55This was our first sniffspot experience and this place was fantastic for both our dog and the 7 year old kiddo. Haha. Our dog loved being able to run really fast and leap and bound and the kiddo loved the hammocks and trails. The goats were maybe a little too interesting for our dog but we redirected 😆Jennifer B.

55Today was the first time we visited Duggan Ranch. Our 16 month old Aussiedoodle, Harry and his best friend Daly, an 80 pound Chocolate lab had a marvelous time running, sniffing everything, and meeting the goats.
It is an absolutely beautiful and restful place. It is well cared for. Our granddaughter enjoyed the tree swing and running with the dogs.
There was plenty of fresh water available for the dogs, along with dog toys, towels, treats for the goats etc. We met Daniel, our host, when he was replenishing the ice for the cooler that contained water for his human guests, and checking to make sure the spot was ready for us.
Thank you Daniel, for sharing such a wonderful spot with us! Cheryl S.

55Daniel’s place was wonderful!It was a little rainy when we got there and he anticipated everything we might need. Umbrellas for us, dog treats and toys and so much room to roam! The dogs were so happy and so were we. We discovered mulch covered paths and lots of spots to sit and enjoy. We brought two lab springers who had a great time.Yvonne S.

55This SniffSpot is the end all of SniffSpots. My 3 pups and I visited on a dreary Monday morning as a way to run off some of the rain blahs and had a ball! Daniel has thought of everything, including readily available umbrellas for humans. We'll be back!Kirsten S.

55Highly recommend visiting this spot!! It was so fun to feed the goats and our dogs absolutely loved all the space to run. There’s plenty of toys and treats, as well as other goodies to use while there. Looking forward to our next time in Minnesota so we can visit again! Isabella D.

55My dog had a joyful romp throughout the fenced grounds and experienced her first goat encounter. So much fun. Daniel is very responsive to questions and provides all the essentials (plus more!) for dogs and the humans they bring along. Thank you!Chris E.

55This sniffspot was AMAZING. The goats, the amenities (bottled water, treats for the goats and dogs, a hose and bowls, headlamps available for evening visits), the paths—all exceeded my expectations. I have a reactive dog and wasn’t sure how she would do with the goats but she did great—just very curious. Overall, this place is worth the drive and spending a little more for a great experience!Danielle H.

55This was our first SniffSpot and I am fairly certain nothing will come close to how amazing this place is! We are on a two week road trip and the dogs (and humans!) loved every bit of love and attention that was put into this SniffSpot. The goats are just the cherry on top!! Highly recommend and the only negative is we don’t live close enough to visit regularly!!! We will absolutely be visiting anytime we’re in town!Jacqueline R.

55Our favorite spot!! Pup LOVES the amount of land & interesting stuff to explore, although he keeps trying to lick the goats (who are very cute and very patient with him lol). The hosts put out dog treats, goat treats, free water, and toys to play with!Sab F.

55This was our first time using a sniffspot. It was a great experience. The host has everything there that you could need. It was easy to find with signs showing you exactly where to go. Our very busy goldendoodle had a great time and was so tired by the time we left. We would highly recommend this sniffspot and will be visiting again!!Melissa H.

55Daniel really goes above and beyond to make this sniffspot a 10/5.....you can tell nothing is half-a**ed around there lol!! From beautiful trails that were well kept, chairs throughout so you can relax and enjoy all over the property, tons of toys and treats and even all sorts of ways to pick up after your pup. There truly wasn't a single thing that hadnt been considered. I felt beyond safe bringing my dog there who requires a bit extra. To top it if we had to cancel last minute and we were still able to get a refund! Sweetest people ever. Best place! We will 100% be returning!!Kassandra P.

FAQ about our Lake Crystal 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. 94% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Lake Crystal 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 9 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 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.
Does Lake Crystal have any fully fenced dog parks?
