55This place was wonderful! We've been looking for a place with a pool, because Maebh loves to swim but has never seen a pool - until today! It took her a few minutes to warm up to the idea, but then she didn't want to leave. The hosts were very kind and left us toys, an emergency kit, and fresh drinking water. Directions were excellent! We just hope we didn't disturb anyone, because someone would get excited and play bark every so often. We will definitely be back. Jess M.

55This was an amazing property for my dog. The owners had everything that we needed available. The wide steps in the poop were perfect for my dog to lay in the water but not have to swim. I will be using this sniffspot again!Alyssa R.

55This was such a great spot for a dog play date, there were a lot of places to explore and nice big open space as well for running around. The pool was covered this time of year but it will be fun to come back when it's warmer out! Steph C.

55This is a wonderful spot to let your dog run free! My dog Scooby had such a blast there running around and sniffing everything! I felt safe with him there running around and appreciate the opportunity to have him there. He took a lot of time to just run and sniff around and then liked the Chuck it ball toy. They also put treats and toys and water out on a table in the back part of the yard. Wonderful spot and we will definitely be back! Destiny A.

55Very nice place. They have it separated into different yards so it’s not the full advertised acreage but the fence is tall and strong enough for my sighthounds and lots of land to be explored and run around in. Janet P.

55Stunning property. Well maintained and a great place for my dogs to get exercise and a lot of sniffs. I walked laps while my dogs followed my around. One lap around was about .45 miles so it was really nice that I was able to get some excercise in while my dogs did too! Kathy was helpful and showed me down the path to where the entrance is. This was a peaceful hour for me as well, just taking in the scenery and fresh air. I will definitely be back!Carolyn W.

55This was our first Sniffspot visit, and it was fantastic. Our corgi Emmy LOVED the lure coursing that Kathy ran for us, as well as nosing around in the creek. The whole area exceeded our expectations and was beautiful. Great amenities, well cared for, overall outstanding. We are trying to figure out when we can head back.Rebecca C.

FAQ about our East York 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 East York 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 171 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 27 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.
