Barber Park

A Conway stop for a quick run and a longer walk.

Barber brings a fenced dog area to a larger recreation park on Gatlin Avenue. It is a practical starting point for Conway dog owners who want to combine off-leash time with a leashed walk. Keep your dog leashed between the parking area and the enclosure; the sports fields and splash pad are separate facilities.
