55This spot is amazing! The hosts thought of everything down to disposable dog water bowls. The pool wasn’t freezing (thank you!) and I was able to get in to get my dog a little more confident in getting in a new pool. She had the best time checking out the huge yard and playing some frisbee between dips in the pool. The fence is super secure and the spot was really quiet. We will for sure be back soon! Amy E.

55This place was wonderful! We've been looking for a place with a pool, because Maebh loves to swim but has never seen a pool - until today! It took her a few minutes to warm up to the idea, but then she didn't want to leave. The hosts were very kind and left us toys, an emergency kit, and fresh drinking water. Directions were excellent! We just hope we didn't disturb anyone, because someone would get excited and play bark every so often. We will definitely be back. Jess M.

55What a wonderful place to explore and exercise. It was our first time at "The Acres" and we will definitely return. A nice added bonus is a trail outside the fenced area that leads to a stream. Next visit we will be exploring that as well. Kathy was a wonderful hostess as always.Tanya P.

FAQ about our Manchester 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 Manchester 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 177 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 19 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.
