55I took my 2 rottie mixes and they loved all the nooks and crannies to explore. Parking was easy and close to the entry gate. There was a bowl of water available, which was great because I didn’t think to take any and my dogs definitely needed it! Laurie O.

55Vicki was friendly and helpful and the dogs had a great time! The deck had a small way the dogs could get out but she blocked it with a baby gate and it worked well 😊Kelly F.

55Wonderful place to let my pupper run! He loves the creek and steep embankment so he can practice his climbing skills. Great shade and he loves the little swimming pool! He spent abt 25% of his time in the baby pool cooling himself off. Thank you!! 👍🏻😉Laura A.

55This is our second visit. Ruger knew what to expect but still isn't sure how to handle the super water bowl :) we love hiding around the property and calling him to get him all the exercise! Heather M.

55We love this spot! We just have on dog and he doesn't even know what to do with all the space to run, play and relax!! He is a bit confused with large water bowl (kiddie pool), but drinking while rinsing low beans off seems a good combo. We will be back! Heather M.

55Our first time using sniffspot and it was terrific. The space was lovely. The hosts left fresh water, poop bags, wading pool. A very nice, well-maintained space. We'll be back. Karen B.

55The space is amazing for multiple dogs or if your dog likes some room to sniff around or play fetch. It's a more expensive spot, but it's definitely the best one we've been to. The owners have done a great job fencing off the creek area. The grass is well kept. The creek water-level was very low when we came.
Be aware, on a muggy day, it will be buggy. With no breeze, we had bugs in our eyes almost the entire time. It didn't take away from the overall fun, but if I come again with similar weather, I may consider bringing a small battery-operated personal fan to keep them out of my face. Stevanie R.

55Really massive spot! Was worth the effort to travel here. The very back is legit, legit woods. Like I went back there and had a little trouble finding my way back across the creek to the open area. My dog had no trouble navigating though. The neighbor’s dogs were out and barking. Didn’t bother my dog too much, but might be an issue for others. My dog had a lot of fun exploring! We will be back.Christine C.

55For the dogs: my pup loved it. She didn’t want to get in the car. Thus the 5star rating. Compared to others it wasn’t my favorite but there’s tons of variety for the dogs to sniff out — the creek, wood piles, and fences.
For the humans: the descent to the creek is very steep. There’s not really a good place to sit down there. It really feels like you’re in someone’s backyard. Wear bug spray. Pack your own poop bags and water.
Room for improvement: the other sniff spots we’ve been to offer toys as well as poop bags, treats, and things that make it feel less like were in someone’s backyard and more like we were using a business. Diana P.

55It was great! The kids loved climbing in and out of the creek, and Silvie enjoyed exploring. One drawback was the dogs next door were fence fighting with my reactive pup, but that seems like something that can’t really be controlled. We will be back:)Holly B.

55Perfect location and yard set-up! Our dog had a blast. Great mix of flat yard in the front and the creek/trees in the back. There were several balls to play fetch with. Access through the driveway was just as described. Will definitely be returning! Amanda S.

55Really nice spot! I love that you drive into a gated area so that once you’re inside, you can just let your dogs out of the car in a secure spot. Extra helpful when you have 3 dogs with you! LolAlyse M.

55This is a completely enclosed yard (front and back) where you drive in and close the gate behind you, which is great because flight risk is eliminated even getting the dogs out of the car if you have explorers. The large front and back lawns are not muddy. There are wooded/deep brush areas that, while I wouldn’t want to chase dogs into, are still carefully fenced, including a creek, so no flight risk for at least medium or large dogs. The car port is exposed, along with lawn mower and life’s usual collection of garage stuff, so watch that dogs don’t roam in there. But owners seem to have taken great care around perimeter. We’ll be back.Stuart K.

FAQ About Germantown 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.
