55It was my first visit to a Sniffspot and it could not have been better! The beach was perfect, the water shallow for wading at the entrance point, I’m sure it was deeper for swimming. My pups did not swim but waded in the water. They were more interested in exploring the grounds and playing fetch. There was plenty of space for that too! We will be back! Cindy C.

55An amazing oasis! We traveled from downtown Chicago and brought three of our pups with us. They enjoyed an afternoon full of fetch and swimming. The bridge was lots of fun and a great confidence builder for my dogs.
If you’re coming from far away, there is also Costco nearby to refuel! We had a great time and it was worth the drive! Kathryn C.

55I learned my dog likes the water today! Their yard has a giant long stretch with plenty of trees to walk around and sniff and roll in the grass or play fetch and the pond has a decent amount of sandbar at the beach so even stubby legs can splash around, i would be here every weekend if i was closerJoe G.

55We just love this place. They have a great plot of land here, and we appreciate them sharing it with us! Our dogs love it as soon as we pulled up they recognized it and ran to the beach. We were quite late so didn’t get a chance to take pictures. But next time!Hector G.

55This place is beautiful! I didn’t expect the pond to be quite as close to the busy road as it was, but we made it work with long lines. Will definitely come back the next time the doggos need a quiet place to swim! Larkin F.

55This was our first Sniffspot visit and it couldn't have been better! The dogs had an absolute blast swimming and cooling off — it was the perfect way to escape the 100-degree heat. The property was spotless and clearly well cared for, with plenty of shade from the beautiful natural trees, which made a huge difference for all of us. We’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a safe and fun spot for their pups to play and stay cool!Magdalena B.

55This was a wonderful play experience for my dog. He loved to splash and run in the water and poke around all of the interesting plant life along the shoreline. It is a beautiful escape from the city, where the sidewalks aren’t much fun in this 90-degree heat. For me, the property was idyllic…a dream of a place to live. Gabrielle K.

55Came back for our second visit and it was just as great! Brought a friend’s dog this time and both pups had the best time swimming and running around.
We accidentally left a long leash behind, Christie messaged us right away to let us know.
Love this place. Chill vibes, happy dogs, and great host. Definitely part of our weekly summer routine now!Cris G.

55We loved going here, the awesome beach with the clear lake was a blast for our two pups. We confirmed with the owner about keeping their dogs inside beforehand (one of our dogs has terminal cancer and we didn’t want the chance of playing too much or too much added excitement) and they obliged which was a huge relief and a big thank you to the owners. Will definitely book this again in the future. Jon S.

55This private lake spot is a total win for dog lovers! It’s peaceful, scenic, and perfect for letting your pup run free and splash around. The water is clean and calm, making it ideal for swimming. We brought our hammock chairs and just relaxed while our dog lived his best life chasing sticks and doing zoomies.
Heads-up: the area is only partially fenced and it’s right next to a busy road, so strong recall is a must. If your dog tends to wander, definitely keep a close eye or consider a long lead.
All in all, this is the kind of spot we’ll be coming back to every week this summer. It’s a simple setup, but that’s what makes it perfect. Cris G.

55My husband and I brought our Malinois. He has his own fenced in quarter acre at home but we loved seeing him playing in the water and the long run he was able to go on prior to swimming. The water was perfect! We already have a booking for next week to come back! Shannon K.

FAQ About Plainfield Dog Parks
