55This was our first time using Sniffspot and it couldn’t have been a better experience! Our 3 pups had an absolute blast running around this beautiful property! The agility equipment set up in the separate fenced enclosure was an added bonus! Our pups didn’t quite figure out how to use all of it yet lol but maybe we can work on it some more next time! The host has thought of everything at this Sniffspot - a canopied sitting area, additional chairs, water bowls, toys, a wood chip play area with lots of agility equipment, and 2 fenced enclosures (a smaller one for the agility area and a larger one including a wooded hillside). The trees provided some much appreciated shade on a hot summer day! I told the host beforehand that 2 of our dogs are reactive, so she just waved at us through the window when we pulled up. We never heard a peep from other people or dogs during our visit. There were no adjacent neighbors. So it was a perfect environment for our reactive pups! We will definitely be back! Thank you Melissa for sharing your beautiful property with us! :)Amy E.

55I couldn't believe how perfect this is, and how accommodating the host is. I'm at a loss for words to describe it. Amenities are simply perfect for dogs and humans alike. Serene, tranquil nature to escape. It's clean, safe, with amenities like bathroom, and sink to clean up afterwards. Agility equipment are in great shape. There's even a pergola and chairs for respite. We couldn't believe how much fun we had, and lost track of time.Na L.

55Absolutely UNREAL! I would give 100 stars if I could. The spot was stunning and the host was so kind. Our husky had the time of her life. It was like her own private hike without the unpredictable off-leash dogs. ALSO! There are so many hummingbirds 🤩 So soooo worth the drive 😁 Brenna H.

55Melissa’s place was amazing! It exceeded our expectations. Our dogs were so pumped when they arrived. It was like Disney land for our pups. Definitely recommend!! We have a very reactive pup and it was great to see him run around, and not have to worry about him! Meghan C.

55We had an amazing time at Melissa's spot! My pup LOVED running free through the forest area and playing with the agility equipment. I was able to relax and enjoy the beauty too knowing that she was totally safe. The fence was very secure and communication from Melissa was great. We'll definitely be back!Courtney D.

55After hiking with our reactive foster dog on leash for two months, our hearts were aching to let him explore off leash with our other pups. We stumbled upon this oasis after following SniffSpot on Instagram when they first started and ugh, what a beautiful thing!
Melissa's spot is gorgeous, remote and feels like you're exploring virgin pine forests. The fence was about 5' tall and secure around the entire perimeter. No other pets or critters around! My dogs are not agility inclined but had fun running up and down some of the equipment to the wooded area. There's a dirt road to the property that should be accessible to all cars, my CX-5 had no problem. Highly recommend; we will continue driving one hour each way to get our sweet foster Rio some off leash mountain time! Katie G.

55Melissa was incredibly accommodating. We are driving on a cross country road trip, and she blocked off the entire evening so that we would be able to visit her spot. Unfortunately, I didn’t take time zones into account and so we weren’t able to go. But Melissa was so responsive and understanding- we will definitely be stopping here whenever we are traveling back!Sara L.

55This is the second time we’ve been here and it’s great. I boarded my dog and wanted him to have some time to decompress before heading home. Two hours of sniffing in the woods and a bit of playing with the agility equipment was perfect. My guy is fearful/reactive and this place is perfect for him - we waved at the owner through the window but saw/heard no one. Total privacy. MaKenna D.

55Excellent communication from the host. The place is lovely and the amenities really made a difference (water, agility equipment). It's a very pretty drive from Denver but be prepared for a kind of rough dirt road on the final couple miles. If you actually follow the directions you'll find it easy enough. Took us a couple tries😛. The fencing makes the space very secure. Lots of trees, rocks and terrain to explore. Finn had fun roaming, playing on the agility equipment and trying to break into the owners home lol. If you are looking for something more adventurous than the typical sniffspot backyard, check it out.David R.

FAQ about our Central City 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.
