Visitors from Pendleton often tell us how much they and their dogs enjoy the time they spend in Beverly's Pet Campus Bark Park. The fully-enclosed, 4-acre park allows them freedom and security rarely found at public parks and facilities.
However, we understand that not everyone can come to the Fishers campus as often as they would like. To help our friends in Pendleton find outdoor alternatives to Beverly's Bark Park that they can enjoy with their pets a little closer to home, we provide information about local parks they can visit when they can't make it to Beverly's Pet Campus, as well as local resources, such as Pet Stores, veterinary care, dog adoption and pet rescue services, and dog-friendly events throughout Indiana.

Falls Park, Pendleton

Falls Park, located at 299 Falls Park Drive in Pendleton, is a large, lush play area for those young and old and everything in between. Boasting over 150 acres, the park area has amenities that normally aren’t seen in a small-town park, such as an Olympic-sized swimming pool, six baseball diamonds, the scenic falls , and extensive playground facilities for children.

The falls on Fall Creek are a part of Pendleton’s heritage. For nearly two centuries, it’s been the focal point of life there. It only made sense, then, to preserve the area. The falls are at the heart of an expansive park that features nature trails, an Olympic-size swimming pool, meeting facilities, a historical museum, and much more.
