55We LOVE this place! Our 2nd time here. We drive 2 1/2 hrs to get here and it is soooo worth it. We booked it for two hours and our 2 dogs ran for the full 2 hours. It is such a beautiful spot and so well taken care of. The paths through the woods are great. I got great exercise walking around and around the paths. My husband has a hard time walking so we rent the golf cart the owners offer and it is so fun & helpful. We really appreciate it. We look forward to coming back this winter.Cindy M.

55Shaggy and I had a lovely jaunt! The property is beautiful and well-maintained, and I had no difficulty finding it. It took me a second to figure out the gate latch but I got it! I kept Shaggy on his long line, as his nose is better than his recall skills, and he’s black and super fast with bionic little jumping legs. He was perfectly happy with that! Great spot, thank you!Laura B.

55This was our first Sniffspot we visited and had a great time! Our pup Reggie loved exploring the area and it was a great way to start our off leash training with him. I would highly recommend coming here to let your dogs explore!Mitch S.

55Great spot! We added the golf cart and our dogs really enjoyed running the acreage. It was a welcome break from traveling north. Will visit again if we are able. Kirsti L.

55Really great space! Features woods and an open field area. The trails were awesome and very well maintained. It’s a nice private area to let your dogs do their thing. Has a fence all the way around about 4 ft high so felt very secure. Elise O.

55A perfect place to break a really long work day up with a romp with my dogs and their BFF. Trails look amazing and always maintained incredibly. Not many know just how much work trails on a property are to keep free of fallen trees, mowed and maintained. It’s a never ending task! Thank you M & M! Heather M.

55This was a fantastic place to let our pups run! We added the golf cart and brought our bike and had 3 hours of fun. I can assure you I had some tired fur babies when we left. The owner was friendly and kind. Would highly suggest this for anyone who is interested!Taylor C.

55My dog and I had the whole place to ourselves. The trails are well maintained. I love that the entire area is fenced so he has a safe place to run free. Nikki R.

55Beautiful space! The snow along the main paths was nicely packed down, and walking through the woods was gorgeous. Arrival and entry was seamless. This was the first time we were able to let our new pup off-leash to see how she did! It was the perfect spot to do so. Samantha P.

55We couldn’t have been happier. Beautiful spaces, well-maintained trails, amenities, and an exhausted dog at the end of our hour. The host is gracious and generous with plans for the future like a spot for dogs to swim. Probably the very best day my dog has had since I adopted him. Rachel W.

55An hour is almost too much! My dogs are so excited when we get there. They run and jump and play. They are almost too tired to get back in the car after. A trip to this Sniff Spot is always money well spent! Jen H.

FAQ about our Elk Mound 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Elk Mound 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 14 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 3 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.
