55Beautiful yard with lots of areas for the dogs to sniff, plenty of room to run, lots of shady areas to lay and fresh water left out. There was a dog in the yard to the north when we arrived but he was not reactive at all, just very curious. Our dogs did not even notice him. Kelly H.

55Had a great time! So much shade and soft grass to run around in! There are a couple neighboring dogs to the back that didn’t seem to like my dog, but I was able to keep him away from the back fence easily! Other than that it was beautiful and comfortable!Alayna H.

55This was my first Sniffspot session and it was awesome! The instructions on where to park and how to access the yard were perfect. My communications with the host were so helpful & friendly. Best of all, my reactive dog had the most fun running and fetching. We can’t wait to book another session with this host. Elizabeth M.

55Nice large sniffspot with plenty of running and sniffing room. There are chickens in view from the backside of the property in the neighbor's yard, if that's a concern. Cheryl W.

55This was our first visit to any sniff spot. It was clean and spacious and our dogs had a good time there! It was good to have a new space to explore. I appreciated that water was available.
I will say that little dogs might find ways to wiggle through some gaps in the fence, but that wasn’t a problem for us.Julie S.

55Easy enough for my first time using sniffspot. I would CAUTION the road can be pretty busy and parking on the easement made me a bit uncomfortable. Also, my border collie ran straight through the entry gate (30lb dog) and my rott got her head stuck trying to follow. I managed to get it unhooked with a little patience but it wasn’t the easiest thing with a blockhead stuck and causing tension. It’s a nice yard and they have plenty of toys for your dog to use. Yes, there was dog poop. But it was the kind of dog poop you only find by stepping in it — nothing glaringly obvious and it’s a popular spot so unavoidable. There was water for the dogs to drink and the dogs had a blast.Katarina C.

55Great and clean space! Easy to find. The neighbor does have a dog, there is a fence but just beware if you have a dog that is scared of other dogs 😊Sierra D.

55Great, clean place to let the dogs run! It was nice to have grass and no mud. The dog next door was out and very visible from the space. It was quiet and a non issue for our dogs but something to consider for people with reactive dogs. We hope to be back soon! Katie S.

55My dog and I had a great time. The yard was very clean. We had a fresh snow and my doggo loves to roll in the snow, so I think he left even cleaner than he was when we arrived. Much better than a muddy dog park. My dog had a blast sniffing and exploring the nice big yard. We will definitely be coming back! Deb E.

55This is a great spot. So much room for pups to run around and lots of exciting places to sniff. It's safe and fully fenced.
There is a neighbor dog in the next yard who came up to the fence to say hi, but then observed from a distance the rest of the time.
We highly recommend it!Andrea A.

55My pup spent the majority of the visit sniffing around and it tired him out quick! His favorite attraction was the big tree in the corner. Plus we didn’t see or hear any other dogs! Overall, great visit 😊Cailyn S.

55Easy to find, chairs to sit in, and a really great location in Boulder. My puppy loved rustling in the leaves, finding big and small sticks, and sniffing around the big tree in the corner. Was clean enough for me to feel safe letting him wander without me hovering (minus one poop bag left behind by a previous visitor that I had to wrestle away from him). Awesome play time experience.

FAQ about our Boulder 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.
