Barkhaven

The Write-Up

The full story

Playful and dog obsessed on Brookhaven Drive, Barkhaven pairs a supervised off leash park and splash zone with a full restaurant and bar, so pups play while their people actually relax. The kitchen goes beyond the expected with guava wings, the BH brisket bratwurst, and the Big Rich burger, plus pup cups and a dog menu of their own. Guests say their dogs leave happily worn out, and the cocktails, including the Raise the Woof old fashioned and BarkHaven IPA, give the humans a real reason to stay.

District Story

The story of Ivanhoe Village

A lake named for a novel, a shore of cotton, pineapples and amusement rides, and a main street that kept reinventing itself around the water.
