55I had a wonderful time with my German shepherd at this sniff spot. The owners were very friendly and well prepared. They had plenty of toys, emergency kits, etc. for the dogs to enjoy. The yard was large and had a lot of interesting things for the dog to smell. The access to the lake and trails was also amazing and provided a whole different experience for my dog to explore. He loved exploring around the shoreline and running on the trails. The area was well maintained and very clean. There was no trash or debris anywhere. My dog was in heaven and didn't want to leave. I highly recommend this sniff spot to anyone looking for a private and fun place for their dog.

55My first Sniffspot experience was above my expectations! The backyard was beautiful and clean, with lots of room for my 2 dogs to run around in. My dogs loved it! The host had full water bowls, toys, bug spray, and wipes - very considerate! Behind the fence is Corps of Engineers land by the lake, so we took the dogs on their leashes for a walk by the water. I will definitely be back, great spot! Jo and Randy S.

55We had our first ever visit, to SniffSpot, at this gorgeous place. It's not even a .25 mile from our house (we have a small yard due to pool). My two small dogs were wore completely out after just 20 minutes and headed to the gate. This will definitely be our go to quiet place for our fur babies! Thank you for letting us visit.Lynette G.

55Our first experience here was amazing! Our pups LOVED the room to romp and they had so much fun exploring the lake shoreline and swimming. The yard was super clean and the host had lots of extra goodies available to use if needed.

55We love this sniffspot and more importantly, our dog absolutely loves this sniffspot. He will start whining intensely when we get off the highway and into the neighborhood. The owners are very nice and well prepared. Olivia L.

55The yard was the perfect size, the view was gorgeous and it was well stocked with anything you’d need for play time and post play time cleaning. My dog loved it, and I really appreciate the option of him being able to have outdoor, off-leash play time as I live in an apartment myself. Kayla V.

55Beautiful property! The backyard and lake view is very scenic as well as spacious! The neighbors have dogs on their property that may bark at yours for a bit but nothing too crazy. My girl did find a way to slip through the fence though so just keep an eye on your pup if they’re an escape artist! All in all a wonderful spot! Catherine C.

55The hosts have set up their sloped lakefront yard thoughtfully for dogs and their people to enjoy. Lots to explore and sniff, plenty of room to play chase and bitey face. Best supplies station setup we’ve ever seen at a Sniffspot. Had a great time!Melissa M.

55This was our first time using sniffspot and I was a little intimidated to walk into someone’s backyard, however this host made it abundantly clear we were at the right place. Now the yard itself was so serene and beautiful. My boys were at home immediately. Thank you for sharing your slice of paradise with us. Elesha A.

How do I know if a small dog park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your furry friends.
