55Excellent time! Dogs had a blast, they are cautious around water so it was a great experience for them to get more comfortable without being overstimulated by other people or dogs.

55I think my Lola 🐶 enjoyed the scent of the ducks more than anything! She really enjoyed herself. The pictures don’t do this place any justice, IT’S HUGE! Super spacious and a lot of roaming for her sniff. It’s clean, quiet and really peaceful. We will definitely be back!

55We enjoyed our visit! The farm has beautiful grassy lanes and woods to explore. It borders Monticello Road, so my pup was on a long line during our visit. The entrance is a little difficult to see, so it's good to slow down and look carefully. Also, there are some odds and ends of lumber and other detritus on the property, but this is totally to be expected on old farm property. We look forward to a return visit!

55Unfortunately it was raining, thundering, and lightning when my dog and I visited. But the pond was so wonderful and we still had so much fun!! There were several toys available which was awesome since I forgot all my tennis balls at home. Had it not been for the weather my dog would’ve been in heaven. I will certainly be going back on a sun shiney day.

55This was the perfect place to take our dog for an Easter egg hunt. He had more than enough room to run, play and sniff. He even overcame his fear and went swimming in the pond for the 1st time. There’s plenty of accommodations upon arrival and we had no issues locating or accessing the sniff spot. We’ll definitely be back!

FAQ About Columbia 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.
