55We’ve come enough times now that we’ve nailed down the wash routine when we leave, they think if they run from me when it’s time to rinse they’ll get to stay longer lol. We’ve been doing 1.5 hours to give us enough time to get clean. Remember to expect mud but the shower head they provide has high pressure so the mud comes right off! 5 stars and nothing but smiles from these guys :)Grace S.

55Fern and I had a wonderful morning at the pond- once she warmed up to the idea of swimming, we played fetch for the whole hour into the pond and she had a blast! Ad mentioned there’s a lovely wash off station by the exit. We extended our stay to get a nice rinse off and start to dry before leaving.Annie J.

55Such a great spot! I have a reactive husky mix and the fence was definitely secure enough to keep him in, and there were no dogs or people in sight. Perfect for my senior dog to be able to run around and play and also cool off in the kiddie pool (which the water was very clean in) and rest in the shade. Loved that the bowls of water had ice in them, everything was very clean, it was very worth an hour drive, they were so worn out they slept the whole drive home!Anna B.

55We had an amazing time here! Our dogs loved running around (and swimming in) the pond, and we were pleasantly surprised by how much extra fenced yard area there was for the dogs to run around. Even in the summer heat, the water and shaded seating helped us all stay cool and refreshed :)Benjamin T.

55The absolute cream of the crop!!! We’ve been to numerous Sniff Spots and this one is by far my favorite one ! My Pup JL enjoyed this spot so much, there’s so much to do. He enjoyed the pool, the tug spot, the long span of lawn to run on, the fact that the host actually had ice in a water bowl for him 😊!!! It’s like she knew his favorite thing!!! We’ll definitely be going back as soon as possible! There were chairs in the shade ( for humans ) along with bottled water and bug repellent as well. This Spots’ people are top notch hosts. 5 star/A++ Cheryl W.

55Perfect spot to sit and watch your pups dip in the pond! My dog hasn’t been full swim swimming in a long time and she had no issue diving right in, so perfect for beginner swimmers! The rinse off spot is a game changer too- it washed the mud right off of them with ease. Neighbor dogs did let out some barks but nothing you couldn’t redirect most dogs from! Janessa L.

55Another great visit to this spot. Grass was newly mowed. Dogs had a fun visit. If only I could buy a few acres like this for my future craft tiny house I would be thrilled! Meanwhile we will just visit and contemplate the universe. Thank you. Julia G.

55Beautiful place my dogs loved. The grass is longer (the owner explained she’s trying to help the fireflies), so be prepared to sacrifice a couple balls to the field if you have easily distracted dogs like mine, but totally worth it! This area is stunning, and I love the hammock in the trees.Morgan B.

FAQ About Candler 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. 2% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Candler area are 5 stars.
