55This was the first time we visited this Sniffspot, I have 6 dogs and we all had a blast. It is just a perfect spot for the dogs to run, explore and play. The owner was very helpful, had toys, bags, a map of the property and suggestions for which trail to take first. We loved it and will definitely be back!!!Sheila G.

55This place is amazing! By far the best Sniffspot we’ve been to. It’s got something for every type of dog- water for swimming, trails for sniffing/exploring, and a huge open area for the dogs that just need to open up and run! We took our Pittie and Aussie (2 very different interests) and they are both totally beat 😂 We cannot wait to go back! Rachel B.

55Amazing spot! My pup loved playing fetch in the semi tall grass fields. He also loved swimming in the pond and stomping around the creek. Amazing spot with a little bit of everything: a creek, pond, trails, and open fields. Plus the pond and creeks water was crystal clear! Ricky C.

55What a wonderful spot with everything you might need! My dog loved playing ball and running in the huge open space then cooling off in the water. We also enjoyed the peaceful nature trails. The spot owners were truly kind in helping me when I had trouble locating the spot. We will definitely visit again! Kate B.

55We spent almost the whole day there and had such a great experience! The priority is absolutely beautiful and we had the most amazing views and photo opportunities! There is everything a dog could ask for: pond, stream, trails, and large open field! The owner Adam was very friendly, welcoming and accessible for questions which was helpful to me because this was the first time I had ever used the app. It was my first place, but I just know it will be my favorite! I am already planning on going back for another full day! It was such a
great time for bonding with my soon to be 1 year old GSD and was just not a fun time but great for a mental health day!Diana B.

55The spot was so well maintained, it gave choices for being on "trails" and exploring or in a huge field playing. We discovered they have curiosity about water. Can't wait to come back when it's warmer. Tiffany T.

55The place was incredible!!! The host had a table set up complete with a map of acreage, walking stick, toys for the pups and a baggie of treats. The trash can for the puppy “poo” was located by the entrance and evenincluded a fully stocked baggie station if you needed extra.
The walking area satisfied my pups entire checklist. Walk in the woods? Check. Huge open area to play? Check. Pond to explore? Check. Path that included some minor agility? Check. My Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and his friends explored everything and this place got a five paw rating!!!Cynthia A.

55This dog park is a must! Peaceful, tranquil retreat with its beautiful surrounding. My dogs thoroughly enjoyed the vast 5-acre all fenced in park, and I appreciated the opportunity to not only relax but also get some invigorating exercise in such a picturesque setting. Going back soon!Beata S.

55Have been here twice but forgot to review the first time. We enjoyed it here. I messaged the host with a question about where to park/go the first time and they replied promptly. There is a mix between unfenced and fenced areas. We stayed mostly in the larger fenced area, which seemed secure, even for my 20 lb dog. Lots of things to sniff and room to run. There are people and dogs around sometimes since this is a training facility, but this is stated in the listing. There is an agility course in the unfenced area, which my dog explored as we were leaving. Rob R.

55Fantastic sniffspot place! There are in fact, 3 separate fields. It was perfect for our doggy family because we were able to keep our 2 big dogs separate from our small dog in the two adjacent Fields. Everyone had a great time!Mildred C.

FAQ about our Shepherdstown 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.
Are dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Shepherdstown area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 218 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 27 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
