55What an amazing space for our pups! Friz, our youngest, had an absolute blast running all around the massive yard and Giz, our old man, had his own fab time sniffing and exploring the perimeter. Nice and private, fully fenced in so we didn’t have to worry about any escapes and there were even some toys and treats out (we def made use of the treats!). Going back tomorrow and definitely more in the future too!Meredith G.

55This was a great Sniffspot! Probably the best one I've been to - my dogs loved getting to romp around here, and my younger dog especially loved the giggling chicken toy :DCarrie P.

55My 2 dogs love this yard. It’s huge and has a creek running through it that they live to go into. It had been raining a few days before when we went which made it muddy but I was ready for them to be muddy anyways from going in the water. Definitely bring a towel with you! Tim M.

55We were warned it was muddy from all the rain and came prepared with proper foot wear and extra towels in the car. Lots of room for the dogs to run and very clean. The water is a huge plus as our dogs love to get wet. We will be back dogs had a great time! Sara P.

55This is my favorite sniff spot! It is always clean and peaceful. Sara goes out of her way with accommodations and communication. It's like taking my babies to the park, without having to worry about all the issues of actually taking them to the park. Thank you Sara for sharing your beautiful space!Dayona S.

55Our pup had a blast! So much space to run around and play, and he even went into the creek to play for a bit, which usually he doesn’t do. The trails were a great touch as well. Hosts left a clean water bowl, a fresh bottle of water, a few treats, and plenty of toys. Our pup came excited, and left tired. We’ll be back!Shaun C.

55We had a great time! It was pretty easy to find, look for the house number on the mailbox post. Finley enjoyed his off leash time and smelling all the smells. The area is just like a little park. The host left out some water and treats for us which was a nice touch. My pup loved wading in the creek and exploring the little trails. We will absolutely visit again! Nancy K.

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.

If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our small dog park sites where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can see any park amenities provided, including a park bench, water for dogs or water features such as kiddie pool or water hose. If your dog loves water, you can go to a park with water features, but if they don't love water, you can avoid them. We also recommend reading reviews to check for park maintenance issues and reaching out to the host with any questions. And lastly, of course, check park hours. Many of our parks are open from dawn until dusk.
