55I drove an hour to get to this location and it was WORTH IT! So many new smells my pup LOVED it! SAFE quiet and big w a small slope for Tito to run and exercise! Absolutely breathtaking view of the pasture and the horses kept a safe distance allowing Tito to get a whiff of what they were but not too close to intimidate him! Perfect afternoon! Would recommend for small and big dogs! Water was available and places for humans to sit and enjoy the fresh air!Elizabeth S.

55AWESOME Sniffspot! My dog had the time of her life running around and sniffing everything. Yard is very secure with plenty of space. Quiet and serene as well. There are horses which are nice to watch and my dog was very curious about them but they were far enough away that she wasn't scared of them. Only downside is that my dog found lots of things to roll in and we had to give her a bath afterward. But we had fun, and my dog had fun, and overall an A++ experience. Kate S.

55What a lovely first Sniffspot experience! The host was so gracious and inviting, and my dogs loved the area. They ran and ran until they were tuckered out, then sat and watched the horses and enjoyed the scenery. Lots to sniff and areas to explore. We will be back!Heidi T.

55Large, open, and very few spots where dogs are out of view. Fence not easily escaped (the Basenji is an escape artist so secure enough to give me time to redirect)Marianne P.

55Dogs had a blast! Area was fully fenced and all grass lawn was very well maintained. Home Owners set out and provided lots of toys for pups, chairs for owners and water bowl with access to water. This place was perfect for our 2 large dogs to run and tire themselves out. We even extended for an extra hour as dogs were having lots of fun. We will return to this spot again. Cecily A.

55The space is great. I didn't expect water and toys to be made available. Much appreciated Tyler securing his dog. My dogs don't do well with super high energy dogs. I am always looking for secure, safe locations for my dogs to let go and enjoy themselves. I highly recommend Sam's Farm. Laurie C.

55Clean yard, secure fence, awesome host. Lawn was cut short. There are shade spots and a bowl of fresh water was left out. Address a little hard to spot coming from 604, Mailbox is across street from driveway though there are numbers on fence entrance to drive. Gwen P.

55The land was well maintained. The grass was cut very nicely. The whole 2-3 acres was fenced in with no gaps or holes. There were a few shady spots for us to wait in while our dog explored. I’m very satisfied, as is my dog! Money well spent 😊Savanna H.

55Sam’s Farm is a chunk of paradise. The dogs had a great time running, playing ball, and just sniffing the grass. The atmosphere is wonderful—clean fresh country air, and peacefully quiet. Many thanks to our host for providing fresh water for the dogs, a canopy providing shade, chairs, and a tasty sample of freshly grilled ribs.Susan H.

55Our dogs had a wonderful time at Sam's Farm, and so did we. They loved running off leash in such a large, safe area and exploring. It was an easy drive and we would recommend it to anyone!Daren S.

55The property is located in a rural part of Prince William County that is secluded with green, rolling hills. The home sits behind fields of soybeans and the fenced-in area is attached to a barn and home. There is a smaller fenced area for the homeowner that is a tall, sturdy, wooden fence.
We met Sam and he was friendly and accommodating. He provided fresh water for our dogs. Our dogs enjoyed running around in the large area. They then played with Sam's black dog after we told Sam it would be a good thing since our dogs are friendly. His dog was kept inside until we talked to Sam and he brought him out and the dog was very friendly and enjoyed running with our two young dogs. We enjoyed our stay and will be back for sure! Thank you!Catyana F.

55We live in DC, it took us about 45 minutes to get to Sam’s spot and it was worth every second of the drive. The entire area was well fenced in, it was secluded and pushed back and away from other homes, and it had both sunny and shaded areas. We were able to sit and relax and throw the ball as far as we could with our dogs and they had the best time ever. Will 100% be back here soon !! Alley M.

55It was such a great spot! My girl loved it. Such a beautiful fenced in yard. The lower deck is shaded which was nice to take a quick break from running around. My girl isn’t a pool girl, so it was nice that they had the option of a sprinkler. We will definitely be back!Cassandra H.

55What a lovely spot! A very cool (and large!) private area for play, and thoughtful spread of chairs/toys/water bowls/doggy bags for guests. This is exactly what my pup and I were looking for and we will certainly visit again ~ Samantha B.

55Xena had a great time being able to safely run off leash. The yard is far from sidewalks so there were no close encounters with people or other dogs. We went midday and there was plenty of shade on a sunny day and a water bowl with access to a hose to refill. Excellent communication from the host who also provided human snacks and other outdoor essentials. We’re excited to visit again in the future!Jacey J.

55Even though it was raining, Callie still had a great time in this yard! The host, Vyvy, was responsive and understanding about the need for a no contact visit with Callie's reactivity. There were lots of goodies for the humans to enjoy while Callie sniffed and did lots of zoomies around the yard.Sarah J.

FAQ about our Broad Run 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 Broad Run area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 276 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 44 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. 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.
