55Yard is well kept and plenty of space to run and play. Fresh water put out was a plus. Being a reactive dog owner, places like these are a godsend for apartment dwelling pups. Was available on super short notice and gave great instructions for getting in and logistics. Highly recommend! Samantha R.

55My pup had a blast with the hose!! Host so graciously left it out for us to use, along with a bowl of fresh water. After about 20 minutes he had worn himself out so he rested a bit before more rounds chasing the hose stream. We had a blast and he’s going to sleep so well tonight! Samantha R.

55This park is awesome! My two loved it, especially the pup pools! They stayed clean on the turf. Plenty of access to water, poop bags, garbage bins, etc. Only small issue was getting into the park, even with instructions it was a bit confusing and spent 10-15 mins of our time trying to get in, but host was fast to respond and very helpful. So would just suggest if it’s your first time, come a few mins early to figure that out! We will definitely be back! Hallie S.

FAQ about our Columbus 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.
