55A nice sized yard right in the heart of downtown Asheville. Fully fenced, big enough for ball throwing, which is all my pup wanted to do. Christi was friendly, it’s a sweet spot, and delightful for a romp during a busy day. Thank you!!Robyn C.

55Awesome yard for my 2 pups, big enough that there are lots of places to explore, we loved all the seating options and shade. My small dog is a burrower and became obsessed with getting under the house, and into the enclosed spaces, but she’s just generally like that all the time. Super cute place!Stephanie D.

55A magical little oasis just off Merrimon Ave! Great space, lots of different areas of interest and well maintained. Lots of great little details (toys, fresh water, treats) and we paid to have the pool filled up, which is a nice option if you have dogs who like water (ours, apparently, didn't but that's OK!).Michael F.

55This yard was perfect for our leash reactive dog while we were visiting Asheville. The fence is super high and secure so I didn’t have to worry about him escaping. It was the perfect way to exercise our pup since we were staying in a small apartment. Thank you so much! Brenna M.

55Enjoyed! The yard was clean with sun, shade, and short grass. A great place to play, sniff, and explore surrounded by a secure wood fence.
Good communication and thoughtful amenities: poop bags and deposit can, clean water bowl and balls, mosquito repellant, table and benches.
Just an FYI, natural stone boulders have been used for the steps down to the yard. Because there is no hand rail these steps could be difficult for some humans to navigate. MCW C.

55Great big fenced in yard. A lot of stuff stored back there, and a trampoline, so if your dog is too curious, it might not be the best. Still, so nice to have a yard for our boy to run around in. Thank you!Amber S.

FAQ about our Barnardsville 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.
Are dog parks safe?

How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 69 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 11 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
