55**Review: A Hidden Gem for You and Your Pup!**
I recently discovered this outstanding little spot, and I couldn't be happier with my experience! Nestled not too far from Highway 17, it’s the perfect getaway for both you and your furry friend.
The area features two cozy pods, making it a lovely place to unwind. Bella and I spent the best hour there, playing on the muddy shore and splashing in the water. It was such a joy to see her having a blast!
This location is not only clean and pleasant but also wonderfully quiet, allowing us to fully enjoy the beauty surrounding us. The short drive to get here is definitely worth it.
What can I say? I absolutely love this place! If you’re looking for a beautiful spot to escape for a bit, I highly recommend it. It’s truly awesome!
Thank you !!!Anna M.

55If you have seen this listing, you absolutely need to book it! My dog Harley and I spent 1.5 hours here on a beautiful day. There are two ponds and so many fun connected trails on the backside of the property. Tons of open area for your dog to run around and plenty of shade to cool off. I will make it a priority to come back as many times as possible! It truly is one of a kind sniff spot and I am so grateful Rachel and her family are sharing it. Thank you so much!!! Kenzie F.

FAQ About Nakina 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.
