55This yard is INCREDIBLE!
There are several switchbacks that make the yard seem bigger than it is, and you hike down to a little creek!
My dog LOVED this spot ❤️ I was a little bit sad when I got back to the car because I thought someone left their poop bag on my car but it was a bag full of snacks! I thought it was for my dog but the semi-healthy snacks were for ME! 😍
This spot is beautiful and serene and I highly recommend it!Crystal C.

55This was our third time back, we brought a friend and her dog with us today! Each time we've returned there have been more and more improvements to a place that was amazing to begin with. Dogs and humans both had a wonderful time. Fantastic host and spot!Robin F.

55This is such a beautiful and magical property! I brought a pack of 10 and they LOVED it. I had a tough time relaxing initially as the landscape is just so beautiful! Unfortunately, I left my phone on my dog bus so didn't take pictures. We booked 1 1/2 hours and I still feel like there was more to explore. A major upside was being able to drive onto the property, Linda (the equally amazing hostess) secured the gate behind us, and I just opened the dog bus and let them go. We will be back! Angela N.

55We had a blast going up and down the trails. Both my pup and I were tired out. She had a great time splashing through the creek and bushwhacking. Deborah C.

55Epic Sniffspot!!! Our 1.5 hours was barely enough time to do/see everything Wonderlane has to offer. When the dogs got thirsty, magically there was a clean water dish and hydrant right there. When one boy needed his paws cleaned - viola! A wash basin and hydrant right at that spot too! The property has been developed to be Sniffspot perfection! We'll return many times. TY Linda!!!Rebecca C.

55Seems bigger than 2 acres, with the many terraced and winding trails. My dogs went straight to the stream, at the bottom of the ravine that the sniff spot traverses. Then enjoyed exploring the trails. Dogs do disappear out of sight quickly, due to all the curving trails. Host has put lots and lots of work into trail making and more. Beautiful wildflowers today!Kate S.

55Beautiful forest ravine...very peaceful and felt like you were definitely in the woods. Love the water spigots and places to sit and enjoy the scenery. Definitely a little muddy when you get to the bottom by the creek but Rufus loved it. We loved the human treats on our car when we got back to it! Thank you for sharing your yard with us.Amy S.

55Wow what an amazing spot! First time using Sniffspot and we were spoiled by the fun! Booked two hours just in case but the pups were dead by one hour from all the exploring. She even gave us a goodie basket on the car! Can’t tell you how amazing it is exploring freely with reactive dogs.Becca H.

55We really liked the nature walks at the spot. Our dog had so much fun.
We love going to trails, but due to our dog’s reactivity, we weren’t able to go out to trails for a while. We will visit this spot again when we miss our family trail walking. Irene C.

55We had a great time! Linda was helpful and answered my questions before we visited and provided detailed information about her property. The property was huge and had trails all over for walking. The dogs loved running ahead and up the sides through the brush. There’s a creek at the bottom and a bit of a mud puddle that they loved running through. You can hear neighbors but they’re far away and there’s plenty to keep the dogs distracted. Linda also had beverages out if needed and even left us some treats at the end- people treats! We will definitely be returning! Amber P.

FAQ about our Algona dog water parks
Are dog water parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are 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. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines. Some great ways to stay safe around water with your dog include learning canine CPR and keep an eye on your dog at all times to ensure they are not distressed.

How do I know if a dog water park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog water parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog water parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to see what kind of water features are offered to make sure it works for your dog. If your dog is not a strong swimmer, then perhaps choose a dog water park with tamer water features rather than a river or beach, for instance. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot water park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Additionally, we recommend following our water safety guidelines.
