55This place overall was so great! So much space for the dogs to run and a bunch of trail options. I’ll definitely be using it again because my dogs had a blast! One thing to keep in mind for those with dogs that have long hair- there are a bunch of burrs right at the start of the trail. My cattle dog mixes did fine, but my friends golden retriever had to have around 30 burrs cut out of his hair after the walk. Just something to be mindful of! Everything else was great. Adrianna B.

55This is the second time we’ve visited this spot, and we can’t wait to come back. My dogs think it’s heaven on earth and the owners are so kind. Lots of space for dogs to romp and sniff and plenty of fun obstacles to tackle if you’ve got an athletic/adventurous dog like me!Emily N.

55This was a great spot! The trail to the right was a little steep for our tripawd dog so next time we’d try the flatter trail. Also do watch out for the burrs before you get to the start of the trail. Our lab jumped right in there! We will definitely be back!Dawn W.

55Quiet and peaceful spot to take a pup to sniff around! If you have a longer-haired dog, be careful in the wooded part - we did spend some time picking off burrs when we got home, but it was well worth the awesome outside space for my dog! He loved exploring up the hill in the woods. We can't wait to come back! Bridget S.

55Great amount of land and a nice path along the edge that is a bit steep. Easy to spend an hour there and it’s greyhound approved! The hosts are great and very accommodating as well. Kellie H.

55Such a nice spot! Loved that there was both a wooded area and a big open yard for our dogs to run around in. Our pups are also total dorks and loved the play set, will definitely be coming back!Madison E.

55First experience using Sniffspot and definitely not the last. Our 2 Rottweilers loved having the space and freedom to run and explore. Fencing is sufficient to keep the dogs in. Thanks for sharing your space with others. Shaun M.

55This is our first Sniffspot and we had lots of fun! As advertised, there was a big open space for lots of chasing and a forested hill with a "trail" for lots of sniffing and romping.
The instructions for entrance were clear and the fence was secure all around. I noted a previous review about burrs and brought a comb and brush; I definitely needed it.
We could hear a dog barking anytime we got near the house, but my dogs didn't mind and we couldn't hear it farther back and in the woods.
Overall, a great place for both the young dogs and the old one to run, amble, and sniff. We probably could have spent another hour easily!Laura M.

55This park was the PERFECT place to run off leash with the safety of a fence! I have a high energy dog who loves to play fetch and run, sniff and play in the woods. This property offered all of that! It was also nice to let my newly adopted dog run free for the first time. I’ve never seen him happier and he had the best time running and chasing his dog-brother without a leash ❤️Sami M.

55Lovely secluded spot surrounded by woods with dense underbrush. The large lawn area is beautifully maintained and there is a seating area. A strip of woods that’s been cleared of undergrowth is inside the fence providing shade. The directions to the location were easy to follow. Lorraine K.

55Beautiful property and tons of fun for the dogs! My little guy is a burr magnet and went tearing through the brush right away so we left a bit early to try and save his hair but would love to come back! Katie G.

55It was an incredible experience!! Such a big space - felt like we were out in the woods but were in a backyard (and was fully fenced so didn’t have to worry about the dogs running off!) Highly recommend!Keely F.

FAQ about our Holmen 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.
