parking runs along Cootamundra Drive.

Nearby with the dogs. The Brightwater Hotel nearby has a beer garden that has taken dogs, and there are dog-friendly cafes across the wider Mountain Creek and Brightwater area for a follow-up coffee.

Late afternoon is the social peak when local dogs gather to play. For a quieter walk, come early morning. Good for well-mannered dogs with solid recall who enjoy a relaxed off-leash amble.
