55This was my second time here and it was just as great as the first! Such a beautiful property and so much fun for my pup. Securely fenced all around and so much to explore. And I loved the little treat upon leaving - such a kind touch. Thanks again for a wonderful visit!! Joane R.

55This mini forest was the perfect choice for the warm weather that we had. My girl would run up the hills and then go straight back for the stream! Be sure to have decent recall or an eye of your pup when they play near the sign that says "don't enter water" the channels are extremely deep.Jo D.

55I reserved the sniff spot for an hour and a half. My pups and I were running 20 minutes behind. Grace welcomed us up front, did a run through of the property and off we went. Although we were running behind on time, Grace graciously offered us to stay 15 minutes after our scheduled end time. I had no problem leaving at the end time of my reservation, but she insisted and left treats for my pups at the end. Property is beautiful and my dogs had a great time. I have a husky mix and a pitbull/boxer mix, two high energy dogs. They both were so exhausted, my husky ended up pawing on the entrance gate because she wanted to go home and slept the entire ride home lol. Will definitely be back again!Girlie B.

55Love this spot! Great main trail and lots of little off shoot trails that the dogs were able to explore too! Water provided at both ends of the trail was great too! Larisa A.

55This spot in INCREDIBLE!!! It took us about 30 minutes to do the trail and back, so we turned around and just walked it again! It starts off with a long green walkway with what I’m guessing is the tree farm, then it brings you to a beautiful trail through the woods. The paths are wonderfully maintained making the journey just incredible. Pups enjoyed the deer trails and exploring in the brush while I relaxed on some of the benches along the path. Owner provided water and a bucket for poop bags at the end of each side - which the dogs were also very grateful for!!! We will definitely be back…. Probably next weekend!!!! Chloe M.

55This was our first visit to the mini forest! Grace welcomed us in the driveway and explained everything so clearly. The forest is beautiful and peaceful! My two greyhounds, JJ and Tilly had a great time sniffing all around! We hiked the whole property and the fence is secure! They are greyhounds so they have little to no recall. I kept them on the leash this time because I didn’t want to “lose” them within the hour! Next time, I’ll bring my husband and then I think I’ll let them off leash. What an amazing, special place with a warm host! ❤️Amy B.

55Best Sniff Spot we’ve been to! The dogs loved the stream, was deep in some areas so little dogs should know how to swim but my pups just thought it was the Bees Knees, the humans get a good workout in too walking up the hill/trails.
Towards the end my husky wouldn’t even go up hill anymore and just hung out in the water 😂 he’s lazy but it was nice that he had options. Evelyn B.

55With the cooler weather, the pooches definitely did more exploring! Good woods, hills and sniffs. Some areas showing mud potential, so be mindful during wet season. april W.

55Really awesome private trails! Did hear some gunshots in the distance which was warned about in the description but not a big deal, my dogs weren’t bothered. So much fun and great amount of space for the dogs to roam and romp!Qwynn D.

55This sniffspot is fantastic! So much space for my dogs to run and play. A handful of trails leading between cabins and around the property makes it easy to explore with your dog! My dogs are interested mostly in sniffing everything (bloodhound and coonhound) over playing fetch or tug but the host provided some toys for us if we wanted them; very sweet. Ashley M.

FAQ About Arlington 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.
