Deer Valley Park and Playground Is A Great Spot When You Need to Get Both the Kids and Pup Outside!

Conveniently Located Off the 101 in North Phoenix, You Will Find a Community Center, Lighted Basketball Courts, a Large Playground with a Shade Structure, a Swimming Pool with a Slide, and a Dog Park Sponsored by Petsmart. The two stand-out features of Deer Valley Park are the large dog park and the community swimming pool. 

The swimming pool is open seasonally, usually from around the end of May to the beginning of September. Check their website for exact dates for the season as it gets closer! They have multiple 2 hour and 45-minute open swim sessions each day, including a mushroom fountain and a super fun waterslide! They also offer swim lessons each summer at the pool. Last year, for the 2021 season, swim lessons were free in all Phoenix public pools! The community pool has restrooms, showers, an ADA chair lift and stairs, and a beach entry. 

You must pay to swim; however, it is a very reasonable price. Kids are FREE, Seniors are $1, and Adults are $3

The dog park is a fenced-in grassy area of 2.5 acres. There are separate areas for both large and small dogs, and you can find benches around the park to relax while your fur babies meet new friends! Please note that all dogs must be fully vaccinated and at least four months of age to enter the dog park area. 

The playground is a smaller one, but with fairly new equipment and still a good time for younger kids. The playground offers a few smaller slides and swings.
