55This was a great place to bring my pup to burn off some energy! She is very shy and this was a very private spot where I felt comfortable to let her off leash as the area was well fenced in. She even jumped around on the agility equipment and went through the tunnel! Thank you!Molly H.

55We loved Skolaski Ranch! It was clean, peaceful and had fun agility course jumps and a ramp for our pup to explore. She happily tired herself out chasing the ball and frisbee. We will definitely book again in the future! Liz S.

55It was very private and calm! It was easy to keep an eye on our dog the whole time but he had plenty of space to run. The little agility activities are a nice touch. Chickens are visible from in the fenced in area, which is fine with our dog, but just something to keep in mind if you think your dog will be set off by that.Quinn W.

55Our pup, Phoebe, had a phenomenal time with all the space, toys, and agility courses. A number of amenities were also provided (water, doggie bags, etc) which added a lot of convenience. And the cherry on top of it all was the stunning view from the park!Alec S.

55The view is spectacular for the humans! And the chickens (on other side of fence) were of great interest to my furry friend! 😂 Don’t think she’s ever seen one before. My dog had an absolute blast running at top speed, chasing balls, and getting treats for trying the agility stuff. Very nice and will definitely go again!Debbie L.

55We’ve been here several times. My dog Java LOVES it here! She has so much fun running at top speed, checking out the “girls” on the other side of the fence (chickens😂), and has really had a blast with all the agility stuff which has been so fun to watch her discover! The view is also fabulous and the whole place is really nicely maintained!Debbie L.

55This was perfect for my dogs! My little guy just got neutered 12 days ago and shouldn’t really be wrestling at regular dog parks yet so this was great to get him off leash, playing with toys, and running with his big brother. The space was well-maintained and super welcoming! Will definitely go back again if we’re trying to avoid dog parks for any reason :)Megan D.

FAQ about our Darlington 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.
