Top Public & Private Dog Parks in Mills River, NC

You owe it to not only yourself, but your doggies as well. Excellent place for them to get their zombies out while you kick back and relax!!

I love Angie's place. It is exactly what my smaller dogs need. It is safe, quiet, plenty of space for them to run and play and a great area for me to sit and watch if I want. I would highly recommend.

The pups had a blast! Lots of shade and seating too. Easy to get to. Water available. And plenty of sniffing spots!

This was my second time here, and once again it was the perfect spot for my pups. I really like that it’s all shade, and the terrain is very interesting for the dogs. I’ll be back.

A nice little fenced in area with plenty of toys. Great spot if you are just looking to chill and let the pup sniff around. It is the backyard to a house and they have dogs that can bark, so don’t recommend if that will absolutely set your dog off. My pup needs a bit more space, but we’ll be back when mama is too tired to chase her around 10 acres. There’s a small garden along the fence that is covered with chicken wire and the chicken coop is covered with fabric - minus one little section. Not an issue for my dog, but might be important for others.

Dogs had plenty of space to run around and enjoy themselves. Chickens were a curiosity for them, but not an issue at all. Very secure.

Our first visit but it won’t be our last! Beautiful and peaceful property. Thank you for having water and bags available!

This was such a wonderful sniff spot ! We will 100% be back ! Our dogs had such a great time! It was so nice , clean , water provided , shade trees and so much more !!

Well fenced with no escape areas. Grass was nicely cut and the yard was very clean. Spot has shade and sun areas with chairs for the humans. Plenty of space to run and play. The slight incline to the yard makes it easy to play fetch while giving your baby extra exercise. Good communication with owner regarding access.

Angie's space is absolutely fantastic. It is exactly as mentioned and photographed and a great space for our pups to enjoy running and playing in a controlled environment. We love it as much as they do.

I love this spot for my dogs. It’s shady and lovely with places for humans to sit and has water and a garbage bin on site. My pups love exploring this spot.

My little guy had an amazing time at Cindy’s spot. The gate felt secure, there were chairs, a can, and a bowl. We played fetch for almost an hour and he enjoyed it so much I had a really hard time getting him to leave. We would definitely return to this sniff spot. Thanks so much!

Lovely yard. Enough space but not too much. Well kept. Smelled wonderful from the various trees and plants. Be sure you take your own poop bags and you will have to dispose of them elsewhere. Overall a really good experience.

We recently visited this Sniffspot with two dogs and booked it for an hour. Overall, the space was a great size—not too big or too small—for our dogs to enjoy. The host provided plenty of toys, two water bowls filled with water, and two chairs for us to sit and relax. The biggest highlight for us was the fencing, which felt very secure and was taller than many other fenced areas we've seen. However, one important thing to note is that there is a small chicken coop inside the fenced yard. Unfortunately, the coop itself is not very secure. When our smaller dog, who is not prey-driven but very curious, pushed on it, part of the coop lifted, leaving a gap where a dog could potentially get inside or the chickens could escape. We hadn’t noticed this at first, so we initially let him explore, assuming he’d lose interest in the chickens. When he didn’t, we had to leash him to keep the chickens safe, which meant he wasn’t able to enjoy the space as intended. We’d recommend this Sniffspot for dogs who aren’t likely to fixate on chickens, but if your dog has any prey drive or curiosity toward small animals, this might not be the best fit. Hopefully, the host considers reinforcing the coop, moving it, or other alternative for added safety in the future.

Easy to find, good size, clean. There are chickens enclosed in a coop inside the fence so if you have high prey drive dogs might not be the best option. One of mine was fine but the other dog was not. I would need to visit with only one of my dogs next time.

Clean and safe play time! Our pup had a blast at Angie’s! Thank you for sharing your beautiful property.

Great, well kept place to hang out and play with some sticks. We had a blast! Thank you so much.

This was my first time at this Sniffspot, and I will be returning! Nice large yard, with a diverse terrain. My dogs felt comfortable right away. Water provided, seating and things to climb on.

Angie’s yard is just perfect! Sweetie had a blast running and playing. We are going back with a friend for a play date! Thank you Angie for sharing your “park” with us!

This spot is fantastic. It is the perfect size, fully and safely fenced, very clean and has everything you need. If I could give it more than 5stars, I would. Love it!
