55Great spot for dogs! It’s an informal campground but was completely empty. Plenty of river access although it’s rocky. There are however a few sandy spots for the dogs to get in and out of the water

55My dog had an absolute blast and me and my partner got some downtime to relax and enjoy the scenery while he ran around and kept himself busy. The field is massive so there's plenty of things to sniff and look at and I felt very safe overall. Loved that there were multiple places to sit AND a hammock. This was a lovely experience and I will definitely be coming back. Brenna C.

55This is a great spot! It was a super hot day but there’s plenty of shady space even when it 94 degrees out. My dog loved being able to run free, and really enjoyed his first experience with a creek!Elizabeth R.

55Another awesome play sesh! We’re obsessed with Field 1 and finally checked out Field 2 today. The rolling hills added a new + more challenging element to play time and my senior dogs were tired within 45min. And the view was beautiful too! I always appreciate how clean Elizabeth’s Sniffspots are as well as how much room there is for my dogs to explore. Sniffspots have allowed my senior dog Astro that can be reactive have regular play throughout the week and I can’t overstate how much it has improved our relationship, his health, and his excitement for where we are exploring next. ❤️Kadie N.

55My dogs were getting very restless after TS Helene came through and closed all of our national forests/ outdoor recreation options. This is our favorite Sniffspot anyways but I was so glad to see it was open in the aftermath of Helene. Our dogs had a blast as usual! Kelcie B.

55We love this spot so much. The views are stunning and the hills wear our babies out! They won’t fetch or chase a frisbee or anything so we need hills and terrain to really get a workout for them. Highly recommend. Kelly L.

55I love this spot! It is a pasture on a beautiful, quiet, spacious property. There are horses, goats and chickens in the pasture across the dirt road. My dog loved it, she is a Pyrenees and ran the whole time. My friend has a little tiny dog that loved it too. There is a sitting area at the top of the hill with a picnic table, a few big comfy chairs, a few toys, a bowl for water, sun screen and bug spray. I suggest bringing your own water for the bowl. There is a small spring fed creek with a wide area fenced off just big enough for your dog to drink and possibly splash around.
We are definitely going back to this spot.Beth B.

FAQ about our Cosby 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 Cosby area are 5 stars.

You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 79 fully fenced dog parks in the area.
