Jackson Park

Jackson Park is Western North Carolina's largest municipally owned park, with activities and facilities for people of all ages.

Pet's Own Place Dog Park is a wide, dog-friendly field in Hendersonville, North Carolina, located across Mud Creek from the Oklawaha Greenway trailhead. It is fenced and divided into two portions for small and large dogs. A waste bag dispenser, trash can, and water spigot are also available.

The goal of DogWorld was to establish an off-leash utopia where dogs and their humans could safely interact and play together. We discovered that most public dog parks were small, packed spaces where there was no way of knowing whether other dogs were vaccinated or friendly, so we built a park where we could assure that all dogs were vaccinated and temperament checked.

There are 3,900 acres of woods for hiking and camping, as well as canoeing and fishing on the Eno River.

There is a playground, tennis and basketball courts, a dog park, and a skate park in this large park.
