55Beautiful property and really nice host! Clean yard with lots of tennis balls.
Unfortunately not the best spot if you have a curious hound that can jump like mine - the bushes alone the fence line are more dense than I thought making it difficult to see/reach my dog. Lots of squirrels and dog barking outside the fence, with spots short enough to jump over.Megan K.

55I loved the spot. It's close to my home. I can't wait to go back once it gets warmer and dry. The yard is great. Lots of sniffs and she had water out and toys. I definitely return often. Lisa R.

55Great spot for a dog who just wants to fetch and roll in the grass. Mya is reactive to dogs and people. This was a quiet spot where she could just hang for a while. We will be back!Margaret O.

55This was a really lovely spot! The yard is well maintained and spacious with lots of places for dogs to play and sniff. My very nervous dog liked the spot a lot. The only difficulty was the parking - I think this won’t be an issue for most people and dogs but my dog is too fearful to walk too far from parking spots. Otherwise a really lovely space and experience! Katie O.

55Winston had a great time running around. The yard was the perfect size for some one on one fetch and the fences were high enough for my leaping boy to stay contained. There was some noise from the construction next door but we knew that going in and it caused very little distraction from our play. Water filled bowls were left out which was very appreciated. We’d love to come back!Kacey M.

55It was a hot day, but our host provided TWO bowls of water! My boy chased some balls, chewed some sticks, and rolled in the grass. It was just the low-key outing that we needed.Libby W.

55What a wonderful spot! It was very easy to find and parking wasn't a problem (parked on Ivy St as recommended). Two fresh bowls of water were left out and the yard was very tidy. My pup had a blast just exploring, running around, and playing fetch! Hannah K.

FAQ about our Chesapeake Beach 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.
