55this place is awesome. my pup loves to swim and had the best time. when turning into the driveway it comes up on you pretty fast, we missed the turn the first time, so just keep an eye out. the backyard is beautiful and well kept. we didn't go to the trail this time because the pool was all out dog wanted to do! honestly i would recommend getting longer than 1 hour, just due to the amount of things for the dogs! we wished we did an hour and a half, but there is always next time!

55I can say this is one of the BEST $20 I have ever spent. This hour will go down in our family’s memories as the cherished first time we got to take our dog to the pool. Thank you for making this wonderful opportunity available to so many pup families! We will definitely be back. Quincy F.

55Melissa's Sniffspot is perfect! Especially on a hot summer day. Our dogs had so much fun swimming in the creek and the pool. Nice size fenced in area for the dogs to run and sniff. Melissa is a great host. We already booked a return visit.Casey W.

55My pup is taking a class to learn dock diving, and I am hoping that additional pool-time will allow him work up the courage to jump in. Although he still isn’t quite ‘there’ yet, it’s clear that he loves pool time. Melissa’s Sniffspot truly is a peaceful paradise! We will definitely be back - not just for pool time but also to explore the woods and creek. Natalie B.

55Oakley and I had a great time. Everything was perfect. The pool and area were so clean and nice. You can tell by all the little extra details that the owner truly loves dogs. We didn’t venture out to the trails, but hope to do that another time.
Oakley and I are looking forward to our next visit. Jill W.

55If I could give this 10 stars I absolutely would! This turned into the highlight of our weekend.
It was quiet, no people or dogs visible or heard, which really helped my pup feel safe entering a new environment.
The ramp was also super helpful! My pup has only been to the pool 3 times so she’s not terribly familiar with it but got back into her groove in no time!
The trails in the back were also great, me and my dog chased each other around!
Really well thought out, as others have said. A lot of care and attention went into this sniff spot- we will definitely be back!
Big thanks to the hosts for sharing your lovely yard!Anna M.

55Our fur kids absolutely adored this Sniff Spot! From the exciting sniffari to the refreshing swimming and playtime by the creek, they had the time of their lives. Everything about this spot was just perfect - easy to find, excellent communication, and a spacious yard for our fur babies to run around in. We highly recommend this Sniff Spot to all fur babies out there! Thank you for sharing your wonderful space with us - we will definitely be back for more tail-wagging adventures!Hillary M.

55Excellent river adventure! The pool is great- toys, digging pit, goodies all for our pup! Our dog has apparently never been in a pool 😁. There is a ramp for easy in/out of pool. My 6 yo son and our pup had the best time walking and running through the creek together! Will be back for longer than an hour!!Tara D.

55A++ Sniffspot! The host thought of every little detail from a dig pit to dog-safe flowers to multiple fresh water bowls. Easy to find, clearly marked, clean, and very secure fencing. We can’t wait to visit again!Lara S.

55Amazing!!! Everything is so thought out. We spent most of the time helping the pups get more comfortable with the water. But from the ramp, to the sensory garden (all safe plants for dogs), the digging area - everything is well thought out and maintained. We will definitely be back! It’s also nice because there isn’t a lot of noise from neighbors/the road since it sits so far back which was nice to not have distractionsRebecca F.

FAQ about our Buford 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. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Buford 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 475 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 63 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.
