Broadway Dog Park: Ann Arbor Off-Leash by the Huron

📍 Open in Google Maps

Broadway Dog Park sits just north of downtown Ann Arbor along the Huron River—separate small- and large-dog areas under tall maples, with Kerrytown and river paths nearby.

Rules can change—Ann Arbor requires an annual off-leash dog permit. Verify with A2 Parks before you go.

What to know

  • Address: 800 Broadway St, Ann Arbor, MI 48104.
  • Size: About 1.37 acres fenced, with small- and large-dog sections.

  • Permit: Annual off-leash permit (rabies + license + waiver) via City Clerk / stream.a2gov.org.

Tips

  • Great after a Kerrytown errand—close enough for a real run without a long drive.
  • Newer seeded grass may be taped off after renovations; stay off recovering turf.
  • For a bigger field day, A2’s Swift Run Dog Park (Platt & Ellsworth) is the larger option—same permit.

What to pack: Bags, water, and a secure harness for Broadway Bridge approaches.
