    "Great dog area but lots of leash restrictions, so not a lot of options for off leash play time. I always come up on at least 2 poops that someone didn’t pick up, hiking trails and sidewalks alike. Traffic is increasingly worse every year due to tourism, lack of public transit and housing growth. "
