What visitors mention
This 10,000 square metre fenced off-leash area sits inside Speers Point Park on the Lake Macquarie foreshore, giving dogs a fully enclosed space to run without the lead, right next to the lake path and a strip of dog-friendly cafes.
The rules. The fenced area is off-leash, but everywhere else in Speers Point Park requires a lead. Dogs must be supervised and under effective control at all times, and are not allowed inside the fenced children's playground nearby. Pick up after your dog, bins are provided. Being off-leash outside the designated area can draw a $330 fine, so keep the lead on until you are through the gate.
What's there. Inside the fence there are three agility stations, a water fountain for dogs and owners, and shaded picnic tables and bench seating. The ground is grassed and open, though shade is limited in parts and the surface can turn boggy after heavy rain.
Getting there. The park is at the end of Creek Reserve Road, Speers Point, with ample free parking in the wider Speers Point Park precinct. The closest bus stops are on Main Road, Boolaroo, around a five to ten minute walk away, and the site connects to the Lake Macquarie walking and cycling path network.
Nearby with the dogs. Harry and Lola's on Creek Reserve Road and Table 1 Espresso inside the park are both a short walk from the fence and used to dogs dropping in post-play. For an overnight stay, pet-friendly options are available at Warners Bay and Teralba, a short drive away.

Weekday mornings are the calmest time to visit, especially for a reactive or nervous dog. Weekends and weekday afternoons after 3.30pm bring the biggest crowds, so aim either side of that if you want the run of the place.
