55Loved our time here! Great brush for retrieves, walking paths, and plenty of space. The host was incredibly kind when I had questions about bringing my toddlers and even left out some dog + kid toys for us. We can’t wait to visit again, highly recommend! Emme H.

Hunt Homestead on Red Oak Creek (6.5acres) | Sniffspot
55My dogs loved this spot. It’s a large open field with grassy paths, a few small wooded paths, and a large creek. Finding the spot was easy, the driveway was pretty rough and bumpy, parking was simple, and complimentary items were provided in the parking area. We forgot a water bowl but were thankful to see that a collapsible bowl had been provided for us. We enjoyed walking around the grassy areas before playing a game of “find it” where we threw a bumper toy into the tall grassy area for the dogs to search for. This was an excellent confidence building exercise for my insecure cattle dog puppy. Happy to report they came out burr free. We didn’t go into the creek but it was very large with some stone platforms. We could see cows in the distance past a barbed wire fence. The sniff spot itself is not fenced in as of 2/17/25 so I would only recommend bringing your dog here if they have a solid recall. There were chickens present at the spot, so if you know your dog has a prey drive I would alert the host so they can make sure to put the chickens up prior to your arrival. We were pleased with the amount of land as there are not many large properties available in the area and we usually have to drive at least 45 minutes to an hour. Victoria H.

FAQ About Palmer 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.
