55Great neighborhood, and fully fenced. Low fencing, and there is a school very nearby the house so many people are around, other than that great spot, great area, and has some room to play!Brandon W.

55This is a lovely spot with many amenities. I found recently that it is very nice in the evening as well as the daytime. The family has decorated with lots of little lights on the fence around the yard. I have to just get a neon ball to throw!Crystal A.

55Lovely yard. Unfortunately my dog decided to ignore all the space to run around and spent the whole time trying to scale the woodpile to get into the neighbor’s yard. He got pretty close to succeeding so it’s something to be aware of if you have a strong scent hound who isn’t afraid to climb. Caitlin V.

55We had a wonderful time! The space was safe and secure with lots of toys that my dog and his friend loved. We only saw one dog and person walk by in the alley in our 1.5 hour stay. Thanks for sharing your yard :)Lizzie B.

55Great sniffspot! Very big fenced-in yard where our dog could run to his heart’s content. There were toys provided which he enjoyed. It was easy to find, and had very convenient parking at the back. Very cute and well behaved sheepdog would watch sometimes from the window! Stephanie W.

55I so appreciate this beautiful yard that I can bring my big puppy to run safely! The generous family leave out numerous balls and toys and a large bowl of water. A perfect set up. Picture of my dog resting under the pretty tree after playing fetch.Geri M.

55Jay Jay and I had a wonderful time in this beautiful spot! The owners had messaged me prior to our trip to warn me that the yard may be a little muddy due to the rain, but, by the time we arrived, the sun had dried everything up. Parking was easy, the was plenty of space, and the owners supply you with water, poop bags, hand sanitizer, and a plethora of toys-especially tennis balls (which are Jay Jay’s favorite!)! Would definitely recommend and will definitely be returning! Mike S.

55We had a wonderful time here with our reactive pup! We did run into some issues with her seeing neighbors, but we were prepared for that thanks to the very helpful profile (we were expecting another friend to bring their non-reactive dog, and this was the perfect halfway point for us; however they couldn't make it). We would definitely bring her back for a doggy playdate :)Maya P.

55Our first SniffSpot experience and it couldn't have been better! Huge backyard that the hosts have lovingly filled with toys, treats, water, poop bags, sunscreen, etc. I really appreciate the towel they left out for our dog since it had rained the night before. Charlie had a blast and we will absolutely be back!Rachel H.

55Great space, convenient location for us. Big enough for a big dog to stretch their legs but not too big where you can lose track of the dog. Generous with toys, water, and clean up supplies. ThankzJinny J.

55This was a great experience for my dog! We live in a condo and he is a growing large puppy and needs/loves to run! We will book this spot again. Large yard, plenty of place to run, lots of balls provided and a water bowl - so thoughtful. What an appreciated opportunity!Geri M.

55Our dogs had a blast here! We have one reactive pup who doesn’t get to run around much because we live in Adams Morgan and this was perfect to let him run around with my other dog and my girlfriends dog. The area was well fenced, there was super convenient parking, and there was water bowls, and towels out for paws. Will definitely book again!Josh P.

FAQ about our Lanham 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.
