Edgewater Dog Beach

I have mixed feelings about this beach. It's great to let your dog offleash to play in the water. I don't however like that it's completely open. I don't like how dirty the water is(I understand however that it cannot be helped). I had some idiot woman on a bike complain about me walking my dogs across hot pavement to get to the dog side of the beach even though I clearly went to the beach for my dogs, not myself since even my service dog deserves a break. Some people at this park/beach clearly have no clue how to mind their own business. It could be a much better experience for the dogs if the walk wasn't so far (especially with a heart condition). It is nice to be able to let you dogs cool off on hot days, but be prepared to clean them at home after just in case, to prevent them getting sick from that filthy water which has garbage and dead fish floating in it! I also want to say, if you are at this beach and don't approve of something PLEASE BUTT OUT! It's not necessary to be rude when you have no clue what someone else is going through! We all go to a beach or park to enjoy ourselves and don't need someone being petty trying to ruin our experiences!
