55This spot was amazing! My pups had the best time swimming. I’m always nervous to have my dogs unleashed in areas that aren’t fenced but this spot was secluded, we didn’t hear other dogs or people the whole time when we were down at the river. Emmily B.

55I finally found our PERFECT SniffSpot. My cattle dogs love to swim and fetch sticks, the water is calm and flows at the perfect speed! Making it a safe place for deep water swim sessions. We even saw a family of geese floating along the river. The property is a dream, easily accessible and clear directions (the map in the photos is so helpful) we didn’t take advantage of the other areas available to us, pretty much spent the entire 1.5hr on the river. But, the land and homestead is breathtaking. My pups were in river heaven today, and we are already planning our next return! Chelsea W.

55My dog loved this spot and so did I! The river was beautiful and the current wasn’t too strong. The fenced pasture wasn’t ideal for long distance fetch, Erin S.

55We really enjoyed the river access! It was our labs first time having access to a body of water like that so he went a little rogue😂 We plan on going back very soon just with a 50ft leash for him! We loved it!Madison M.

55Very beautiful and quiet. Great for Charlie who is a reactive blue Heeler. He is in training and he was able to enjoy himself in the river and in the enclosed fenced area. Mya S.

55Sky had a ton of fun. Water seems a little chilly. He has a lab brain in an Am Staff body so mum needs to keep an eye on signs of "he's frozen but he's not cold". Ines D.

55Host was pleasant and walked us through the location. Land by river is rocky, but did not hurt our dog. When we went to the first fenced in area on the right of the path, there were a good amount of greenery and thorny plants, be careful. Pup had fun dipping his toes in the water and seeing his first horses!Amaya-Giselle V.

55Nice spot. It was great to see my girl navigating the rocky river bed (on leash) like a champ. I didn’t feel 100% sure about letting my good girl off leash on our first visit. I thought best to learn the area better first. The fully fenced area was a welcome, off leash, place to play. Amelia L.

55This was a beautiful spot. We had a few swimmers in the group so they enjoyed the river access. Rena greeted us and showed us around as if was our first time visiting. Great place for reactive pups as it was a quiet and calm environment. It was nice having both the fenced area and the river access. Thank you for sharing your property! Angie F.

FAQ About Sandy 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.
