55Such a cool spot! There was so much to do and I love that the pups could run around and swim all they wanted; my girls didn’t want to leave! The place was clean and well taken care of. Briefly met the hosts and they were very nice. This was our first Sniffspot visit and definitely won’t be our last! It was a bit of a drive from our house, but totally worth it - will definitely be back!! Megan R.

55This was our third time back and my dogs think it’s puppy pawadise! I can relax knowing there’s no distractions and there is always water and treats for the pups and water and snacks for the humans. My dogs may disagree but my favorite thing has been the dog wash station, life saver for my vehicle since my dogs love running through the mud. We will definitely be a regular visitor! Emily K.

55We had an amazing time! There are multiple trails to explore with 2 ponds, an agility and a river. Our pups had a blast. They thought of everything, including snacks for dogs AND people, and a bathing area which definetly came in handy after our retriever decided to cool off in the water. We will be returning!Cara W.

55This was our second trip to this sniff spot. Our dogs finally got the hang of swimming and enjoying their off leash time! We were able to explore the whole property this time, and our Great Pyrenees made sure to swim in every available body of water she could lol. They had so much fun, and were completely exhausted by the time we left. We will definitely make this part of our regular routine! Jayme K.

FAQ about our Elizabeth 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.
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 Elizabeth City 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 124 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 10 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.
