55What a fantastic yard for our fur babies to play in! The yard was secure, private, and well kept. Fresh water, a bowl, and a ball was provided which was amazing. Our olde english bulldog loved the ball so much, we now have to track one down. Thanks Kathryn for making your space available for reactive dogs like ours! Madison D.

55Brought my 1-year-old GSD here for the first time this morning - she had a blast! The yard was spacious, clean and the host was nice enough to provide fresh water, poop bags and hand sanitizer. I’m very particular about where I bring my dog and I was very happy. We will definitely be back! Cara G.

55Nice big yard, fully fenced. Went in the morning so it was still cool out and the grass was dewy which helped my dog stay cool. Owner was very responsive and has a hose you can use!Sarah J.

55What a great backyard! We had an awesome time and even increased our stay since no one was booked directly after us.
We encountered minimal bugs unlike some yards we have visited in the past.
We will definitely be going back.

55My pups had the best time! Easy to find, easy access, and plenty of space for them to run. Enjoyed the chairs in the shade on the patio and bug spray (they so kindly provided) since I went later in the evening. We will be back!Heather H.

55Chance had a lot of fun. The yard was large enough for him to run at full speed and had great spots to explore. Chance says the sticks were plentiful and sturdy haha. Derek’s yard is one of the largest and closest sniff spots to downtown Raleigh which is great if you can’t drive very far. We will be back!Mariam B.

Private + fully-fenced half acre yard by the woods, with free WiFi lounge area! | Sniffspot
55I’ve tried almost every sniffspot in the area, and this is by far the best for reactive dogs. Super quiet, secure fencing, great hosts that clearly went out of their way to put out toys, water, even a cute welcome sign. Of course, you do need to make sure that your dog will stay away from the pool, but we had no problem with that. We will be regulars here for sure!Hannah T.

55This is by far my favorite sniffspot for my reactive dog. The yard is fully fenced with no visibility. There is plenty of shade to cool off in, and the host even left out a chilled bottle of water for me! They wrote our names on a cute sign to welcome us back for another visit, and they have a basket of toys for your dog to choose from. Highly recommend! Kassidy V.

FAQ about our Benson 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?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Benson area are 5 stars.

You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 303 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 26 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby.
