55Very clean and so much fun! Sturdy equipment (held 140lb GSD). I know he’s not all the way on it but I just didn’t get a pic when he was! Also a beautiful view to sit and relax. We’ll definitely be back! Sabre M.

55Love this spot and can’t wait to go back!  booked an hour on a hot day, knowing my dog would not last the whole time. The spot is clean, very well stocked with tons of toys and agility challenges. Perfect for play and work! Will be looking into the nose work offered here next time! Great spot! Water was cold :)Noemi L.

55We’ve been here so many times and I can’t say enough good things about it. So much space, all of my dogs favorite toys we’ve originally found here. And she loves to observe what’s going on on the ranch - for my reactive dog this is a great training opportunity in a safe space. Sadie B.

55Today I took my dog for the first time. I hoped for being able to see my dog running freely without worrying about others. The experience was better that I could had anticipated, and I wish I would have discovered this place sooner. It is so clean and harmonious. Great for dogs and great for their owners. We will be back for sure! Isabel S.

55This was our first time using SniffSpot and our first time having somewhere safe and secure and private to let our reactive cattle dog pups run free in a large space. It was wonderful to see them run and play and explore freely off leash without worrying about them getting to strangers or other dogs. We were beyond pleased and our pups are beyond tired from all their fun! We even discovered a few new toys that our pups enjoyed from the selection available. Definitely will be back for more play and to check out the hiking trails! Thank you for having us!!!!Sammantha v.

55This place was so perfect! Achilles is a retired Military Dog (Belgian Malinois) who is so protective of me and his first parent, my husband, that taking him around other people and dogs makes us feel uneasy. Here we could privately and safely let him run full force, run with us too, in way more space than our yard at home has. It was quite windy but had Jennifer kindly given us a heads up (the wind out there gets cold). We opted to go for it anyways and bundled up perfectly. Achilles wore himself out in no time lol. Great way to spend his 6th birthday! The place was easy to book, easy to find and everything we’ve been looking for. Thank you so much and we can’t wait to come back!Sunny T.

55Dex had an awesome time here! We did all of his training and it was amazing being able to challenge him more without having any anxiety about him escaping or running into another anxious dog. Easy to access, totally perfect spot for some low key socialization for Dex too. It’s not often he gets to hear dogs and horses while safely exploring or doing place work. It is also roomy enough that it feels nothing like the yards he is used to — so an added challenge to relax in so much space. He wasn’t able to fully relax and play yet, probably because of the other dogs he was hearing, but I’m confident he will next time and that’s exactly the type of safe exposure I’m always looking for to train him. He’s from Ridgeway, CO, and it kind of felt like a mini-trip back home. So grateful for this spot! Will totally be back. Shanta L.

55We've been coming to Sunny Day Acres for almost 2 years now. We love it!! It's a drive for us, but the only SniffSpot where our two GSDs can truly be their happy selves--sprinting after balls, jumping in the pool, and tipping over the water bowls (then sprawling in the mud). ❤Abby V.

55Great place to have your furry friend let off excess energy. It's not too difficult to find, provided you follow the directions they provide. It's evident what this place is as soon as you enter their gates (dog academy more like), the dog park is separate from the obstacle course, which we will try next time we book. My 3 dogs loved every minute they were there, they ran up and down with the balls and thrower this is provided for each visitor. This by far beats any public dog park there is. We will be back.Joe S.

55This is my favorite Sniffspot to visit! The facility is fantastic and Pepper has an incredible time running around, playing, and then decompressing. It’s awesome!! There’s so much to explore. I absolutely adore the farm animals on the property. The horse is my favorite especially. Jess L.

55Able to let them off leash in two fenced areas before putting the leashes back on and taking a nice hike. Getting some energy out first makes the leashed hike a little easier.Stephanie K.

FAQ about our Acton 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 Acton 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 310 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 47 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.
