55This was my first experience with Sniffspot and it was wonderful! The yards were huge with plenty of space for my leggy girl to romp. She enjoyed running, soaking up some sun, staring at the horses, and she even tried some of the agility obstacles. The hosts have some toys, bags, and treats; basically everything you’d need for a fun visit!Kelsey J.

55There are 4 different fields to choose from and a barn for them to explore. We only used the ability field and they loved it! There are toys for them to play with and plenty of sticks to throw. We definitely will be back and trying a different field. The host is also very kind, she let us ask her questions and talked for a little bit. Definitely 10/10 experience!Dallas S.

55Doggy heaven! Such a beautiful place and area. Kathy has a welcome station with all the necessities, including hand sanitizer, poop bags, and treats. There are mellow horses next door that my dog was fascinated by - a fun bonus. Kathy was also so nice to offer a neat toy for Luna to play with - I forgot my stuff in the car - and we had a great time. Can’t wait to visit again! Anna H.

55Our puppers, Bella, is a 1 year old pittie mix and can be reactive towards other dogs. This was a great place for her to run around and have lots of fun! The neighbor’s horses did not seem to bother her much. She loved the squirrel teaser toy! Can’t wait till we come back to play!!! Thanks for being such a great host!Jen H.

55Great large field, completely fenced in. Host has a lunge stick with a toy at the end that our dog loves, she was smiling the entire time and is happily asleep now. Will certainly be back. Grateful thank you to our host!John S.

55We forgot to take pics but we did post a few great vides on our insta page! We loved it. The fields were a bit wet post prior days rain but we were prepared with boots. The horses came to say hello over the fence and were tolerant of my pups barking a little. Fields were poo free and fresh water was out for them. Gwen P.

55Only one field open, but very quiet and safe. There is one small opening on the right bottom, so if you have a small pup, watch that corner for potential escape.

55Everything went very smoothly - with four areas, there are great options for the pups to play. Details on the play areas and some treats/accessories are available at the "check in table". The one field we played in was clean and fully fenced. Plenty of grass, no dirt or mud areas. Definitely plan on visiting again!Mark W.

55This is such a great spot. Marygrace leaves everything you need at the checkin table, and even gave us a fun flirt pole to use. Duma had a great time with the horses. Caitlin A.

55We had a great time! Checking in was easy and there were treats and waste bags. There were buckets of water for the pups to enjoy in between running around. Only one field was open, but it was the largest one, with more than enough room for three Great Danes and a lab/beagle mix to run and play. Bonus: The horses next door kept the pups intrigued!

55First, I was impressed with the owner's quick replies to my questions, accommodations and offering to make our proposed visit with our small child even more comfortable. This Sniffspot is clearly marked and self sufficient. It was a fully fenced large flat yard with nice short green grass, shade in parts of yard, trees to sniff/mark, a bench, water bowls, hose access, dog toys, dog baby pool available, and even a "fire hydrant" for dog enrichment. I was worried that one of my three dogs wouldn't be able to get over the horses next door, but he did. The other fields weren't open, but we were very happy where we were. There is some puddling that seems to occur along the far back fence bordering the woods after a recent rain, but it is out of the way and there's the hose to rinse any muddy paws that might happen. (Only one of my dogs discovered that spot, and bottom of paws just needed a quick wipe.) We visited near Easter, and the owner had nicely put out Easter eggs with dog treats as a little gift to visitors. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and look forward to having this as a go-to place for full-out running and exploring.Stacie B.

55The bottom field was fantastic and my dogs had a wonderful time running and sniffing every inch. The small bench is a wonderful addition for their human! :)Ashley L.

55Very nice property. Well maintained. Chairs and/or a bench in each field. Water available although we brought our own. Some agility equipment in one field. The dogs had a blast. They really loved the big field next to the horses (especially one of our two who thought it was great fun to go up to the fence and bark at them.). Will definitely visit again.Mitzi B.

FAQ about our Hughesville 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.
