55I should have realized it would be muddy after all of the recent rain! My girls had a blast running and exploring. Will definitely come back once things dry out a bit more. They’ve been snoozing since we returned home which is always the goal!
Side note: Apple Maps led me PASSED the actual gate but Google Maps was spot on Adriana L.

55The dogs (and humans 😊) absolutely loved this Sniffspot! Seemed expansive with a perfect mix of trees and open areas. So fun! The water bowl and small dog pool were extra nice touches the dogs enjoyed. Secure and perfect location…so peaceful and convenient. Highly recommend!Sheryl G.

55This is a favorite place for us to visit. I have a Malinois, and he is able to run hard and fast, something he loves to do. We work obedience and have a lot of fun. We lucked out and had some water after recent rains, and my dog spent half his time submerged up to his neck. We love this place and can't wait to return.Sherolyn C.

55We had so much fun!!! We were celebrating our dog Beignet's first birthday. He had never been in a pool before, so we are grateful that he could swim around! At some point, my husband lost his wedding ring, and the host allowed us to go back later and look (it was in the pool; I had to dive down and get it. 0 stars to him!). The yard and pool were very clean, and there was lots of seating, so great for groups. The fans made it so that bugs weren't an issue, even though we went at 7:30 in the evening in May. We had an excellent time and will definitely be back to let Beignet practice his doggy paddling!!!Sarah B.

55My pups had the greatest time. GSD’s need so much room to run around and an average yard in SA does not cut it and 2 45 minute walks daily is not quite enough. Environment was great! Loved the pet repellent that was provided and the pup pool was great! My son also enjoyed using the hand push mower!! Definitely returning for sure! Fran G.

55We had a wonderful time spending 2 hours at this beautiful backyard with our 2 dogs! There’s so much space to explore, definitely more than we were able to cover in our visit. While we didn’t let our dogs roam everywhere due to some areas having taller grass, which made us a little cautious, everything we did see felt safe and well-kept, and we didn’t notice any snakes or concerning critters. Stephanie so kindly has mosquito spray for the pups, and I highly suggest humans brining their own bug spray as well (Texas summers bring all the itchy bugs).
The property was quiet and peaceful during our visit, aside from the resident dogs inside the house. Our dogs can be a bit reactive, so they did bark back and forth a bit, but once we got their focus onto the toys we brought, they had an absolute blast! There’s a foldable pool that was thoughtfully filled with water before we arrived, and an in-ground pool that our dogs could also enjoy which was such a treat in this heat. The large water bowl and easy hose access were also super helpful for keeping the dogs hydrated and getting their paws cleaned off before heading home.
Access to the property was smooth, and the fully fenced yard gave us peace of mind while our dogs played freely. We live in a house but don’t have this kind of open land, so seeing our dogs stretch their legs and run around was exactly what we were hoping for.
Overall, we really enjoyed our visit and would definitely love to come back again! Thank you, Stephanie, for sharing your space and making it such a dog-friendly retreat. Lexy E.

55Beautiful open space with lots of trees and plants. The grass was a little tall on our visit, but I still felt more than comfortable letting my larger dog roam. Host provided chairs, a picnic table, a small doggie pool and water dish, AND some dog safe mosquito spray!!! I thought that was a nice touch, however the mosquito traps set up seemed to keep them to a minimum so that was great! Over all my dog was mentally and physically exhausted by the time we left!

FAQ About San Antonio 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. 16% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the San Antonio area are 5 stars.

You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 205 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 275 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.
