Carlson Reserve

The reserve is quite good. There's a tennis facility, a soccer/footy ground with cricket nets. The playground was recently renovated. Its got a small path connecting to two sides of the reserve and there is a council hall in the same place.

Worst I've seen the ground for preseason.
So chopped up it wasn't funny.

Just picking up some school kids who were playing soccer thay loved it

This is a great reserve! I've been going down to the oval to walk our Bull Terrier Braccus at 5-7PM every weekday; there is a good group of people and dogs who come down around the same time. It's been great to socialize our pup. There is tennis courts and soccer goals, the place is really well maintained and there is a Playground as well!

I made a Facebook group called "Carlson Reserve Clayton Dog Meetup" if you have a dog in need of socialization feel free to join. Thought it would be nice to get a little dog community going.

Plenty of parking for football pitches. Close to petrol station, fast food. Very short drive to train stations

No taps anywhere, toilets in lockdown. Parking is gravel blending into mulch with signs saying do not park here, there, somewhere else, facing the sun, on odd days if your number plates has an even number or if your great grandmother's maiden name has 3 vowels in it.
