Off-leash dog park in the Bay Area

I am compiling a list of off-leash dog park near San Francisco and try to visit as many as we can!

• Alamo Square in SF – no fence.
• St. Mary’s Park – fenced-in.  closed during the rainy season.  just one big area for both small and large dogs.
• Baker Beach in SF
  
• Buena Vista Park in SF
• Crissy Field in SF
• McLaren Park – there is a pond dogs can swim in.  there is no large open area, but tons of trails to walk on.  the off leash area is not big.  I saw more large dogs than small ones.  It is not easy to find the dog area, but for google map, use this address. 229-279 John F Shelley Dr. San Francisco, CA 94134
• Ocean Beach in SF – between staircase #21 and north-end of the beach
• Stern Grove in SF – not fenced in, but far from streets.  great in summer, but it gets very muddy during the rainy season.

• Bayside Park in Burlingame – fenced-in.  it is hard to find. you just have to park in the parking lot and look for a sign.  not very big and lots of big dogs…  we left without going in.  Mochi is not good with large dogs.
• Foster City Dog Run(Boat Park) – fenced-in dog run.  separated areas for small and large dogs.  we were there on sunday and it was packed!  i love the park, especially during the rainy season since they have artifitial grass.  mochi could not find anybody he liked…  but i think he had fun.  i heard it can be stinky during the summer.
• Commodore Dog Park in San Bruno – fenced-in dog run.  separated areas for small and large dogs.

• Cipriani Dog Park in Belmont – people do not seem to like this park…  but it is a fenced-in park.
