Solase Farm Retreat Dog Park In Hampstead MD. | Sniffspot
55We had a slight hiccup when I first arrived. It was my first visit to this spot. I could not let my dogs out because the chickens and goats were out. Thankfully, someone heard me and a very nice man came out. He was not aware of my scheduled visit but it was no problem, he offered to put the goats and chickens in the barn, if I could give him 10 minutes. It was certainly worth the wait. Once out, my dogs had a great time running around. My 10 yo Tyson climbed in and out of the leaf covered stream while my 2 yo Chloe followed but was jumping (not climbing) in, out, and over the bank, and tree limbs. I had not realized just how high and easily she could jump until this visit. They ran around, sniffed, and rolled. The grass was green and mowed short. It was truly a beautiful day. There were several picnic benches on the property to rest or just enjoy the view. I liked the fact that the spot was rather secluded. My dogs loved the water feature playing in it like a pool. It was not too deep for my large dogs. Before I left, Joyce, the owner came home and I was able to speak to her. The owners were great to my dogs and seem to love animals. I would recommend this spot to any dog owner, just be aware the property is unfenced. Hopefully, Tyson, Chloe, and I will be able to visit again soon. Rita C.

55We had the best time here! So much room to run and explore, it was wonderful. We had 11 dogs with us and it was truly a dream come true for them. There’s nothing better than seeing your dogs loose and running free. I would definitely recommend this spot and can’t wait to come back again!
The only thing I would say to be aware of is that there’s a lot of wildlife poo around that is apparently delicious 🤮 Amanda F.

55Another lovely day at Dragonfly Hollow. The farm has been our escape from the madness this summer! Lucie knows exactly where we are as soon as we turn down the driveway, she jumps out of the car and heads straight for the pond. Thank you again, Sarah, for being such a wonderful host!Michele M.

55Lila had a blast per usual. This is our new favorite sniffspot for our dog. I’d 100% percent recommend it. There’s lots of fields to run in and a pond. (: thanks for having us again. Sheniqua L.

55This place was great! My friend and I brought our dogs here. One of them likes to swim and he had a blast swimming in the pond, the other had just as much fun running around the field and outside the pond. It’s a nice shaded spot for the humans to hang as well. We’ll definitely come back!Megan T.

FAQ about our Hampstead 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.
