55It was perfect! You couldn’t ask for a nicer private place to bring your dog. Mary was an accommodating and good host. Our 5 month old labradane had an injury from playing rough and tumble with older but smaller dogs and we needed a place to let him roam while he heals, but we’ll be back anyway! We asked for the kiddie pool and it was perfect until he gets used to Mary’s normal swimming pool. So clean!!!!! Good toys too! Laura M.

55This spot was amazing! There was some bad weather earlier and she asked if we could come a few minutes later and even gave us a few extra minutes! The yard and pool are both very spacious and our two pups couldn't have been happier sniffing everything and running around. We will be coming back for sure!Robert M.

55My favorite Sniffspot!!! The pool is amazing…and if your pup is not used to swimming, the yard is fenced and the perfect size the keep an eye on them from the pool. Plenty of sun and shade for pups to lay and relax. Lots of sniffs for them…we will be back!Leonore U.

55They left out towels and water toys for the dogs and potty bags. Very clean. There are also little trash cans and water bowls. Can’t wait to book again. We did this to celebrate our fur baby’s 2nd bday. Evelyn L.

55SO MUCH FUN! We drove down from Chicago so our pups could have some pool time, absolutely worth the trip. Mary was able to quickly respond and assist when I asked about the doggy life vest. The pool was beautiful and clean, perfect way to spend a summer afternoon. We will definitely plan another visit back soon! Emma F.

FAQ About Manteno 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.
