STEAD PARK

Public BBQ

Stead Park in Corio offers dog owners a well-designed escape with thoughtful amenities that set it apart from busier alternatives. The facility features two distinct areas: a large section for active dogs and a separate, more tranquil space for smaller or less energetic companions. Both enclosures boast secure double-gated entries, water fountains, and waste disposal stations with bag dispensers. The park's strategic location off St Georges Road provides convenient access with ample parking on John's Street, making it particularly appealing to ferry passengers needing to exercise their dogs after the Spirit of Tasmania journey. Recent upgrades have enhanced the experience with higher fencing, additional seating, trees for shade, and various entertainment features for canines. While the facility maintains excellent infrastructure and cleanliness, the social dynamics can vary depending on other visitors' supervision habits. The smaller "passive" area, designed for quieter dogs, occasionally hosts more boisterous animals, creating unpredictable interactions.
