55Awesome place! The trails were shorter than I expected but it helped us remember to stay in our timeframe. One of my dogs did get involved in some mud, but nothing too bad. The trail was clear and taken care of, and Katie gives clear instructions about where to park and provides a little map of the trails! We'll definitely come back!Sarah C.

55It's still awesome & still our favorite. Bring towels if your dogs are as naughty as mine, seeking out water left in the creek. Because it's low & the foliage filled in so much, the water has turned the color of the soil. That's one tiny part of the giant property, though, so if yours doesn't know about it and stays on land above the bridge, you won't know about it. It's sooo beautiful in the fall & winter, here.Melissa M.

55Still Enzo's favorite spot! The Halloween decorations are up and super cute. Took a few photos and got a cute derpy smile! The stream is a little muddy, so bring something to clean off your dog if they love the mud like Enzo does!Leti U.

55Such a beautiful property! We enjoyed walking the trails through both the wooded and grassy areas. The map provided took a minute to figure out but was helpful for orienting where on the property we were.Gina B.

55This was such a great experience. We loved the Halloween decorations and beautiful fall scenery. If you have a reactive dog, this is the perfect spot to go. One of our pups is reactive, and it was so nice to have a stress-free walk for once. We will definitely be back again! Chrissy Y.

55We had a wonderful time! The property is very large, with lots of trails and fun changes in elevation due to a ravine/gully. There were several picnic tables to take a rest at and poop bags, which was very handy. The Halloween decorations were a fun touch for the humans as well! :)Sara T.

55On a really emotionally difficult day this sanctuary was so perfect. The trails are winding and maintained, the stream and pond are fun features. Ralph and Spice had so much fun and got so many good sniffs in, tree climbing in, playing and running. It was like a personal Minnehaha Park away from home. Mariah N.

55OMG! Much better experience than last time! We absolutely love the new parking spot ( it feel like I'm not bothering them and privacy) ! No distractions, a.k.a no off lead dogs, no humans. Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful property, we really enjoyed this place, and we felt relaxed, but most importantly, our dog felt like he was in paradise! Sasha S.

FAQ about our Chaska 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.
