55Amazing spot to bring your dogs! The pond area was so nice to chill and relax while my pups got to know the place. We then walked up hill in the pasture area and they were able to zoomie and sniff to their hearts content. The view at the top is so worth it. Can only imagine what sunsets look like but this mornings view was spectacular. We had a grand ole time and hope to be back in the future to enjoy some more. Rebecca and Jesse F.

55This Sniffspot was really fun! Our dog is very timid and he had no problem getting out and up to the play area. The field was huge and the pond is a great bonus. The view from the top of the hill is something special. Dana S.

55Our first time on the hill when it hasn't been super overcast or foggy. Such a tranquil setting and perfect for dogs to stretch their legs, and practice recall and playing catch. Thank ypu for sharing this little slice of paradise with our canine friends.Margie T.

55This is a wonderful place! So peaceful with a variety of different areas for the dogs to explore. I loved the farm noises in the background and being able to hike up the hill for the views. The dogs loved it! So much room to run and play or just wander. We booked an hour and it was almost not long enough. We will be back. Troy C.

55What a beautiful property! I brought my reactive dogs here and they had the best time ever. They had so much room to explore! I don’t get to take them out much because of their reactivity to other dogs, so this was such a great experience for them. They are EXHAUSTED now. We will definitely be back! Hailie F.

55Lovely spot. Variety of space to explore with trees and open field. Plus a good work out traipsing up the hill, but the views are worth it.
Unfenced, but with clear lines of site to keep your pooches in view while they have plenty of space to explore. Moira M.

FAQ about our Independence 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.
