55Great, quiet getaway with private trails, away from the noise and bustle of the city. My dog has some fear and anxiety, and this was a nice Sniffspot for her to explore worry-free. Host was communicative and accommodating as well!Kate A.

55The dogs loved it! But my youngest dog did take advantage of the holes in the fence to do some exploring. Get that recall solid and you’ll have a blast! Jennifer T.

55WOW! This SniffSpot was AMAZING. My boy had so much fun running through the trees and exploring. The trails were clearly marked so I didn’t even end up using the map provided. I was a little concerned about him wandering off the property, but the tree line and barbed wire fence around the majority of the property made it so easy! A little management with basic recall at the entrance (unfenced area) was all that was needed. I did get stuck on my drive to the property (turned into the wrong place), but the host’s husband and some neighbors came to help pull me out and were all so kind. We will definitely be back! Leti U.

55What a gem!! We had so much fun romping through the snow. Trails are well marked. The hike felt very private - even though you are never really very far away from where you parked. My two labs loved the chance to just run, sniff and explore. Highly recommend. We will make this a regular hiking adventure. Thank you for sharing your property!!Jennifer N.

55Even with the mud and the Melt, a super great time. I brought a friend for the first time and she really enjoyed the area as well, even though the fencing probably wasn't enough for her dog to where she felt comfortable enough to relax. It is enough for mine so it's great if your dog has a good recall or sticks fairly close or has good check-ins. Thank you so much to Katie for being an amazing host!Paige A.

55Great place to meet up with friend/s and have space enough to go for a walk and let the dogs stretch their legs at the same time. The dogs loved sniffing, running up and down the hills, playing with each other and looking for squirrels.Rene W.

55This spot is amazing!! We had so much fun exploring and I don’t even think we covered it all, I don’t know who is more tired me or the dogs! Katie was a great host! They loved the bridge and stream and of course chasing the peasants. There’s lots of rest areas and the trails are easily identifiable. Highly highly recommend!!!Raena M.

55Ok….how could we have missed this sniff ‘til now!!!???? Nestled in a mildly hilly landscape, this is, hands down, my dream sniffy! Perfect woods, perfect paths, perfect resting spots, perfect panoramic views replete with steel bridge over the cutest creek (possibly dried up in summer), and a perfectly friendly and welcoming host. The spot is super save. My Dobe has a rock solid recall, so we felt super safe! I spend about an hour hiking and still did not discover all the paths!! Just gorgeous. I absolutely looooove this spot. Cannot wait to get back. Susanne J.

55Was worried that it would be difficult to walk with all the recent snowfall but there was a walkway created for easy access. Katie also offered her snow shoes for me to use which was very nice. Overall Lydia and I had a great time!Danielle H.

FAQ about our Watertown 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.
