The small dog park is designed for dogs up to 25 pounds, while the large dog park is designated for all others. Owners are responsible for cleaning up after their pets.  Barkham is closed each Tuesday morning until 10AM for maintenance.

Woofing Waters consists of approximately two acres in the northwest corner of Quiet Waters Park. The facility comprises two sections: one designated for larger dogs, the other for smaller dogs. Feature for the big dogs include a spray hydrant, a shower nozzle, an eight-nozzle line jet, and nearly 800 linear feet of hard-surfaced paths. Little dogs get a shower nozzle and an eight-nozzle line jet, as well as a ring, or water loop, where they can run through an assortment of sprays. Each section includes a dog-wash area, as well as doggie drinking-water fountains. The hounds' human companions can take shade under 20-foot umbrellas, relax on beaches and at picnic tables, and sip from water fountains to cool off. A building housing restrooms and concession operations serves the dog park. Owners are responsible for cleaning up after their pets. Open seasonally. ​
