We did hear a dog barking at the neighbors, and see a man in his field with horses, but they were all more than 50 feet away. Jami P.

55This is an amazing space for a dog to run and sniff! We rated it with 5 stars for a dog who is ok with partial fencing. The fence ends 1/2 way down the yard and then the yard is lined with marsh and tall reeds on one side and lake on the other side. Our dog went right through the marsh and reeds to the neighbors yard!! We will have to look for fully fenced yards from now on, but if your dog can handle the distractions it is a beautiful spot. Green grass, lake access, and dock. Laurie T.

55This spot is absolutely AMAZING! Very long yard that leads to the water where there is a small sand beach! There is a great natural barrier that separates the yards. We really appreciated having a awesome water spot for our dog that gets picked on while at dog parks. This is the best sniff spot we have been to! Lauren M.

55Loved this space! Lots of open area to run around and toss a ball, and a nice private little beach to cool off. The host also provides seating near the water which was really nice. Really quiet, can hear the toads in the weeds.
Can't see or hear other dogs or people if you have a reactive dog.Dannyalle B.

55Lovely, quiet lake access. There are large neighboring dogs in the adjacent yard that don't have strong fencing, but may be a concern of you have a reactive pup. We had a blast with the nice shallow entry area, which was perfect for our GSD to walk around in and get used to the water. She swam for the first time! We will definitely be back.Jess L.

55This spot was fantastic! It was very private (given it was on a busy late) and included wonderful amenities such as nice lounging chairs. The beach was well kept and our dog loved it! Heather C.

55My dogs has such a good time playing in the water. There was plenty of grass to play fetch, a sandy beach to ease the dogs into the water and stayed fairly shallow pretty far out. Can’t wait to come back! Stephanie B.

55We had our first visit here and loved it. Just my one dog, Jake, and a friend came to hang out. Such a lovely spot—lots for Jake to investigate and the water is a big plus—he likes to swim. (He did want to swim after some geese, but there was no way he could keep up.) It’s a very comfortable and peaceful spot for humans to sit by the water too. We'll be back. Thanks!Deb M.

55This was a great place to go!! The grass was mowed, and the yard was well kept although we spent most of our time in the lake. Neighbors were out but they didn't bug us at all. Overall it was an amazing sniffspot.Darrian G.

FAQ about our Forest Lake 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 Forest Lake 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 176 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 18 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.
