55This was such a nice spot to visit! Lots of room for our dogs to run around and play fetch. The terrain is pretty hilly, but not dangerously so, and it made for good exercise for all of us—dogs and humans. Very thoughtful touches, including benches and chairs for humans to take a break, toys and treats for dogs, and multiple places where they provide poop bags and trash cans. It looked pretty tidy—poop was picked up. And the surroundings were really pretty. Super friendly and kind owner, too. Erin B.

55Dawn to Dusk Doggie Domain is awesome! My boys couldn't wait to get off leash, run and explore. It's completely fenced so no worries about escape, The host had fresh water at a number of the rest spots within the space with toys for the dogs. I took my grand kids and they had a blast on the treasure hunt the host set up for kids. If I could rate this spot a 10 star that's what it would get. Carol the host thought of everything! We drove 150 miles round trip to visit Dawn to Dusk Doggie Domain and we are planning on doing it again soon. The boys slept all the way home and are still resting! 90 minutes was perfect to wear them out!Bailey N.

55We had our second day there and Daisy was so excited. She just ran herself tired. Just love this place. It is peaceful for the humans to just relax as well. Pattie A.

55It’s our second time and I cannot rave enough. There’s a new pergola with a seating area that is a very nice addition. We sat and watched our dog explore and chase the ball. Once again, we will be back! Kelsey S.

55Dawn to Dusk Doggy Domain was AWESOME. Our host came out and greeted us, told us where everything was, and made us feel so comfortable! The fencing is nice and high, and VERY secure. Lots of water spots and toys to choose from. We can’t wait to go back!!Baylee B.

55This was our third visit to Dawn to Dusk but the first time with another dog friend. Both dogs are a little "exuberant" so we've been leash walking them. Omg! They had so much fun TOGETHER! This place is a godsend The dogs and humans are so happy. Can't wait until next weekend!Gloria R.

55What a perfect spot; our dogs had a blast. The fence was completely secure all the way around, so I was never worried about them getting out, and there was an ample supply of water, treats, and toys. Carol clearly went above and beyond when putting this place together. We will definitely be bringing our dogs back frequently. Danielle S.

55I am not sure that a property owner could get better and do more for dog people than Carol. Her fence is excellent, she mowed around the perimeter for walking, there are chairs and benches to sit on, she supplies water and in the bench are toys. She also has a couple of agility practice areas set up. Wow! This was my first time using Sniffspot and I am impressed. Thank you Carol for your hard work.Mary A.

55The description in Sniffspot was accurate in every way. There were some cleared paths around the parameter and in the middle as well as some seating in the shade. She also has a couple of agility pieces, I was surprised both my dogs took to running through the tunnel a few times. I was also grateful that there wasn’t any dog poop laying around and she provides on the off chance you forgot to bring your own. There is also water available for your pups. My two had a blast running around the property, it is on a hill so we did a few loops and they seemed pretty tuckered after 45min. We will be back with friends soon!Tiffany H.

55Amazing Sniffspot! At the very top there is no enclosure, otherwise the area is secured by either fencing or very thick tall brush. We feel completely safe here. A really nice variety of terrain and nature...wonderful trails, a creek and grassy areas. You can tell this farm is loved. Thanks John & Stephanie!! ♥Susan D.

55Love this place! Woodsy and peaceful. We feel very at home here and completely safe. A mixture of groomed and primitive terrain with trails and a creek. Definitely wear boots in the winter, some spots can get muddy in the winter but if you stick to the main areas, it's easy to avoid. Always an awesome adventure!Susan D.

55Lovely place to spend a few hours that has it all - privacy, trails as well as a nice flat area to play ball and a small cabin with a porch on which you can have your lunch will listening to the stream and quiet of nature. Most of the trails are marked with signs and lined with logs to make them easier to follow. Would not recommend the trails for someone with bad knees. They aren't flat. And some areas are pretty muddy at this point. Our dog loves it though and it is a joy to see him be so happy and to be able to run off leash and explore like a dog should. He also loves the creek which is not very deep and has a little bit of a current. We all enjoyed the goats, chickens and cows! Beautiful property, very tranquil. I agree with everyone else - John and Stephanie are very welcoming. Anisa H.

FAQ about our Clarkston 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. 100% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Clarkston area are 5 stars.
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 3 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 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.
