55Y’all have to check this place out!! Absolutely our new favorite spot. When you arrive you can just follow along the cornfields and you will find countless places for your dog to run, sniff, and play! There’s a creek with some trails through the woods and a ton of space to run along the cornfield. Feels super private and quiet. Amazing place to let our reactive city pup run off leash but even if you’re not comfortable going off leash this place is still worth it as an on leash hike - great place for a long line!! We saw some deer so just be aware if your dog likes to chase wildlife. Emily M.

55Bring your hiking boots! Lots of great sniffing opportunities but it could get muddy on a rainy day. I didn’t notice any other animals around which was perfect for my reactive dog. He had a ballast zooming around the trails and through the woods. Kaya R.

55AMAZING!!! they really put in care to making sure it’s a dog friendly space and making sure there’s no nooks and cranny’s for your favorite trouble maker 😆. The yard is so big and beautiful, we use sniff spots for meet and greets for our foster dogs and there was also a really beautiful patio area, as well as a picnic table at the back of the yard. Seriously amazing bang for your buck 🤩 Samantha T.

55This yard is beautiful! My backyard isn’t fenced, so my dog always has to be on a long-line whenever we’re outside. He didn’t know what to do with all this space! He’s spent the first 10 minutes or so just exploring and running free off leash. By the end of our visit, he had a huge, blissed out grin on his face. The only downside is my dog loves to swim, so he kept running back trying to find a way in the pool wanting to jump in. We will be back for sure!Cheryl S.

55Our first time visiting a SniffSpot and it was great! This spot is exactly as listed, very clean, good amenities, and a great balance of sun and shade! My little guy had a blast and the fencing was secure enough for my 12 pound ball of energy! Entry instructions were clear and parking is right outside the entry/exit gate. Would definitely recommend and will be back soon. Thanks so much!Melanie M.

FAQ about our Finksburg 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.
