Purple Heart Park: Ivan's Spot

Great park for playing with nice bathrooms NOT SINGLE PLY HURRAYY! Plus working sinks

Absolutely LOVE this park! It's quiet and has plenty of room for everyone. This park has a dog park and splash pad which makes it enjoyable for everyone! They have a baseball field in the back where high school play tournaments! Beautiful landscaping and plenty of parking. There's also a skate park next door!

This dog park is nestled in the back of Purple Heart Park. You can park at Purple Heart and meander through or you can park right outside the dog park. The park has a large covered seating area as well as three benches without shade throughout. The park is dirt with some needleless desert plants around the edges. A paved sidewalk lines the perimeter for easy walking. There are the standard dog poo disposal cans with rakes/shovels available. I've always found this park to be clean, owners are pretty good about picking up after their dogs and the county staff empty the cans fairly regularly. Ivan's spot is divided into a large dog and small dog section. Some large/small dogs will still run along the fence in-between the two parks with each other and its adorable. Humans who frequent this spot seem to be friendly and overall keep a good eye on their pups, we've yet to encounter any horrible pups or humans. My dog is much older and sometimes gets a little trampled at busy dog parks with aggressive dogs, but here she can meander along the edges easily without getting caught in the mix of larger, more energetic dogs.

Awesome dog park. Extremely well maintained. Able to walk around in this well groomed park, with excellent restrooms, a pool,( which is free to use), and a water park for children.

Great dog park but even better people. I've not meet too many poorly behaved dogs, or if there is an anxious one then the owners are usually attentive and accountable.The pet owners here are amazing. I often see them sweeping the side walks and leveling any loose gravel. Generally no more than 10 dogs so it's usually a small to medium crowd. They also provide tennis balls, poop scoopers and poop bags. Separate play areas for small vs large dogs.

Clean and you can recycle your glass here. The dog park is great. The water park is wonderful and free. They've really put some effort and time into this park and it shows.

My kids and I love this park. There are plenty of places to walk on trails, go to the dog park, play at the splash pad, swim at the pool or run around on the playground. This park is close to my kids school and we regularly visit it. I will sit down on one of their benches and read while the kids play.

This a very quiet park and I would recommend this for families and individual people who want to enjoy the park. I wish they had swing set for everyone including adults. It's great in the winter when much cooler for Tucson Arizona. Enjoy julie l

Pretty safe for the most part. I like this park and have been coming for years. It could use a nice dog park but it's nice for a good jog.

This is a great park. There are 2 dog parks with the larger park. One for larger dogs and one for small dogs. There is an aquatic pool. There are several baseball fields as well.
