55Beautiful, big safe space for your dog. It's an open, iron fence, so if your dog reacts to dogs being walked by, you might want to keep an eye out for that. We'll definitely be back. Easy to park on the street.Stephanie D.

55Allyson’s yard is absolutely beautiful! our dog has so much fun that she’s already asleep in the car and we left just minutes ago. No other visible dogs during our visit (in case that’s a concern for you), and there were some chickens a couple of doors down. We had a lovely time abd will be back soon!Julie B.

55Allyson’s yard was beautiful and we were able to park right in front of it for easy access. My dogs really loved playing around in the yard! Occasionally, people and other dogs walked by if you worry about that. However, the yard was large enough that you could get around a corner until they pass. We heard chickens and there was a small dog barking behind a fence but not in view. We will definitely book again! Thank you to the host!!! Lindsay P.

55This spot is so much fun! I love the agility equipment, even if your dog has never done it before it’s really fun to try out different jumps and obstacle courses! My dogs loved the pool and the hose. We came in the morning so half the spot was sunny and half was shady, but if you came in the middle of the day you should definitely bring a hat and human water! Either way, it’s a great way to get some sun while your dogs play. My dogs barked a few times at other dogs on either side of the fence (one side faces the street and one side faces another dog park area). It’s also very close to the train if that bothers your dog. Overall we loved it and will definitely be coming back! Meredith C.

55Instructions to access the place were easy to follow & it was exactly as pictured! A nice way to tire your dog out and get a little refuge in the city. Got home and napped for hours!!Anita M.

55when i arrived i couldn't get in due to a passcode being needed to be entered but those in charge of the place responded quickly to my message and someone was able to open the door for me. everything was super clean, i would say that if you're going when the sun is out and hot, turn on the hose to pour in the cement as it can get too hot for our dogs paws, or buy some boots! i went from 3-4 and there were only about 3 to 4 meters of shade so i recommend going much later in the evening!Joselin Z.

55I took my lab rosey and she had a blast. The lock to enter was tricky to figure out in the beginning but after a few tries I got it. The information was detailed and made it easy to follow and get inside. The playground was clean and spacious. I used the hose to wet the pavement and fill the pool for my pup. I will definitely be rebooking a trip for rosey. There is also parking right out front making it easy for entering and exiting for your pup.Natalie C.

55My dog, Levi, had so much fun, He gets very anxious with other dogs around him so this was a great opportunity for him to get his zoomies out and have fun at the pool they have available. It’s very clean and well taken care of:)Yelitza R.

55We went with a friend and our pups were able to have such a fun time and run around in a safe space! We didn’t have to worry about other dogs we didn’t know and our dogs had a BLAST. Host was very accommodating and we will be visiting again! The fence took a minute to figure out, but made me feel confident that it was a secure space. Very clean and maintained nicely! Mallory S.

FAQ about our Michigan City 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.
