55Our dogs had a wonderful time playing, sniffing, and running! The whole play area was fenced and there were tunnels for them to explore and run through. The waste stations are great and there were benches and places to sit as well! We will definitely be back!Elizabeth L.

55Our dogs don’t have place to run free so they love coming here and so do we. Clean, well supplied and a solid fence so if they run out of sight we don’t have to worry.Angela E.

55This spot is soooooo WONDERFUL!!! 9 acres to roam and run. It gives me such joy to see my two furs roaming free. And for me to be hands free and strolling along with them without holding on to their leashes is such a gift!! My one dog checked the entire perimeter of the fence and it is fully secure!!!
Very clean and lush!! elizabeth K.

55This is the best Sniffspot! It is clean, well maintained, and safe. I tend to be anxious letting my dog off leash for safety reasons and this is a spot where I feel comfortable doing this and can relax and enjoy my time with him. Have been to this spot before and will keep going again and again! Laney R.

55My dogs had so much fun running around! Unfortunately it's a 2.5 hour drive from where I live, but the next time we're passing through the area I will definitely plan another visit. The area was clean, well marked, and very secure. Lori W.

55Awesome place as usual. Spacious and clean. Some holes, but no big deal. A smaller dog like the one who came with us (less than 15#) might be able to fit through the gate on the side if interested, but she did not.
I liked the new sign for in use/open.Rob R.

55Always a great space. Our pup always has a great time and nice trees for her to cool off in the shade. They are very understanding of reactive dogs and have lots of safeguards to prevent Any interactions or incidents. Also the host is very understanding with excellent communication.

55Best Sniffspot I’ve been to. Even better now with improvements to the parking area. You can’t beat it because of the size. The fence is very secure so that i don’t have to worry about my dog even when she has run out of sight. It’s very peaceful and has lots of trees, so plenty of shade. Sarah S.

55This is the perfect place to let two high energy GSP’s just run off leash without any worry. It is very clean and well maintained. You have a nice trail that leads you to your spot. Kathy is quick to get back to you if you have any questions or need anything. I will come back, we’ll worth it.

55This sniffspot is such a find! My 1yo lab was in heaven! The Acres is a lovely tranquil place, fully and securely fenced. Nine acres creatively and conscientiously planned. There is a huge open field for running and lure course if you choose (which we did and it was great fun!)… low rolling hill with bushes to wind in/out… several well kept benches/swings… trees with ample shade… barrel tubes to run through… and a lovely perimeter walk of the fence-line. Safety and cleanliness are obviously at the top of Kathy’s list. No doubt this property is a labor of love. We enjoyed our afternoon play, the lure course, and the one-on-one training we scheduled for after (yes, Kathy is an amazing trainer too!). I can’t say enough nice things about The Acres and Kathy. Just lovely! ;)Kristin W.

FAQ about our Lincoln University 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 Lincoln University area are 5 stars.

You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 290 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 42 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.
