My dog had so much fun! This was her first time going for a swim and she loved it. Very nice yard with a nice view. The neighborhood was also peaceful and parking was easy to find. My dog and I had an enjoyable experience we will be coming back again :)

Great spot! Had so much fun. The view was incredible. My pooch loved checking everything out. Unfortunately she was too afraid to go in the water but would visit again!

We had a great visit. There were some horses in the nearby fields but they didn’t pay attention to us, so were not an issuer to our reactive standard poodle. It was a great area for us to play soccer and sniff. We will definitely be back. Thank you!!

Cornered areas have foxtails! Everything is great about the field, just be aware and don’t let your pooch sneak up there.
Easy to find, the signs let you know exactly where you need to enter. Very private, just you and your pup(s) :)

Great place for dogs large and small. Plenty of room to play frisbee or chase balls. Just remember the entrance to the dog park in near the intersection of Washington and Huntington St., not the gate to the house that maps will take you to.

My two Brittany’s had a great time running and sniffing! The pasture was lush with green grass and was very well fenced. I brought my own water for the dogs and a water bowl which I took in the pasture with me. There are two chairs in the pasture to use. Horses are in their own area away from the dog area. Upon entering off the main road it’s easy to miss the palm tree with the dirt road entrance as it’s a little overgrown. . Go a bit slow. There’s a small sign that says “dog entrance”. Drive in and there’s one main gate. It’s easy to open then continue to drive in. Close that gate behind you. Then continue driving a short distance and you’ll see the fenced area for the dogs. It’s fun!

Spot was super clean. My 2 doggos had the best time, we will 100% be coming back! Only thing I noticed was the fence doors were not left closed. Just verify doors are locked before unleashing…

Nicely maintained, quiet area. Thankfully they have a sign on a tree “dog entrance” made it very easy to find. We loved this spot. Open area and 2 agility things. My dogs had a blast.

The location is beautiful. The fenced in area is a really good size for large dogs we have a cane Corso and he had the best time running and playing. As other have mentioned getting to the correct entrance is a bit confusing so be prepared prior to the visit. We are very excited to come. Again.

A little confusing how to enter. You go through the big gate with the lock on it and then walk back to the dog area... and then we think we went in the right way but there was no actual gate to open. It was a really great location though! Perfect size field for the dogs to run and play in. And lots of sights, sounds and smells for them to be exposed to safely from the field. Will definitely return!

We loved this spot! Great grassy field for the dogs to run around. You can see horses from the field but they do not have any attachments to the field fence. We will definitely be back! Thank you!

Lots of space to run around! There wasn’t any water bowls (at least we didn’t see any); luckily we had our own travel bowls. My dogs had fun barking at the horses on the other part of the property. Good stimulation for mini Aussies!!

What other types of private dog parks are available?
Dog water parks
Many hosts have added water features like pools and/or are nearby lakes or rivers.
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.
