Raphael's Wild Fully Fenced Yard For Dogs To Rent In Durham With Shade, Water, Chairs, Birdfeeders, wild Squirels and rabbits, Fig/cherry trees and Koi/Mosquito Fish/Dragonfly pond | Sniffspot
55Beautiful, untamed woods along Morgan Creek. There are a couple of trails, but my pup and I enjoyed wandering through the woods exploring. The spots along the creek are lovely, and my water-loving girl enjoyed a swim. It is just off a road, so I don’t recommend if your dog’s recall isn’t great. There is a fenced in part with toys though.Kendra F.

55This is a great sniff spot if your dogs like to play in the creek! The land is being cleared so as of right now, you get to make your own path which was a lot of fun for my dogs, but be aware of mud if it's been raining.
This spot is more like an off-leash walk in the woods because it's unfenced, so if you're looking for a place to practice training their recall, this would be a good private spot. Greg the host is super friendly and helpful. Kelly G.

55Gregory is very accommodating with a fenced in and off leash areas. Bender and Henry had a great time! We were too busy having fun running in and out of the creek and chasing sticks to take pictures! Gregory has a hose to rinse paws before you get back in the car. Bring towels for the car, boots for yourself and have lots of fun!
We will be back! Picture is what Bender looks like after we get home which was the goal- High energy dog had a good time.Frances G.

55My Aussies had a blast playing in the stream and chasing the each other through the woods. Absolutely beautiful space. Gregory had fresh drinking water out, toys to play with, and let us use the hose to clean the mud off before we left. Wonderful spot!! Leah J.

55We had such a great time! Our two german shepherds had a blast running off leash, swimming in the creek, and exploring new smells! Would recommend to anyone trying to give their high energy dogs a fun time. Would bring water shoes next time to be able to cross the creek! Thanks again. We will be back!Anna C.

55Super friendly host !! Gregory was more than inviting upon arrival and gave me a walkie talkie to have during my time there in case I needed to reach him. My dogs had an amazing time and had plenty of space to get all their zoomies out. Will definitely be returning to this location! Indra S.

55This was by far the BEST Sniffspot Iv been to so far, as long as your dogs recall well (it’s un fenced). There’s a creek, there’s woods, there’s a field, there’s peace and quiet, what more could you want?! Greg was a great host, made sure I new the layout of the land then sent me on my way! He even gave me a walkie talkie to get in touch with him if I needed to! I will definitely be back! It was just what I needed to get out and relax with my dogs! Mariesa M.

55LOVE this sniffspot. Been to a few but this one is definitely a favorite. Plenty of space to run free and hop over logs, splash around in the creek, what more can a dog ask for? Will definitely come back to this one. Gregory was such an amazing host, explains well the layout of the property. Even has a hose and towel you can use to clean your pup if they get dirty from mud.Christina C.

55Gregory was a wonderful, attentive host! Definitely an off-leash spot only for dogs with good recall—there are a few places where it is ~100 yards or less from a somewhat fast road. Don’t think that makes it noisy, though—this is a serene, quiet, beautiful spot. My dog loved splashing in the creek and chasing his ball through the woods. Will absolutely be back, and soon! Nina M.

We had an absolute blast! The host was AMAZING. We have a reactive pup so going to parks or public places are very nerve wracking, but this allowed him the freedom to truly enjoy himself! We will be back!!!Kayleigh W.

FAQ about our Chapel Hill 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.
