55Amazing experience and beautiful property! Our dog is reactive and it is hard to find a peaceful place to allow her to sniff and relax. The trails were well-groomed and we had a wonderful time! We’ll definitely be back!Teresa W.

55This is the best SniffSpot I’ve ever been to! Our pup had a great time exploring the property and even jumped into the pond (thank goodness for the hose…). We’re moving to the Twin Cities so I’m sure we’ll be back often for more adventures!Natalie O.

55My hounds had a blast… it was a perfect spot! And with three hounds, hiking at public places can be hard even though they are dog and people friendly so it was also just as great for me. Rebecca P.

55Poppy's Play Prairie was a great place for our dog to run around. Many different trails and open spaces for him. Great for anyone who wants a space for their dog to be able to run around and play or go on a leashed hike! A great Sniff Spot further out of the cities!Melia M.

55Beautiful place for my dogs to run, they haven’t been off leash much and the trails were so nice! Met the owner and appreciated his offer of the house hose if my dogs took a swim, one jumped in the pond at the end and we appreciated being able to hose him down before heading home. We will definitely be visiting again!Karen F.

55This is a great option for dogs who love some woods - we didn’t even make it around the entire loop, my pups were having such a great time in the shady ravine area! We appreciated the picnic table too. We look forward to exploring more in the future - this spot it a bit of a trek for us - it will be a special treat when it works out for us to visit again! Seriously happy dogs and delightful for humans too!
We did briefly hear a dog on a neighboring property, but never saw anyone unexpected.Corinna T.

55First time I’ve been since it was iced over! It was great as usual ❤️
There is a pond and I’m always fearful of blue green algae - if your dogs are prone to jumping in the water be aware - thankfully I was able to wipe my maniac down
Just a fantastic oasis for city dogs Rachel R.

55We’ve been visiting this spot regularly for
nearly a year and my dog always has the best time. Often he protests getting in the car at the end because he’s not ready to leave! Trails are well maintained in all seasons and we love taking a break at the picnic tables. Jenn H.

55Awesome place to bring your dogs. It felt like we rented our own private state park without the chance of running into other dogs or people. The trails are well kept and the perfect length for the hour we were there. We kept two of our dogs on long lines as their recall is not the best and this was a perfect chance to practice it. So much sniffing was had and all three are now passed out!Kristyen K.

55My two dogs and I had such a great time at Poppy’s! We got out there early on a beautiful Sunday morning. We enjoyed the 15 acres and I watched as they flew around off-leash to their heart’s content. They sniffed, explored and chased each other for an hour straight. One of my dogs does not do well at dog parks so it was great to give her a chance to get off leash without me having to worry. We all left happy and exhausted. Can’t wait to go back again!Trevor D.

FAQ about our Belle Plaine 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.
