55It was our very first Sniffspot visit and it turned out to be wonderful and so worth driving to! It was easy to find, the instructions were clear. The fields are fenced, beautifully maintained, all thick grass no mud, and even a bench to sit! There was also a hose with water but we brought our own water. We only used one of the fields, not enough time to explore all of them! Lots of playing mixed with training and running full speed and relaxing and listening to silence. Our dog LOVED it! Thank you so much Marygrace for sharing your beautiful space with us!Oksana B.

55We had an amazing time! The large field is HUGE. Great place to throw a toy or work on training in a safe environment. Highly recommend and can’t wait to go back!Rebekah M.

55Wow! Our dog had a blast! He usually just sits in the grass and doesn't run or play. But here he played fetch and even met some horses! What a beautiful property and we will be back for sure! Thank you!Stacy L.

55Outstanding spot for dogs to play. Our three dogs had so much fun running in the big field that we didn't even make it to the agility field - next time! We appreciated the clear signage and all the tools and info at the welcome table. Thanks, Marygrace, we can't wait to come back!Sarah G.

55We had a wonderful experience! We only used the biggest area (the field), and my pups absolutely loved it! Tons of room for them to sprint, play around, sniff, and just be dogs. MaryGrace had out buckets of water as well as a kiddie pool that my older dog took full advantage of as the morning humidity started kicking in. We'll definitely be back! Alyssa B.

55Marygrace’s place is so fantastic. Big, well fenced, really well taken care of fields. Toys, treats, water, poop bags, and more provided. The property is beautiful. Everything was perfect and our dog had a blast. Kate A.

55We had a great time this morning despite the midsummer MD heat in full swing. We explored the agility area which had some nice shade, and my dogs enjoyed figuring out the tunnel. This sniffspot is way better than any dog park we've found in the area!Alyssa B.

55Addie was sooo happy here! We only explored the big area, and Addie loved running around and seeing the horses next-door. There was a kiddie pool as well as some buckets filled with water for Addie to drink in the yard. Before entering the yard, there was a table with bug spray, hand sanitizer, a first aid kit, doggie poop bags, and some toys, which were all so thoughtful. We will definitely return!Alyssa J.

55My sister and I and our combined three dogs have started making this a regular excursion from DC. Our dogs love it so much, and it's nice to sit in the shade of the tall trees and watch them run and play. Thanks, Marygrace, for sharing your beautiful space!Sarah G.

55Our first time at this blissful spot. My dog Moses had a great time. He is a fearful and reactive and Marygrace was 100% understanding of that. We walked the perimeter on leash as suggested but also think it was good to do so he could take it all in before letting him off leash to do whatever the heck he wanted. YaY!!Kim J.

55Our second visit was great. My scaredy dog got to encounter 2 horses. bc he was barking at them (and shaking) and i know nothing about horses, like if they get mad, after a few minutes we put Moses on a leash and moved away. Luckily it was about time to go anyway. Kim J.

FAQ about our Lothian dog parks
