55Wonderful spot!! Host was very kind and left out a towel, sunscreen and some treats! The yard is absolutely gorgeous and just amazing to sit around in the chairs. My dog loved the water! If you have a really reactive dog maybe try around early afternoon time cause we did not see the neighbor dogs at all!!Megan R.

55Absolutely gorgeous fenced in backyard with lots of space to run around and the pool was icing on the cake! Today was my dogs’ first time in a swimming pool and it was such a fun experience!! We will definitely be back again! My only word of caution is that there are some bushes between the property and the neighbor’s property containing green sticky burrs so next time I’ll need to keep my dogs away from that side brush area. 😊 Overall fantastic experience!

All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines.

How do I know if a dog water park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog water parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog water parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to see what kind of water features are offered to make sure it works for your dog. If your dog is not a strong swimmer, then perhaps choose a dog water park with tamer water features rather than a river or beach, for instance. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot water park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Additionally, we recommend following our water safety guidelines.
