Lumpy's Playground

Fully Fenced
1 acre

1 Acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Park in Champaign - make sure to type the address in exactly Important information: 1. The gate has a small gap from the bottom, so a smaller dog could get out. Working on fixing the issue. There is a long, folding fence you can use to cover the gap if needed. 2. There is a long hose closer to the house that can be used to fill the baby pool and water bowls. It's long enough to drag over and use as needed! Just pull all the way up on the pipe handle to start the flow of water. 3. Dog treats replaced daily as needed - help yourself! 4. There is a bin of toys to use as desired. Please put them back once finished. 5. Blue tooth speaker and hand sanitizer on table to use as desired. 6. Poop bags hanging near gate. Please pick up after your pup and throw in the provided bin! 7. You can park in the grass right inside the coded gate closet to the pasture. The gate to the Sniffspot is red and will be open for you to be able to spot it easier!

Alice's Acre: Your Secluded Spot for Off-Leash Running & Playing in Downtown Antioch

Fully Fenced
1 acre

Welcome! Tucked away in downtown Antioch is a hidden one-acre private dog park where dogs can run, sniff, zoom, dig, splash, and play to their heart's content. Reservation only - just you and your dog. 🐾 For the Dogs: I have a feeling you're going to love this backyard. It's a full acre of fenced-in freedom, hidden behind the houses like a secret playground. There's plenty of open space for epic zoomies, mature trees that are almost certainly hiding squirrels, and even a special corner where digging is enthusiastically encouraged. If you visit after a good rain, you might discover a muddy little spot that's perfect for rolling around and getting dirty (you're welcome.) No rain? No problem. Cool off in the doggy splash pad instead. Of course, you'll also find plenty of other toys waiting for you, like tennis balls, frisbees, and those squeaky toys you love to throw into the air (you know the ones). For the Humans: While your pup burns off some energy, you can enjoy a surprisingly peaceful and serene backyard, especially considering it's only a half block off Main Street in downtown Antioch. In the middle of the yard you'll find our old chicken house. It retired from raising chickens years ago and really just sits there looking cute. But it does have a little patio with chairs, a basket of dog toys, and a water spigot with fresh water for thirsty pups. 🌳 The Property: Our property is located just north of Sequoit Creek Park and the Antioch Public Library, only a half block off Main Street. The backyard is fully fenced and has convenient, direct access from the driveway. Guests have two dedicated parking spaces in the large circular driveway, set well away from the house. The yard is usually quiet and peaceful. Occasionally, the neighbors' two friendly dogs may be outside. They sometimes bark to say hello, but they stay securely on their own property. ❤️ Thanks for Visiting! I'm new to Sniffspot and excited to share this special space with other dog lovers. If there's anything you'd like to see added or improved, I'd genuinely love to hear your suggestions.

Fully Fenced Yard For Dogs To Rent In Lombard

Fully Fenced
0.17 acres

**Sorry! Pool is away for the season** We live on a corner lot. There is a high, spaced fence along the public sidewalk. There is a kiddie pool (during summer), a rain garden (not really for the dogs, but in case you're worried about water it can temporarily fill up during and after heavy rainfall), and some agility equipment (four jumps and six weave poles) upon request. Easiest access to the yard is to park on E Taylor and enter through the north gate. Please open the gate with the inside latch (about chest height); please do not open the gate with the in-ground bolt. There is a tall, silver trash can on the patio for any human trash. There is a short, silver trash can near the north gate entrance for Dog Bags. Please enjoy a patio chair, dog toys, sunscreen, bug spray, and hammock (weather permitting). Backyard is East Facing so gets lots of morning sun. There is a sun shade over part of the patio but the patio area is 100% shaded by 3:30-4p, the yard is ~50% shaded by 6p, ~100% shaded by 7p.

Unfenced 5 acres available to roam with your dog. The front yard is large and spacious it runs up to a white building with a dog mural on the back of it. My road is in front of this building.

2026 ADDED AMENINITY! (See in description )Denise's 1 Acre Fenced Private Dog Park In Swansea

Fully Fenced
0.5 acres

Welcome! Our property’s back yard has a large lake, which acts as part of the “fencing”. Otherwise, it is fully fenced. So if your furbaby is a swimmer, they will LOVE it here! There is a ramp leading directly into the water near our dock. However if your fur baby loves to swim TOO much, and decides to exit the lake on the opposite side of our property or in a neighbor’s yard, then you may have to hop in your car and retrieve them around the block, but If they have good recall, awesome! Bring a picnic blanket and relax under a tree!! Lots of shade, several seating areas, and wildlife (ducks, geese, squirrels, raccoons) Do not let your dog harm any of the wildlife. If your dog is a “prey” dog and you fear it will chase and catch a duck, goose, raccoon, then this may not be the place for you. “Leave It” is one of the best learned commands a pooch can have! 😁Please note, the lower half our our property is gated, but you are welcome to roam back there with dog on leash, it is all fenced as well but just still be very mindful it is just a wired fence. Also the lower half of yard is hilly with some stumps/stones here and there, so use caution…roam at your own risk. 😊 During the winter, if the lake is freezing over or frozen, we will NOT allow bookings. However if you do book during a winter month, when the lake is questionable, you resume 100% responsibility for your pup and yourself. THE 2026 ADDED AMENINITY: Fishing is allowed! Have some fun too while your pup is having a good time! BRING YOUR OWN POLE AND BAIT. We throw our fish back, but if you catch a nice size catfish, you are welcome to keep. ONE PER VISIT THOUGH. Please be responsible with any hooks or bait. Please do not leave hooks or bait on property and avoid hooks getting left in trees and the lake. Water bowl, toys and poop bags available for your use while here. Please do clean up after your pooch/pooches. ENJOY!🐶😊💕

Frequently asked questions about Illinois dog parks

What amenities do private dog parks in Illinois offer that public parks don't?

Illinois private dog parks offer amenities you'll never find at public facilities: swimming pools for water-loving dogs, agility equipment for training, climate-controlled indoor spaces for year-round use, hiking trails on private property, and secure fencing customized for different dog sizes. Hosts provide poop bags, water stations, toys, and even dog wash stations. Rock Creek Dog Park is especially known for exceptional amenities. Every Illinois listing shows exactly what's included—no surprises.

Are there fully fenced private dog parks in Illinois?

Yes! Most of Illinois's 1616 Sniffspot locations are fully fenced. Use the "fully fenced" filter to find secure enclosures with detailed fencing specs: height (4ft, 6ft, 8ft+), material (wood, chain-link, vinyl), and gap information. This is crucial for escape artists, puppies learning boundaries, or reactive dogs who need contained space. Illinois listings show fencing photos so you can verify security before booking.

How clean are private dog parks in Illinois compared to public ones?

Significantly cleaner. Public dog parks in Illinois are maintained by overworked city staff and often littered with waste from dozens of dogs daily. Sniffspot hosts in Illinois maintain their own spaces and take pride in cleanliness since it directly affects their reviews and bookings. Many Illinois hosts provide fresh poop bags, empty trash regularly, and sanitize water stations. Plus, with only one booking at a time, waste accumulation is minimal. Check reviews to see cleanliness ratings.

What types of dog parks can I find in Illinois?

Illinois has 1616 diverse options: dog water parks for specific training activities, small dog parks for different environments, and fully fenced dog parks for varied experiences. Want a backyard for simple off-leash time? We've got it. Need acres of trails for hiking? Check. Looking for water access or agility obstacles? Available. Browse by park type to see what matches your dog's interests, then filter by location within Illinois to find convenient options.

Can I book Illinois dog parks on short notice?

Usually yes! Many Illinois Sniffspot locations offer same-day or next-day availability, and most bookings can be made instantly without waiting for host approval. Unlike public dog parks that might be crowded during peak times, Illinois private parks let you reserve exactly when you need them—early morning before work, midday breaks, or evening exercise. Check individual listings for real-time availability and booking policies.

Do Illinois dog parks have water access?

Many do! Filter Illinois's 1616 locations by amenities to find dog parks with swimming pools, natural ponds, creeks, or beach access. Water features are perfect for Illinois's hot summer days or for dogs who love to swim. Each listing specifies water type and depth, plus whether it's safe for swimming or just wading. Some Illinois hosts provide life vests or shallow kiddie pools for water-nervous dogs.

Are there indoor dog parks in Illinois?

Yes! Illinois has climate-controlled indoor options perfect for extreme weather, rainy days, or year-round exercise. Indoor Illinois locations typically feature rubberized flooring (easier on joints), artificial turf, or padded surfaces. They're especially popular for puppy training, senior dogs needing gentle surfaces, or reactive dogs benefiting from enclosed environments. Filter by "indoor" to see Illinois's covered and climate-controlled options.

What's the best time to visit dog parks in Illinois?

With Sniffspot, any time works since bookings are private! Unlike public dog parks that are crowded during peak hours (early mornings, evenings, weekends), you don't have to worry about timing in Illinois. Book whenever fits your schedule—midday when public parks are empty, dawn for cool weather, or late evening for convenience. Many Illinois locations have lighting for after-dark visits. The flexibility is one of the biggest advantages over public parks.
