55Amazing spot with lots to explore. The weather was not ideal especially with a weather sensitive doggo, but despite that she had a blast exploring and sniffing the deer tracks in the snow.
Martin was extremely friendly and accommodating. He provided a map of the spot and explained areas to be cautious with due to weather conditions and the impact on the trails.
Will definitely be back to explore again! Completely recommend a trip to this spot!Jaquie D.

55Really nice spot! The hives are well-marked which was great because I am afraid of bees haha. (Can't believe they were active in February!) My dog loved roaming around the trails. Lots to explore and sniff! Just a note to anyone whose dog's recall is not great, there are sections of the trails close to the road but they can be avoided entirely if you're worried. Oh and the owner has a garbage can for poop bags and a box of some toys by the parking spot which was so nice of them to leave out! Thank you! We will be back. Emma R.

55This is a lovely property with well-developed trails that are clearly marked, making it easy for the first time visitor (like me) to get around. This has been an unusually mild February, so the ground was wet and muddy in places, which is not problem if you're prepared for that.
The spot is absolutely fantastic right now. My dog enjoyed running and sniffing and just being a dog (so much so, I forgot to take pictures!) I'm looking forward to our next visit.Wendy M.

55This is an amazing property and we really enjoyed our walk today! The trails were lovely and our dog thoroughly enjoyed running around and sniffing. The paths were well maintained and were also well labeled!
Martin is a lovely host and greeted us with a smile! He reviewed the map with us and gave us some information about the current state of the trails.
As an owner of a reactive dog - it was the perfect place for our dog to run around and be free! It was a stress free walk for us, as we didn't have to worry about running into other people or off leash dogs!
We will definitely be back! Paige M.

55Great place with lots of trails. Very well organized too! All trails have names and are well labeled, you get a map upon arriving and there is a garbage at entrance (which many other parks don’t have) and the use of dog toys in a box before starting the trails. Had a great time with our two dogs, thank you! Zoe L.

FAQ about our Stratford 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 Stratford area are 5 stars.

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.
