55My pup and I had a great time here! The facility was clean and they had tons of toys for my dog to play with. They also had water for him and a bathroom for me which was nice. If you have a very reactive dog please note that a person does have to let you in so it may be best to leave your pup in the car while you meet with the person and then go in with your pup after they leave to avoid any stress. The person is only there to let you in and show you how to shut off the lights, they are not there the whole time so it’s still an overall great place to take a reactive pup! We’re looking forward to returning!Jessica L.

55Great spot and so much open running space! A cat did come into the field and my dog was interested/chased but it went through the fence. There are a few spot where the gate/fence meets that a dog can go through if motivated to ;) Laura A.

55A nice big and secure field, there’s dogs in yards butting up to the back gate of the field and you should check the gate on the left hand side and make sure it’s closed if you don’t want your dogs to go to the fence that is near the sheep, but it’s a very lovely spot and my dogs had an absolute blast. No issues with the fences or any kind of fence fighting.
This is a used field for sheep so there is sheep poop about, be aware if you have poop eaters or rollers! The farm owners are super amiable. Definitely recommend! We will be back!Samantha S.

55My lab enjoyed the wide open space + he covered the entire field!! What a wonderful place!! ❤️ he was curious about the sheep ( but they were in a field far away) I walked the entire place and it is totally fenced.I will be returning here...probably a couple of times a week. We brought our lawn chairs and cooler(non alcoholic beverages of course)dog bowl + water.This place is beautiful!! If you have a dog that needs to run; this is the place to go!! You could hear some dogs barking nearby, but couldn't see them. The host,I only saw briefly on the deck of the house. We had total privacy. We actually picked up menus at the pizza place and Chinese place. So we can pick up something afterwards. I highly recommend it here!Stephanie B.

55A nice, open spot! Sammy had lots of fun running and playing catch in the field! He loved smelling all the smells and it was very quiet and peaceful there. Beforehand we did the sheep herding training and he had lots of fun! We hope to come back and do the herding again along with the sniffspot! Kerryn D.

55This space is amazing! I brought two dogs and they had the best time having a safe space to run with no worries! Only call out would be this is a farm so there is poop in the field if you have a dog that will eat poop. My dogs were too busy playing fetch to even notice. We will be back- thank you!!!Kathleen B.

55Great spot to really run. The fencing was secure although a small and skinny dog might be able to squeeze through one of the gates, we had zero problems. The sheep could be heard but not seen from our location. There are couple of big trees in the field that offered some needed shade.Monica Z.

55Nice big space! My friends huskies were not able to be off leash as the fence was not high enough, but we all have an excellent time none the less! My dogs were so happy to be zooming around and smelling the smells!Vanessa S.

55Perfect spot for Australian cattle x Beagles dogs to burn off their energy. I don’t need to have my head on swivel with it being completely secured. The sheep were too far away but they were enchanted with them.
As a travel nurse I appreciate spaces like these will definitely be back!Lisa A.

55Huge fenced in area, my dog had a blast sniffing, exploring and playing with his toys. I didn't see a single dog poop but there is some sporadic sheep poop as to be expected from the location. My dog unfortunately thought the sheep poop was yummy. Would definitely reccomended as long as you don't mind a few sheep poop pellets. There was some mud, also to be expected in March, I appreciated the owner's recommendation to wear boots and bring a towel for your dog. Kathryn M.

FAQ about our Norwell 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.
