55This was a great place to let the dogs run! I had never tried SniffSpot until today, and I will definitely book this one again. The field was in surprisingly good shape today (I came prepared for mud puddles etc but it was nice dry, rolling hills). The bench and water/water bowls was a nice touch. And being able to park right by the gate was convenient. Thank you!Jessica R.

55This is an awesome place to let large dogs run. I brought my two Goldens, and my daughter brought her Yorkie and miniature dachshund. All the dogs loved it. There are a few places where the mini doxie could get under the fence. She is only 7 lbs. The 13 pound Yorkie was fine, though.

55This sniffspot was perfect for our two pups! The fenced in area is HUGE. If you have a very small dog there is one area near a gate it could possibly slip under but we didn’t have to worry about that. The area was clean and they even had a spot with bowls and water. We will definitely be back! Samantha S.

55I had some trouble finding the spot but Elizabeth helped me find it and allowed me to stay a little longer. I definitely plan to go back. My dog loved running in all of that space and it was good exposure to chickens and cows. He did also try very hard to play with the neighboring beagle. He’s good with other dogs but I can see how this wouldn’t be an ideal spot for dogs with dog-aggression/reactivity or issues with livestock.Cat S.

55Beautiful GIANT fenced in field with some hills, and our dogs loved the mud puddle that was in the back corner. They even have toys, water, and a chew for the dogs. We will be back! Emily F.

55Just wow! This place was wonderful. It takes 15 to 20 minutes just to walk the fenced area and the hosts have snacks, water, and toys for doggos. We absolutely loved it. Sarah C.

55What an amazing wide open space to just run and run, which is exactly what the pups did! I was able to just walk at my own pace, the pups ran circles around everywhere and I didn't have to worry about them. The host provides a sitting spot and there was water, toys and treats! We took advantage of the space to play with our chuck-it ball and Frisbee. Will definitely be back Lisa M.

55This is such a great Spot!
First, it's HUGE, and our dogs literally ran themselves tired. Our pittie, who normally has boundless energy, eventually went and stood placidly at the gate to leave because she was DONE (in a good way!).
Secondly, the fence was secure do we had no worries of our dogs getting out.
Third, the area was beautiful, rolling, grassy hills.
Fourth, note that some neighbors gave a small dog on their side of the fence, our dogs had a blast racing up and down the fence line with this dog (beagle, I think?). It was all good fun but be aware of it if you go and your fogs get triggered. We went to this Spot multiple times and the friendly little beagle was there each time.
The hosts also provided nice amenities like a bench, dog toys, dog water and bowls, bottled water for humans, etc.
Great Spot, highly recommended!
Note: there is a pond within the Spot but it's fenced so dogs can't get into it. Scott T.

55Loved this spot! Some nice rolling hills to trek across, we saw some cows and horses (2 fences between them and the dogs), my dogs were curious and watched them. The cooler box at the gate is full of fun surprises, including towels if your dog gets wet in the grass and a treat to take for the ride home. And I appreciated the trash can for clean up. There is an as advertised beagle very close to the fence that my dogs did want to run the fence with but once I got them away the beagle was quiet and my dogs moved on and enjoyed the rest of the property. Will come again!Lindsay K.

55This spot was our dogs dream spot. They ran and ran and ran. We barely had throw a ball as our girls romped around the field. We really appreciated the water and bowl for our girls and they loved the treat for the ride home! We will be back!Vicki S.

55Absolutely what it looks like and is described as - a giant field with so many sniffing and running opportunities! There were plenty of additional enrichment elements like a nearby rooster and a field of cows for my dog to marvel at (not close enough to touch or chase, though — they’re on the other side of the fence!) He had the time of his life running as far as he wanted! There were additional sweet touches like an entire bin full of balls, water bowls, water, and even a towel! There’s a bench for humans to sit on if your dog is fine playing independently. Wonderful space!Jessica B.

FAQ about our Marthasville 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. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Marthasville 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 86 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 7 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.
