55Had an absolute blast! This was our second booking here and my three dogs love the obstacle courses and all the sniffs. The host had a cute sign welcoming us and even had bug spray on hand (along with other care items if your dog got dirty) for people who came unprepared (me!). We will definitely be back.Maddie C.

55This hidden gem exceeded all my expectations! My dogs and I had an amazing time during our stay, with plenty of space to run, play, and explore. The area was well-equipped with toys, water, a trash bin, and ample seating in both sun and shade. It was the perfect day for fun, and as a first-time user of this app, I couldn't have asked for a better host than Megan. She was quick to respond, incredibly friendly, and made me feel completely at ease. The dogs had such a great time that they tired out quickly, and I ended our visit a bit early since they hadn’t had the chance to run like that in a while. I appreciate having a private space to enjoy without the stress of dog parks, and I’m so grateful to Megan for opening her home to us. We can’t wait to return! 🫶🏼Melissa E.

55This was my first sniffspot visit, and it was awesome. The area was perfect with an open running area as well as some shaded space. The picnic table was a great sit-down space, and Kevin made the visit even better with a little advice that worked wonders. We will definitely be visiting again.Maxine J.

The Burton Family Farm Private Dog Park In Fredericksburg | Sniffspot
55What a special and peaceful property! My husband and I took our three dogs and walked the perimeter of the property and around the pond on a beautiful Spring day before sunset. We set up our camp chairs on the back side of the pond with the forest behind us and enjoyed the birds chirping and the pond view with a glass of wine while the dogs explored up and down the fenceline and the pond edge. We gave ourselves plenty of time to both relax and explore. No one else was around or checked on us during our visit. However we were made aware in advance that sometimes the property can be rented for camping so that is something to verify when booking. This is a great spot to work with your dog on recall as they can run pretty far ahead, and then you can yell loudly for their return and reward that response with a treat. That is what we did with our dogs and they were exhausted at the end of two hours. A very nice Sniffspot we will return to. Lori H.

55My Australian shepherd and I had an amazing time at Keith’s fully fenced dog park! My pup had plenty of room to run and play. It was great having a private spot to relax with my friend while my dog enjoyed himself. The seating area was comfortable and we really appreciated the heaters. There was fresh water available for my dog and he even had a place to charge my phone!Maria M.

Kerry's 8 Acre Unfenced Private Dog Park In Fredericksburg | Sniffspot
55If dogs could rate this park, it’d be five barks! Wide open spaces for zoomies, plenty of sniff-tastic scents, and no pesky leashes—just pure joy. Our pup ran like a racecar, made new furry friends, and had the time of their life. The park is clean, secure, and even has shaded seating for humans. A must-visit for any dog who loves adventure!Cristine G.

55Stopped by with my 2 girls and we loved this peaceful clean spot! At first my dogs didn't seem to understand that they were off leash but as they realized they could run, sniff, and play they walked around and had moments that ranged from exuberant running to just taking it all in at the top of the hill!
I felt safe when I parked my car and that's important to me.
I liked that the entrance (gate) was close to my vehicle.
My pups are exhausted and sleeping soundly!
They've been thoroughly spoiled today and exercised!
Thank youMary N.

FAQ About Fredericksburg 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. 4% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Fredericksburg 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 354 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 546 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.
