55The first thing my dog did was run the whole property happily sniffing along the way. There's a cute outside shower area that I wouldn't have seen if it wasn't for my dog's curiosity.
Swimming was a lot of fun. I may have the only dog who doesn't know how to swim. After I showed her how to get out of the pool, we enjoyed the swimming pool and she did very well learning how to swim.
Pool was clean. I am 5'3" and there is only a small shallow end so I advise that u should be a good swimmer to enjoy the entire pool.
The backyard has a lot of seating. One area had sitting hammocks. Another had a climbing rope. There it's still enough space for you to romp around with your dog. Diane M.

55We had a blast! My two year old border collie mix and her doggy friend ran, played, and swam. It was a little confusing to find (couldn’t find the house number from the road), but the GPS really did work exactly right. The area is beautiful, peaceful, with lots of sitting areas for the humans. Looking forward to another visit!Yuri Y.

55Great space for my dog to run around- PLENTY of room! He did accidentally jump into the pool but they had a hose to wash him off.
There were a lot of mosquitoes so that is the only item I recommend future guests bring. Nicole G.

FAQ about our Valrico 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.
