55My dog and I had a great time here! The backyard is very open and spacious. It was big enough for my working-line German Shepherd to sprint at full speed during fetch! She usually needs the size of a soccer field to unleash her energy. The backyard was also very relaxing surrounded by nature. We played hide and seek. I would hide her favorite toy and it would take a couple of minutes for my dog to sniff it out because the yard was so big. Highly recommend! Sarah O.

55Beautiful, well taken care of space! The trees provided great shade, and will be very helpful as temperatures warm up. Our senior girl sniffed around the yard for a while, and then picked a couple different shady spots to air-scent from. It was nice to hear the birds in the trees and the crickets chirping. A year ago, we would have played fetch too, as the yard is a great size for that. We saw no dogs on a weekday morning, but if I had seen the neighbor dog out, I would have just kept our dog on her long line and away from that fence.Bianca T.

55After three weekday morning visits, we have only seen one person: a runner on the street in front of the house. But your dog may not even notice the street once you are playing with them in the main part of the yard. We have seen no dogs. If your dog is reactive, Anna's notes above will help you decide what time is best for your dog.Bianca T.

55We had a great time in Mary’s yard! The agility equipment was the highlight. It was fun getting my dog to do the jumps! She was too scared to go in the pool due to the depth (she’s not used to swimming yet) but I’m sure other dogs love it! Jaclin S.

55Great space for the dog to sniff around and use his brain doing the agility obstacles. I only wish the pool would have had a ramp or stairs or something for a gradual entrance. Emily G.

55Plenty of things for the dogs to smell and things to do like run around the obstacles! Host was super thoughtful and left out towels for us since we went on a rainy day! As others have mentioned, make sure you latch the door well. Sharon L.

55Great spot! Our dog is a runner and fetch champion and we were able to tire her out in no time.
We were there early in the morning, but everything was shaded and it was nice and quiet. This is going to be a top choice as summer heat picks up.
This is a wooded area so depending on time of day mosquito spray could be good if you are sensitive.
Easy to park and enter the spot using the gate on the side of the house.
We will be back!Shyra G.

55We had such an incredible experience at Christopher’s fenced in large private yard! I was genuinely blown away by how much fun our visit was! There was plenty of open space for my two high energy pups to run free to their heart’s content. We felt very safe and at peace here, with only the next door neighbors small dog barking frequently. There were tons of interesting and varying areas for my dogs to excitedly smell and explore as well. We immediately felt at home, due to the charming tranquil set up for our visit when we arrived. Our host also stocked the patio area with plenty of awesome toys that your fur babies will have a blast playing with! My pups were absolutely ecstatic for such an amazing opportunity to have a fantastic adventure together, and were beyond happily exhausted when we left. We are so grateful that you hosted us today Christopher, thank you again :)Cassandra R.

55This is a great and very cute spot. My pups love to run in the yard and are tired out at the end of the visit. Fence is safe and secure and there’s water available. There are dogs in the neighbor’s yard but my pups are not reactive to that, so it’s no problem for me. Will be back again!Brittany S.

FAQ about our Lincoln 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Lincoln 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 84 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 16 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.
