55This aptly named spot was heavenly indeed! It's a beautiful property in a peaceful, tucked-away neighborhood that feels delightfully off the beaten path but is conveniently located to Burnsville and surrounding areas. The fenced portion of the yard was larger than I expected and was more than enough space for my dog's enthusiastic zoomies - it includes a large flat grassy portion for playing fetch, as well as a sloped middle portion with some landscaping and vegetation that my dog had fun running around. The fence is very secure and my 20lb pup was unable to find any gaps. Towards the end of the visit, I also let my dog run some laps on the huge unfenced front yard - it is set back a fair distance from the end of a quiet country road so I felt very safe allowing her to enjoy the open space. The yard is well-maintained and there are beautiful rolling hills and forest all around. We enjoyed our relaxing visit and will be back!Melinda G.

55Big open yard, easy parking, lots of different areas for our dogs to explore. Close to downtown, super clean yard, really easy to recommend. There were two dogs in the neighboring yard and the neighbor very sweetly offered to take them inside. We both confessed to having one nasty dog! That was super considerate of her. Diane C.

55A previous comment was that there was a second gate that was not secured, but that was not my experience so it must have been remedied. This is a great yard. It has a lawn area for running and chasing a ball, and an area that has trees and wonderful sniff areas to explore. We will definitely be back.Mary D.

55A great backyard, very spacious and private. My dog absolutely loved playing fetch here and running around. There is a dog next door in a fenced in backyard that was super calm and just laid down the whole time we played fetch. Bring bug spray! Molly E.

55There’s really something for every dog at this Sniffspot, room to run around, lots of things to sniff, and varied terrain to explore. There was also plenty of fresh water, bug spray, hand sanitizer, and even some sparkling water set out for the humans to enjoy. The dogs had a great time here! Lauren S.

55This is a nice spot! It's a very well-maintained yard, and was a good size for my dogs. The fence is solid and secure with no holes/gaps. I have a tiny 12 lb pup who can get through small spaces, so this is the #1 thing I look for. I felt at ease knowing there was no chance of her getting out. Kara K.

55This place is great! Just like the description and a huge yard for my dog to run around and play fetch in. She loved taking a break under the deck with some shade and the host had water bowls for us to use. There was also a sprinkler that would have been fun if my dog wasn’t scared of hoses lol! Convenient area; we will definitely be back! Jessica C.

55Easy to find. The fencing was secure all the way around, except one low point that my dog wouldn't even mess with. The gate didn't have the best way to secure it shut, but it works. Justin H.

55We’ve been twice and really loved it. Both of these properties (#1 and 2) are amazing. Top rated for a reason. The full perimeter is secure. The stream is so perfect. The fencing at both ends is completely sturdy and secure. There are toys, chairs, a hammock and a picnic table. There is also a shelter in case you get caught in the rain like we did! Ha.
I did bring my own chain when we came back to secure the gate at the bottom (I may have been doing it wrong). There was a gap and my gal was super curious. Once I secured it, it was completely snug and secure.
We’ll continue to support this sniff spot. It’s a blessing to have these places. Thank you so much. Kristen T.

55This place is amazing!!!! It was great to let the girls roam freely and not have to worry about them running off. They had a great time, sniffing from tree to tree and frolicking in the creek. If you're looking for a wide open space to let your pup be a pup, this is the place. Jennifer C.

FAQ about our Bakersville dog parks
Are dog parks good for dogs?
It is important for dogs to have off leash exercise to sniff and run. But the free and open nature of public dog parks has drawbacks. There could be aggressive dogs, disease transmission and cleanliness issues. For this reason, many dog behaviorists discourage visiting public dog parks and recommend Sniffspot's private dog parks. Sniffspot private dog parks only allow one guest to book at a time and are not open to the public, which solves many of these issues.
