55The space was very clean and perfect for my two dogs to get all the running they needed. The stream and sand bar were also a perfect place for them to cool down and teach my puppy how to be more comfortable with water!Mackenzie S.

55My dogs had a blast here, it was easy to get to and securely fenced enough for our kiddos who have selective ears. The river is perfect for wading in and playing in but not deep enough or fast enough where you have to worry. We’ll definitely rebook!Alli C.

55Perfect spot to get out of the city with the dogs and let them have some freedom. Very clear instructions for how to get there. They LOVED the river, hope someone finds and enjoys the tennis ball they decided to forgo as they were having too much fun playing together! My dogs are both on flea and tick meds and we still pulled off 3 before we got into the car and found another in bed when we got home after fully scrubbed baths (they got quite muddy lol) , so make sure your giving them a good TWICE over this year! A wonderful spot that we will for sure be coming back to. Corrie H.

55We had such a great time! It was isolated enough we could practice recall and she got to swim until she was tuckered out. It's beautiful and peaceful ❤Jessica A.

55This place is the best! So clean and SO much space to run and let your dog be a dog, or to practice training and recall! Always such a fun time when we get to come out and run through the river! Nellie gets so excited when she recognizes where we are now! Will always keep coming back! sydney b.

55What a treasure! This spot is full of adventurous fun. Perfect place for a dog to explore. Really appreciate the mowed paths through the acres of lush greenery. The creek is especially beautiful, even saw several swimming trout. There are ticks looming in the tall grass (owner is correct: tis the season) that we picked off our dog and ourselves, but honestly, it’s a minor inconvenience for the absolute joy had by us all. We’re visiting family in Stillwater MN but will absolutely return for future visits. Emily Y.

55A slice of dog heaven. Well maintained walking trails through a weeded field and a perfect stream for the dogs to cool off in along the way. This is the best sniff spot we've been to and probably won't go anywhere else.Kyle C.

55This location was a wonderful spot to take our two dogs for some off-leash fun. We have a dog-reactive pup and so we don't take him to dog parks. This was a perfect spot to let him explore off leash without the fear of other dogs coming up to him. We would definitely book again!Jackie L.

55What a magical spot! It was the perfect size for us to explore and the river access is a beautiful bonus on hot days like these! My pup had the most wonderful time running free and swimming, and I felt she was very safe the entire time despite being off a county road - there is too much to be interested in on this property for her to stray that far away to the road! It’s well maintained and easy to navigate. We’ll definitely be back! Sarah S.

55Always one of our favorite Sniffspots! The river is so cold and refreshing in the July heat. It’s the perfect spot to get outside and enjoy nature with the dogs. 😊 Also, the bugs weren’t bad at all — yay!Lauren J.

FAQ about our Ellsworth 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. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Ellsworth 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 228 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 12 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.
