55This was a great spot for my boy to stretch his legs! Lots of trees and bushes to sniff. Mosquitos were minimal (bug spray thoughtfully provided). There are small gaps at the gate closures, so if someone had a very small dog (like >10lbs) they could possibly slip out. Not an issue for us though. A very successful first trip on Sniffspot!Jodi M.

55A very nice yard to run and play! Unfortunately my guy was scared of all of the traffic sounds from it being on a busy road and he didn’t get much play time in. But we were able to relax a bit and sniff around! Megan C.

55Good place for the dogs, mostly quiet, just the road is very close. Place is secure enough to contain dogs. We got little unlucky and someone was picking up some weeds/flowers near the fence and my dog is reactive, but otherwise place is quite enough! Silvia B.

55Easy to find/ location is by a busy road so if your doggie doesn’t do well with that than not for you.
My dog explored and sniffed a lot enjoyed running trough out the yard. Shady spots lots of trees but places to sit if wanted sun. Host left out bug spray and there was a hose for water. Great yard to relax as Buddy plays. 5 stars for me.

55This was beyond perfect for my pups! So much space to run around without a care in the world. They especially loved the little wooded area in the back corner that is within the fenced in area. The host had a clean water bowl out with water in it and offered to use his hose to refill it! This is a perfect yard for any dog without a trigger to cars/high traffic area. Other than that, no other dogs/animals around. Minus a few birds. We will definitely be back ☺️Brittney G.

55Great space for running, fetching and relaxing in shady areas. Fun wooded area in back. Some gaps in gate could be easy for mini doggies to squeeze through.
Read other reviews and saw that someone has a male version of my pup! Same age too. Wish I could reach other sniff spot users for a play date!

FAQ about our Wauconda 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.
