55Absolutely AMAZING! Worth the 50 minute drive for our pups to run absolutely FREE! Shelly has a gorgeous property with 3 sections to choose from; one being a huge field! When we arrived, she gave us a goody bag with treats that our pups loved! Not just that, we were celebrating our pups 2nd and 9th birthday and she gave our pups homemade cupcakes!! 🥹
For the first time our pups could run as fast as they wanted and we are heading home with some tired babies! We cant wait to visit again!!Victoria G.

5510/10 Recommend this spot! We drive 45 minutes and couldn’t have been happier. From the moment we unclipped the leash our 2 never stopped smiling. There were 3-4 fully enclosed pastures to explore. Horses that didn’t seem bothered by our presence in another property and we added the Fast Cat lure course which was the best decision we made! They even provided a “ party bag” for the dogs with treats and poop bags! Pools can be filled with water upon request. Everything your dog could want. These are DOG PEOPLE and it shows! We will be back. Kathleen Z.

55It’s always such a great time when we’re able to make the trip out to visit Katie’s property. My dogs and I love to explore and get some training in. This is a proven safe place for us to do it all.
It’s high tick season so be vigilant about your preventatives and post-adventure pest checks.Alicia L.

55We had such a great time, as always! The mosquitoes weren’t bad at all (thanks to the bug spray at the doggie toy library). The ticks honestly weren’t terrible either, but you’ll still find a few on you and your dogs. It may be worth bringing a small water bottle with a little isopropyl alcohol in it so you can “dispose” of ticks as you find them during your visit. Wiping the dogs down with doggie bug spray seems to make a difference, too.
Ticks or no ticks, this is one of our favorite spots for a reason. Gorgeous land, SO many smells, perfect combo of wooded trails and wide open space—it’s definitely worth a visit (or several)!Sarah S.

55Amazing property! Starts with a massive wide open field which lead into some wooded trails we even found a super cute in the woods campsite with a picnic table and baby charcoal grill. My English Setter loved having such a space to run around in! Gabrielle A.

55Fantastic spot! My wife, Juniper, and I had an absolute blast getting lost in the woods and taking pictures at the arch!! Be cautious of the few dips and divots throughout the field and as always in Virginia be mindful of ticks. Overall fantastic property that we will be visiting again! Chandler Z.

55The boys and I come here every 1-2 weeks or so, and we absolutely love it. I think I have just as much fun as they do. It’s been really cool to see the land change with each season, and tbh, to see my boys change, too. The skittish one is a bit braver, and the flight risk has much better recall than he did even a few months ago. We’re repeat visitors for a reason, and I don’t see that changing any time soon.

55Another beautiful day with very happy dogs! We found Rub-A-Dub Dog care down on Bridge Rd that has self service dog wash stations! This is great for when the pups find a muddy or stinky spot to roll in. We really appreciate the new Dog Toy Library and the opportunity to be in the woods. Beth G.

FAQ About Suffolk 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. 12% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Suffolk 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 218 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 314 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.
