From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Waukesha County Park System is located in Waukesha County, Wisconsin. It is composed of nine different parks throughout the county: Fox Brook Park, Fox River Park, Menomonee Park, Minooka Park, Mukwonago Park, Muskego Park, Naga-Waukee Park, and Nashotah Park. "From swimming to camping to hiking and cross-country skiing, each park has its own personality."[1] The park system also has five lake accesses: Ashippun Lake [ceb; wikidata], Nagawicka Lake [wikidata], Nemahbin, Pewaukee Lake, and School Section [wikidata]; two golf courses: Naga-Waukee War Memorial, and Moors Down; two ice arenas: Naga-Waukee and Eble; Retzer Nature Center [wikidata]; and the Waukesha County Expo Center. Dogs are permitted at all parks with the exception of Retzer Nature Center.[2]  Minooka Park, Mukwonago Park and Nashotah Park offer the community fenced in dog parks.[3][4]
