Yard was very nice & clean. Easy street parking. It is in a neighborhood, close to neighbors with other dogs. Wasn’t a huge deal for us because we used the barking as a training opportunity. Towards the end, the neighbor dog let into their yard & the barking & fence running made it a little too much for us, so we left early. Overall great yard & I’ll definitely be back, but for severely dog reactive/aggressive dogs, this might not be the best fit.

The backyard was great, my dog had a good time sniffing around, it was nice for him to have a place to be free off leash! Would book again!

Great spot, easy to get to, with parking available in front of the house on a Sunday afternoon. The sand area was a big plus for Milo, who loves playing in it.

Very nice and quiet fenced in yard. Large patio to sit in the sun. Will definitely be coming back. My dog Blaze had a good time sniffing everything and laying in the sun on the patio pavers.

Good! But there is what sounds like a big dog that was somewhere behind the yard that was barking a lot during our visit. So if that triggers your dog I would be aware.

Love bringing our pup here. Parents of super reactive dogs, there is a pug that lives on the 2nd floor of a neighboring house but luckily our dog was oblivious.

Ross's backyard was perfect for us to run around in the yard and take a break in the shade (for me AND for the pup). I brought toys, but here were a few balls in the yard that, of course, my dog preferred! He and I both had a great time, and we will come back again.

Great yard, nice and private with a good tall fence. Easy to access and overall super nice. Our pup was intrigued by the planes more than scared but if yours doesn’t do well with loud noises it is under the flight path.

Great first experience at Ross’ spot today. Easy entry, very clean, securely fenced, plenty of space for my two pups to run. There was a few toys which was nice! Will for sure be back. My dogs loved it.

Great little spot with access to bunch of toys! Area is completely fenced, so I was able to let Archie run around. Fairly quiet neighborhood; minimal street traffic during the day.

Nice spot. It is in a busier neighborhood, so there are some people & dogs in the background.

FAQ about our Winthrop 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Winthrop 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 115 fully fenced dog parks in the area.
