55We had a great time and will definitely be back! The yard was perfect to throw the ball and I appreciated all the toys available. My pup didn’t use the pool but it was filled and ready. I also shade available so my long haired dog could cool off.Rachel S.

55We just had a blast at doggie Disneyland! My two golden retrievers are now doghausted and loved the pool, the wide variety of toys, and the large expanse of free space to run in. My pups loved the tennis balls, the big dog soccer ball, and the gigantic rubber tug toy! We will definitely be back to get the pups “good” tired! A+ experience!Heidi M.

55This was our first sniff spot and it was fantastic! It was clean and fully fenced. They provided toys, a pool (we didn’t use) and water. There were some dogs on one side if the fence who barked at us quite a bit when we first arrived but that stopped after a few minutes. Dexter loved running and played fetch the entire time we were there. Katelyn C.

55Always a great time! Dexter was so excited when we pulled up. He knew exactly where we were going when we got him out of the car and he didn’t want to leave when it was time to go home. Katelyn C.

55This is a great yard! Much bigger than it looks and wide open for lots of running and sniffing. There was a dog on the other side of the very far fence that was pretty unhappy we were there but mostly it didn't affect anything. The toy selection was awesome, lots of water and bags, super easy parking and clear directions - highly recommended!Kj H.

55One of our favorite regular spots. The lights at night are great during the winter, helping us track our dogs and what they’re doing when the sun goes down. The yard is large and well kept, and access to it is super easyMartin T.

55Great spot for the pups to run around! Hank LOVED the doggy pool and Remy had a blast sniffing around the yard. The neighbor dog did come out and was barking at our pups for a bit, but our dogs were able to focus elsewhere. Just something to keep in mind if your pups are extra reactive! The selection of toys was also great and loved having the hoses accessible as well. We had fun!
