55Pepper had a great time with her herding ball. It’s nice to be able to play in the fenced in area. I am renting a Tiny House in Flat Rock, and I don’t have a yard for her to play in.
The area was well manicured and clean, and there was even a water bowl.Tom P.

55It’s a beautiful spot. Will definitely be coming back. The pond was an unexpected and very beautiful feature.
There are two minor things … there is a small area where the fencing meets some wooden posts on the left (in the smaller field I think) that looks like a dog can get through … but only if they were looking for a way out or happened to come up to that exact spot on the fence line. The second item is my dog got through the gate at the end of the property. She is a redbone coonhound so she has a lean physique. Wider / thicker dogs will not be able to get through.
Other than those two very minor items the place was as described, it’s quiet, easy to find, and a lovely location.
Bring your own dog toys and bags to clean up after your pup. Amy M.

55Great spot! My dog Ed loved it and we enjoyed walking the fence line too. At first I was worried about what looked like a gap in the fence but then realized it was just another part of the larger fence. We will be back. Dawn K.

55What a beautiful spot! Well maintained and large field with an attached pond to walk around and explore. There was a water bowl but I brought my own water. My dogs had a big time exploring everything and left tired. We'll definitely be back again!Denise Y.

55Our dogs thoroughly enjoyed off leash roaming at this sniff spot. Gracie even took a splash in the lake while Max enjoyed a more leisurely walk about and rolling in the soft grass. Chester L.

55The directions to the driveway to get to Christopher's acreage are spot on - the unmarked pretty driveway directly across from Rhapa House Church. I walked the average before I let my reactive pup, Sugar out. Always better safe. I saw a beautiful, friendly smallish gray and white cat in the middle of the second area which worried me as my dog is cat-aggressive. The cat left the enclosed area of its own accord so problem solved.
We thoroughly enjoyed our quiet 30+ minutes as it became hot quickly given the weather this week. Half of the acreage is shaded. A large bowl of water was provided but no way to get more unless you bring some yourself. Kim K.

55This is a well maintained, very large, mostly flat, and unwooded area great for frisbee, fetch, and multiple dogs. It’s quiet, fully fenced, and without distractions. I was there at 4:00 pm and there was enough tree shade to stay cool while tossing the ball. I may have missed it but there is no covered structure for rain, seating, and shade. Overall it was as advertised and we had a nice time. James T.

55Absolutely beautiful spot. Definitely our new favorite. Fully fenced and the dogs LOVED going swimming. There was a hammock chair and swing near the water and two chairs in the shade in the first field. The entire pond is fenced in so that was really nice. Did see a few chickens in the field but my dogs are used to it so it wasn't an issue. Can't wait to come back!Monica S.

55A beautiful space for the dogs to play and exercise, and for owners to take in the natural beauty of the area.
Easy to find, clean, mowed, and safe.

55Great sniffspot! The doggos had an awesome time running in the open field and swimming in the pond (which is within the fence). We will definitely be adding this one to our sniffspot rotation. Thank you so much for offering your space! Danielle P.

55Nice spot! Chairs, picnic tables, water source and bowl. The fencing was very secure, which was important for our prey driven hard if hearing boy. First time using a Sniffspot and it was perfect for our dogs, one of which is a rescue who has had little socialization. No dog poop laying around, bags and receptacle available. Perfect!Marla M.

FAQ about our Brevard 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 Brevard 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 111 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 13 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.
