PARK RULES & REGULATIONS
Park Hours
Most Loveland parks are open from 6:00A–10:30P daily unless otherwise specified onsite. All parks except Viestenz-Smith Mountain Park will remain open in the winter months. Loveland Sports Park may be closed due to weather conditions and restrooms may remain closed for the season and/or during extremely cold temperatures. Please refer to specific park web pages or call 970.962.2327 for more information.
Grills
The grills located in the parks are for charcoal use. When using the grills, you must make sure the coals are completely extinguished before vacating the site. You may leave the remaining coals/ash to continue cooling, and our parks workers will eliminate the ashes when they clean the grills before their next use. If you prefer to use a gas grill, you are welcome to bring your own to the park, as long as you use it on a paved/cement surface and you allow it time to cool so you may take it with you when you leave.
Pets
Pets are welcome in most parks as long as they are leashed and under human control at all times, except in designated off-leash dog park enclosures where voice control is required. Owners must clean up after their pets and dispose of waste properly. Pets are not allowed on playgrounds, spray parks, skate parks, inline rinks, basketball or volleyball courts, or the Championship Field at Loveland Sports Park. At the Barnes Softball Complex, dogs are now welcome! They must remain leashed, well-behaved, and stay out of dugouts and fields of play. Please keep dogs in spectator or outlying areas and be respectful of players and other park users. Violations may result in removal from the facility.
