Our dog loved swimming in the pool and running in the yard. Pool was clean, fence was secure, and there were plenty of chairs (in the shade!) for the humans. We would love to come back if the pool is open for much longer!

Today my boyfriend and I brought our pup Shiloh to this Sniffspot and needless to say, he loved it! He had such a great time with all the toys in the yard and it was nice to see many shaded spots available for him to cool down. We tried to encourage him to swim in the swimming pool (which was so nice!!) but considering he’s never swam before he wasn’t a fan but we got him to do it. We will absolutely be back!!

Absolutely perfect spot to take your water loving dogs!!!! Patricia is incredibly nice and accommodating! Completely secure fenced in large dog friendly yard and the pool is even bigger than expected. I could have stayed here all day. We were having such a blast I didn’t even think about getting on my phone to take photos but it’s beautiful like the other photos! You won’t regret booking! We can’t wait to come back!!

Loved bringing my dog, Holly here! Patricia was so helpful and very communicative. She let us know exactly how to use the gate and everything looked just as the pictures + reviews. Very clean as well, Holly had a blast swimming and playing in the sand. It rained a little during our visit but there was a big umbrella to sit under while Holly ran around in the rain.

Fantastic spot! We had a great time. Zeke wasn’t sure how to use the stairs, so we will have to be back again to fully teach him, but he loved exploring the yard and getting his feet wet!

My pups had so much fun! The pool and garden are beautiful and we can’t wait to come back. We even ended up extending our time a second hour while we were there because we were having so much fun

This was our first ever experience at a Sniff Spot and it was fantastic! The space was awesome! The pool was super (my husband and I were a bit jealous of our pups!), there was ample and super comfy seating...not one thing was overlooked to make the space enjoyable for the four-legged and two-legged Sniff Spotters! Can't wait to go back! Highly recommend!!!

Fence secure, hostess very nice and my 2 dogs had a great time sniffing. One dog jumped into the very clean pool a couple times. We will go back again.

Place was awesome. Great and friendly hosts. Great pool and beach area. Plenty of room for my 5 dogs. Very accommodating hosts. My gang had a blast. Fresh water and lots of toys too. Would highly recommend to anyone

Anna M.

The pool was clean, and the host was very pleasant to chat with through the app. There are toys provided, so if you have a dog that eats things it shouldn't, I recommend close supervision. The neighbors dogs did come up to the fence while we were there so if you have a reactive dog I would not recommend. Overall a good Sniffspot and we hope to be back!

This was a great spot. We were introducing our pup to water for the first time. He wasn’t super sure, but it was great to have a spot that was private and clean. And the sand is a nice touch. He has plenty of space to get the zoomies out.

Great spot. My dog loved being off lease. He could explore the space and run. I would suggest bringing mosquito repellent spray.

FAQ About Poughkeepsie 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.

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.
