55Wonderful location - so beautiful with wide open spaces, trails, trees, etc. Trails are clearly marked with lots of room to run. Plenty of great “sniff” areas that totally gave my dogs a workout. They loved looking at the goats and chickens and I loved the water stations. Our host was exceptional with communications and rescheduling due to a work conflict was easy. Can’t wait to bring my fur babies back here again. Allyson B.

55Our pup had a blast exploring this property and meeting the goats (through the fence). Lots of land to run on - half of it is fenced in but even the half not fenced in is isolated and has a trail marked on it so we were happy to use both. It rained recently so our pup also found a great mud pit to lay in. Excellent property!Em H.

55Awesome place! My two dogs loved it. So much fun to run around and be free. Very clean and nice paths. Great you could just pull in the gate and it was all fenced. Good place to stop if picking up someone from airport. Thank you! Katharine C.

55This place was AMAZING! My pup loves hiking and it felt like we were and it’s better bc he loved being off leash. The maps were perfectly made and were so helpful. The host was so nice and my pup had a perfect bday!chapel B.

55My dogs had so much fun, especially the younger one who loves to run. It was awesome knowing that even when she was out of sight she was safe due to the good fencing. The goats in their pen were mildly interesting, but she had never seen a chicken before and was fascinated watching them in their coop. Overall a great place for any dog to explore. I'll definitely be back!shelby y.

55We had a great time with our dog Drew. It took him some time to get used to the chickens, goats and rabbit but once we were past that, he had an amazing time. We didn't venture onto the non-fenced trails but the property we played in was great! Several areas with chairs and trails throughout. There were also areas without trails if your dog likes to venture off the trail, but still within the gate. If your dog is a jumper or is tall, the fencing around the property is great, just be aware that the top of the fence is barbed wire- roughly 4' off the ground. We didn't have any issues because our dog is smaller, but something to be aware of. 5 Stars, look forward to coming back!Thomas C.

55Great place to bring your dog(s). Clearly marked trails and a really nice size property that allows for exploring and lots of sniffing. The chickens and goats are cute. Bella became a bit too obsessive with that part of it and I couldn’t get her to refocus so we left early. Next time I’ll invite a friend for her to play with to distract from that.
Highly recommend this spot! Suzanne E.

55My pup had a great time on this trail. It was clean and comfortable and there was a lot to sniff! My dog wasn’t sure how she felt about the goats (kept in an enclosure) but they were fascinated by her and we humans humans thought they were very cute 😂. We had a great time! Would definitely book again. Dru R.

55My dog enjoyed running the trails, meeting the goats, and sniffing all the things. We arranged to meet the owners dog, Amber, beforehand. Amber showed our dog around and to the water bowls. It was a great time!Cathy H.

55A nice spot for running around and exploring! We liked the trails and that a lot of it is woods. The goats and bunnies blew my dog’s mind a little but she’ll definitely be tired now. 🤦♂️Gina T.

55This is the best place ever to train my dog to recall. Every time we visit, he improves. Plus with 5 acres of fenced in woods, he runs like a greyhound. I LOVE this site and the hosts are amazing.Christine S.

55The location was easy to find and the maps of the space were very helpful! Bright flags edged the pathways. My dog enjoyed herself so much! I was concerned she might fixate on the livestock (goats, chickens, rabbits) in their secure pens, but thankfully she did not and they were pretty nonplussed about her. We had a great time and look forward to returning. Thank you!M H.

55Such a nice location and walk for my girls. Beautiful. One of my dogs is 17 years old and she loved it. Felt like she was trail blazing but easy paths for her to follow. Marianne C.

55This Sniffspot is a diamond…Pops, who is a foster, spent the last 2 years in a shelter and so being able to see him run and play is the best…the marked path by the owners is so thoughtful and a fun surprise were the goats…lisa h.

FAQ about our Stem 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Stem 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 125 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.
