55Our pups had a great time! This place was massive, so my working dogs had lots of room to not only swim, but to play fetch in the backyard. The pool is concrete on the inside as well, so I recommend clipping your dogs’ nails before coming or else they’d break them like my pups did. There is a shady area for humans to hang out too, with a fan that kept the area cool. All in all, the BEST Sniffspot in the area! Alexandria K.

55Great place to take you furkids! Beautiful, clean location with lots of room to run and play. Our avid swimmer Labrador ABSOLUTELY LOVED the pool and hardly got out. Our Shepherd enjoyed the large space to run and dipped her toes in the water on the large landing step going into the pool. We will absolutely be back. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful space with others!Chrissy K.

55We had a blast. The pool has a shallow area so nervous dogs can enter at their own pace. The yard area is lovely. We brought four dogs and they had the best time!Cristina W.

55Absolutely love that John and Betsy allow the pups to use their pool! The yard has PLENTY of space to run, it’s very well kept, there is a gazebo with seating for shade, and I love that they provide toys and treats for those dog moms who were in a rush and forgot my own! There is plenty of cold water and disposable dog bowls for the fur babies as well! Truly above and beyond!!! Karen B.

55Only one of our four goldens got in the pool, but she LOVED IT. The others enjoyed running around the yard and smelling all the smells.
The host was very prepared - dog snacks, water and disposable bowls, poo bags, toys, etc.
I always take water, bowls, and poop bags with me, I brought I few of our toys as well, but I didn’t have to use anything.
Great location - you don’t have to go into the city at all.
We heard a few dogs barking but the yard is very private.Eryn K.

FAQ about our York dog water parks
Are dog water parks safe?

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 are 5 stars. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines. Some great ways to stay safe around water with your dog include learning canine CPR and keep an eye on your dog at all times to ensure they are not distressed.

How do I know if a dog water park works for my dog?

If your dog is not a strong swimmer, then perhaps choose a dog water park with tamer water features rather than a river or beach, for instance. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
