55This is a lovely spot. The area where the water is has either trees or water on almost every border, so it might as well be considered fenced. The space is large and my dog was able to really stretch those legs and have a good run around at full speed. We booked 2 hours but after an hour and a half the dog and the kids were exhausted lol. Don’t forget that this is Connecticut and you’re near water here, so definitely wear bug/tick spray! We also saw a beautiful bird on the other side of the water, maybe a loon? Thank you so much for hosting us, we had a blast!Jaclyn N.

55Beautiful place! I’m always nervous about unfenced places since our girl doesn’t have the greatest recall but this place is pretty safe. Peaceful too! Will come back!Tai C.

55Absolutely beautiful and so peaceful. The minute my dogs got out of the car they were so excited to be there, I let them off leash and they ran right for the water and never left. Even though not fenced there is a thick tree line to deter your dogs from roaming too far. We had a blast and cannot wait to come backNikki S.

55Host was great! Answered all my questions before hand, very quickly I might add. Loved the location! Was a little confusing to where we were going but that could just be on me. 😂 Dogs had fun and would recommend! Isabella B.

55Wonderful piece of property for our Aussie mix to run free. Woods and beautiful pond, very peaceful. We both brought camping chairs and water and of course balls. We started her with our 50 ft leash and then let her run! So great to see her running free! Patti R.

55My dog is a wuss when it comes to water. He did enjoy chasing the frogs and dragonflies. We had a good time. A bit challenging to find the entrance but once you see it there's no problem. Paula T.

55Pup had a blast running up and down the waterline. Even though it’s unfenced, it’s tucked away enough that is sort of has the effect of being fenced. I was comfortable letting him run off leash.Rachel S.

55My 3rd time to Kelly’s in less than a week. My husky loves running laps in the open fenced-in space! An added plus are the treats she provides for Thor and the welcome sign. Much appreciated Kim V.

FAQ about our Clinton 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. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Clinton area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 183 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 28 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.
