Place to take my dog swimming in Greenville (apartment complex, college)

[scslpt]

Are there any good public places (lake, stream, etc) where I can regularly take my dog to swim in and around Greenville?

I believe you can, or people do, at the pond at PCC

The Tar River. There is a boat ramp at the Town Common.

Can you take your dog to the fake beach/pond at the ECU north rec complex place?

There's also an apartment complex at end of Stancill Dr. that has an overflow parking lot. You could probably park there and walk a few yards to the river.

The river? Really? I would not dare let my dog into that nastiness.

We take our girl to the pond at PCC. She does not like swimming but she does splash around a bit in there. They have a fountain that circulates the water and seems to keep it fairly clean. They have a trail through the woods that you can walk too. This is a great time to go as the college is pretty much deserted.

People aren't allowed to swim in it, but I know of nothing about the four legged.

The Tar River isn't nasty. This is nasty.

Nasty is relative. The Tar River is pretty damn nasty to me and I wouldn't want my dog swimming in it.

Hmm. Sounds like PCC is the best bet. Richard Martin: I'm not sure where that picture is from, but I think we'll steer clear.
