55We had such a great time at Meracle Acres! The property is gorgeous, trails are well maintained, and the dogs LOVED the water. Kaycee did warn us about the mosquitoes, definitely take that warning seriously and pack extra! It was our first experience with Sniffspot and definitely a good one. Olivia S.

55Our two puppies loved exploring the many different trails and romping on the beach. We booked an hour and a half and were still able to leave lots of exploring for next time. Highly recommend! Desiree W.

55We had a wonderful time at this sniff spot! The trails were easy to navigate and clear of long/tall grass. The dogs were able to wander off trail into the woods and get into the water. We had a lot of fun! Nicole G.

55BEAUTIFUL PROPERTY!!!!! I cannot wait to come back!!! Went for a hike and then ended with a swim session at the beach area by the house which was immaculate with beautiful clear water (my big dog made it all cloudy with his jumping around) but the substrate settled quickly and the fish came back. There is so much to explore and is great if you enjoy wildlife viewing. Thank you so so much for opening your amazing property up for us fellow dog owners 🤗Gabrielle D.

55This is such a beautiful property! We brought our two dogs for a walk on the trails and we all had a wonderful time. Both dogs, who normally will not go in the water played at the water’s edge and had the best time splashing around and sniffing everything-they were so happy ❤️ Can’t wait to come back again!Alli R.

55It was an amazing experience for my dog and I. It was worth the time we traveled and I think it was one of the best times my dog has had. He loved being able to walk the trails and pick our direction. He ran ahead and then would wait for me to catch up. When I bought out his tennis balls he had a blast chasing them down the trails. He had his first experience jumping in the water (I tried a pool for him before but he just drank it) and he realized he didn't really like the water. It was okay, I loved that he learned something new about himself. What a great place to come. The only downside was that we could hear frequent what sounded like gunshots from a neighbor and it started him more than once. Overall once he was used to them he was fine. Grandma H.

55I wish I could give this place 10 stars. It is exactly what I’ve been looking for to let my little guy really run free and explore. This is a truly special property with tons of different trails winding around small ponds and streams. I can’t wait to go back - what a find!Robin S.

FAQ about our Dousman 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 Dousman 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 225 fully fenced dog parks in the area.
