55Lovely space! Lots of room for our pup to run, and she really enjoyed sniffing around & chasing her call. Easy to get to, parking & access to the yard were straightforward. Appreciated the chairs, water bowl & toys left out for us- that was so sweet. Great spot!!Corrina M.

Martha's 0.5 Acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Park In State College | Sniffspot
55This location is lovely! It's easy to access, with an L-shaped fenced area, making it private and interesting. The landscaping is well maintained and the fence is secure (very important for my dog!). The yard was clean (no other dog poop, yay!). Martha was responsive with a few questions I had before booking. I would definitely return and highly recommend. Robin E.

55So happy this sniffspot opened up in state college!! Perfect size yard to play fetch or for your dog to explore. My 2 friends and I brought our 4 medium size dogs to run for an hour and they had a blast. Owner was very sweet and had clean water bowls by the hose for us and some dog hammocks for the dogs to rest on. Fencing was secure and I wasn't worried about anyone escaping. Great time there, we will be back! Amanda M.

FAQ about our State College 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. 94% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the State College 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 11 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 2 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby.
