What people say about dog parks around Lawrence, Kansas

Kalix S.

May 2024

This was my first time using SniffSpot and it couldn’t have gone better. The host, Rachael, was very friendly. The property itself was beautiful and my two dogs had a blast running through the grass and seeing the horses in the neighboring pastures. We were there for about 45 minutes, which was enough time to do 2 laps around the pastures and have a water break. By the end my dogs were exhausted and happy. Overall, a great experience!

Great area to run around in! There are openings in the fences so if your pup is an escape artist they will probably be able to find their way out. However, the fields are so big that mine had so many things to smell and he was not interested in leaving the area!

My pups and I really enjoyed our visit here! Plenty of space to run around in a nice, peaceful environment. Denise was friendly and accomodating.

Beautiful yard with plenty of room to run and play. My 3 dogs really enjoyed the space. They are reactive with other dogs so they don’t get to go to many places off leash. Would definitely come again.

My basenji was one happy camper at this sniffspot! Very quiet, no visible distractions. He sniffed and rolled around in the soft grass to his heart's content.

Well secured and maintained! The owner even accommodated us on a pretty last minute reservation, which I really appreciate.

Wonder space for pups and people!! A few previous people maybe forgot to pick up after their dogs, but lovely overall!!!

Great space for my doggo! My dog had a blast and so did I. Plus, the host left a bowl of green beans for him to munch on (his faves). Definitely will book Audrey’s Sniffspot again!

Erica R.

Audrey's yard was perfect for our 2 medium and large pups. It was spacious for them to run and explore and she even provided potty bags, toys, and treats! The pool is a perfect touch, but if you have a big dog it might be tricky getting them in and out. Definitely worth trying though, we definitely did! We plan on making this sniffspot a weekly family activity for us. Thank you for sharing your yard with us, Audrey!!

We had a fabulous time at Audrey's and will be back on a regular basis. We haven't even begun working on recall, and I still would recommend Audrey's place for exercise and stimulation. We did not do the pool so I can't comment on that area, and I agree with the prior review that blocking off the hot tub in the long-run would add security. For us, that was not issue, nor were gaps in boards (50-lb dog). The yard is a beautiful area with lots of landscaping that added to my pup's sniffari experience. There are two patches of more extended grass that was perfect for throwing toys (that Audrey provided) and getting out the zoomies. My pup, who gets walked four times/day, but doesn't get to relax and run off leash was laying happily in the grass after half an hour.

The best Sniff Spot we’ve been to! We booked this spot last-minute during a cross-country road trip, and Audrey was so communicative, accommodating, and thoughtful, even leaving towels, toys, and treats out for us. Safe and secure fence and not a hazard or danger in sight (trust me, our two large dogs get into everything, and there wasn’t a single thing that concerned me in this yard). This Sniff Spot was an absolute delight for our dogs and for us, our dogs played hard and slept harder afterwards, and we enjoyed the shady and comfortable backyard oasis. Book this Sniff Spot!!!

The engaging environment was perfect for my small, older dog who doesn’t just run around in the yard for the sake of it but loves to explore! Thank you!

Andrea was great and very accommodating. Her yard is huge and my two girls really enjoyed their visit. Andrea was quick to respond to all my questions and she was very gracious. We will be repeat customers!

My two dogs and I had the best time! The host left treats, toys, and water out as well. I have a large and medium dog so the high fences were perfect. We will definitely be coming back!

Wonderful shady spot, enjoyable for my pups and myself. The fence is very sturdy and all gaps are covered securely. Host was friendly and considerate.

We are a repeat visitor. My two small dogs love this beautiful space. The host always leaves water, treats and toys. There is also access to a sprinkler shower type hose, if needed. We love our visits and this lovely space.

Our dog Luna had a wonderful time running around this large yard and sniffing every nook & cranny! There was water for her when she needed it, chairs for us to sit on, and lots of toys to play with. She was very happy the whole time we were there, and we can’t wait to go back! ❤️
