55What a great space for our huskies to run and forage! It was one degree and a wet snow but they don’t mind the cold, mud and puddles at all! I’m sure it’s beautiful in the summer.
Finding the entrance was a bit confusing but Daniel, who is very friendly, came out and once we saw it, it’s easy to get to. And he was very clear about the one gate missing but it gave us no concern as the dogs were easy to redirect away from it. We’ve already booked for next weekend! Gwyn R.

55We visited Goldenwood on a very wet winter day, so we are excited to try it in the spring and summer when everything is in bloom! The host was very friendly and there if we needed him. There was no gate but that was stated in the description and in the message before we went, also the host let us know that it comes off in the winter and goes back on in the spring. Our dogs have good recall and we didn’t have any issue with that! Our little kids loved to come and splash in the puddles too. It’s a great spot for medium to larger dogs to jump around. Owner is making picnic tables to put out there and that will be handy for snacks and sitting while watching your dog sniff around. Alicia S.

55This place is amazing. Fully fenced and so spacious. Our dogs had a blast. I would definitely recommend it and will visit again for sure. If you decide to go on a rainy day like me, I recommend to wear rainboots. Oh, and bonus: as the owners have a farm, you can buy fresh eggs right there. Eliska G.

55Our Samoyed needed a biopsy on Monday, so we decided to take him to this spot on Sunday. The host was very enthusiastic and gave us directions. The spot was large and clean. Although the snow melted when we went there, the dogs were very happy. We will come back when the weather is good or when it snows heavily. Isla S.

55Great spot. Our boy Gizmo had a great time sniffing and fetching. It was pretty muddy so wear boots the terrain also pretty uneven so watch your footing. The only suggestion I would have is to have a couple of signs pointing to the directions into the area. Other than that it's great! Gizmo loves his visit for his first birthday!Laura M.

55Great spot! There were neighbourhood dogs in their yards that were running the fence barking at us which was fine with me - a great training opportunity actually! However if you have a dog that would be bothered by that this might not be the best place for them. Kate M.

55This was such a great SniffSpot! Our Vizsla had an absolute blast running and exploring through the tall grass and trees. We live in the city and seeing the joy on her face of her running off leash safely in nature is the best feeling.
With the amount of space, we were able to do some mantrailing/recall training. Lots of areas to run and hide for your pup to sniff out a trail.
There are some neighbouring properties with dogs along the fence line as others have mentioned but we used it as an opportunity to practice our ‘leave it’ command :)
Overall we left with one muddy and very happy pup. We loved it and will definitely be back in the summer! Thanks Daniel and Rachelle for sharing your beautiful property!Jess F.

55Amazing space, and beautiful property. Fully fenced except for a portion of the pond, your dog would have to fully swim to cross it.
Our dogs had so much fun, it was such a nice opportunity for our rescue. They even waded in the pond a little! Olivia G.

55Great place exactly as described ! Saw an adorable family of deer in the field. Only thing is the fence beside the gate to get into the off leash section - something has started digging a hole under it and my dog could have gotten out if she wanted to! Luckily she was so busy exploring everything she didn't notice :) the pond and picnic table are a great touch Crystal B.

55Great spot for exploring, owner has cut down some winding trails both inside the off-leash area and on the leashed trails. The wide-open area (full sun) is great for running around and then there are a couple of trails further at from the road that have some shade. Picnic table for humans to sit while pup explores. The small pond was a hit and refreshing on a warm day. Lots of tall grass. I found a tick so make sure to check yourself and pup afterwards. We’ll definitely be back!Helen C.

55Drove past the driveway the first time but once I got on the property it was super easy to find the fenced area! We walked the perimeter to double check that the fencing was in good condition (especially along the side that borders Hwy 6) and then I let Ruckus off leash to romp around!
It was quite wet after all the rain we’ve had the last few days but I was totally fine in my rain boots.
We had a lovely morning walk and will definitely be back! Holly M.

55The sniffspot was fantastic. The fencing was great and the dogs enjoyed running around the open space and through the trails. We have found about 15 ticks either on our dogs, or ourselves so please make sure to check yourself after for ticks. Camilla P.

55A doggie dream! Huge field for the dogs to get lost in without worry of losing them. The paths are wide and winding through the very tall grass. The pond doesn't seem very deep and my dog loved wallowing around like a pig. There is about a third of the pond that isn't fenced so if they are swimmer ls just keep an eye they don't swim to the wrong side, but if they do it's right at the gate so you can quickly bolt out and grab them.
Like other reviewers have stated there is not signage for the off leash field but it is not confusing like some make you believe. Just walk down the wide mowed path and eventually to your right there is a straight path to the gate.Ali C.

55We had such a great time today! For the directionally challenged (me) it took a bit to find the entrance, an arrow with “leash free this way” would have been great, but my dogs had a great time just trying to find the gate!
I have a very reactive rescue that cannot be off leash as she will run away, but to see her run free was amazing and we will absolutely be booking this property again!
I also paid the $5 to cut sunflowers and they’re just gorgeous! Sarah T.

FAQ about our Millgrove 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. 94% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Millgrove area are 5 stars.

You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 209 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 34 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.
