55This place is awesome! We drove an hour to get here and it was absolutely worth it; my dog was very happy. It felt like a private park where we could walk a trail and he could run off leash without any worries! Ashley J.

55This place is just as magical as the reviews say! The hosts are wonderful and kind. We had a blast exploring and watching our dogs be dogs. It was a great place to work on their recall too! We'll be making regular visits part of our routine. Katelyn S.

55This place is dog heaven! My dogs had the best time! The host was amazing! I was greater upon arrival and was explained where water, trash cans, and the answer to basically any other question you could have before you even know you had it. I would recommend anybody to this place that likes a more private dog park experience. Jessie R.

55What a delight! More amenities than anyone should expect ( dog shampoo, towels), and a welcome fit for royalty. Beautiful, wide, grassy, winding paths. Our pups ran and romped until they dropped! Dilbert and Jodi wanted to be sure we had a great time, and we DID! Can’t wait to take the pups again. Judy A.

55This is the second time I’ve brought my dog to Max’s and each time he’s found something else to enjoy. I love that Augie gets the chance to be a dog and can be off leash to explore. This is a great place to take your dog if you want to practice training or just let them run out some energy/walk the trails. We’ll 100% be back in the future!! Allison T.

55Very big area, more than enough to explore. My dog didn’t even know where to start. It was a hotter day, so he spent most of his time hanging out in the many shady spots. The host mowed a nice path to denote the property and let us have free reign of the area. The area is partially fenced but even the areas that aren’t fenced have dense shrubbery, so unless your dog is a super explorer, I don’t suspect he’ll be getting away. Diana L.

55Please don’t overthink visiting this spot.
If my Goldie could write this review he would say that after he was sprayed down he ran into the field to enjoy taking in all the different smells and finding the steady stream of water. He played fetch until he lost both toy balls at one point. I can recall him each time with no problem in this large field. When I return I will bring a backpack to help carry more of his toys, a towel to dry off and light weight water bowl to take on the move. After shampooing him at home I found he carried only seeds on his fur and no unwanted critters. The host is very friendly and approachable. The necessary things were provided for our visit. I had questions before and after my visit which were all answered. I’m confident this will be your experience as well! Papa G.

55If you’re considering booking this spot do it! The owner Colin is very nice and answered all my questions in a timely manner. My dogs are socially selective with people they don’t know and dog reactive so it was SO refreshing to have a spot to call ours for a full hour to say my dogs had a blast would be an understatement we will definitely be returning!Kerrigan T.

55Today was another great visit at Colin’s field! We went straight to the back and played fetch. He loved rolling in the grass only getting up to walk to another area and roll there too. I’ve learned from my last visit how much he doesn’t want to leave so I walked him back on his leash. Colin’s field is so large my large breed dog definitely gets his much needed exercise. Colin’s place is very clean and he has created trails where you can simply walk your dog on a leash if you like. It’s truly a large clean field where he can be off leash or be walked on the leash. I’ll definitely come back and take a stroll here if I want to walk my dog other than going to a park because he gets his sniffs in and I can still walk him comfortably and privately on the leash.Papa G.

55Another great visit with my dog. Colin let us know the changes he’s made and those he plans on making in the future, including building bridges to access other parts of the property. My dog goes crazy for freshly mowed grass and he did a few zoomies along the paths that were pre-mowed for us. Diana L.

FAQ about our Lafayette 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.

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.
