55I highly recommend this place! It’s easy to find, and the property itself is beautiful. There’s tons of space for your dog to run and explore, plus plenty of toys available if you don’t bring your own. There are even two kiddie pools, which is perfect if your dog enjoys water as much as mine does. Grace I.

55The host was so kind and super accommodating, the Sniffspot was clean, and full of fun things for my doggie and her friends to enjoy. It also is stocked with all your doggy needs like a water hose and bags, I’m almost sure I saw treats too! Paris B.

55Now that I’m officially cleared for royal activity, I had a play date with Sir Lucifer—and what better setting than Serenity Acres, a local SniffSpot fit for royalty! 👑
We ran full zoomies, played chase, admired the majestic horses next door, and I even tried out my agility skills (I crushed it, obviously). There were so many things to sniff, explore, and climb on—truly a dream for any curious pup.
From wide open fields to shady trees and fun terrain, this place gets a four out of four paw review from me. 🐾🐾
I can’t wait to return for another royal romp!

55What a great spot! I have 3 dogs ranging from 5lbs to 75lbs and all of them are having a great time. Plenty of clean toys, long and short grass for the tiny one to hunt grasshoppers, and kiddie pools for the big guy to lay in. I’m looking forward to them taking some long naps when we get home today.

55The area is fully fenced and plenty of space to run around and have fun! The horses were immediately adjacent but that just gave us an opportunity to do some trigger training! We only heard dogs far off in one corner of the spot. Kaitlyn K.

FAQ About Nicholasville 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.
