55We enjoyed our first visit to this Sniffspot! The yard is big enough for us to throw the ball and our dog to get some running in. There is a little kiddie pool which our dog loved laying down in in between chasing the ball. Bring a towel! There were balls and a Chuckit also. A chair under shade. Backs up to some pretty open space. The host has signs for where to park and where to enter etc which makes it nice and easy. My dog got pretty dirty between the dirt and the pool water but he was so happy it was definitely worth it. We'll be back!Melissa D.

55I have 2 spoos, one that likes to swim, one that doesn’t. The host has balls, water, etc. for convenience. My girl had a blast jumping in the water to get the ball, but my boy mostly ran around the yard. Pool was clean with steps to walk down, important for mr. scardy. I would definitely go again.Jane E.

55What a great time! I think I had more fun than my dog! Friendly host met me in front of his house and showed me the way to the pool. He had lots of amenities. I definitely appreciate the drinking water, toys, floaters, and even large dog life vest. The area and pool was clean. The pool was a cool temperature for a hot summer day. Only thing was lots of long dog hair, but that wasn’t an issue because we are swimming in a dog’s pool with our dog! Hope to come again! Vi M.

55Maxie’s pool was a delight. Sparkling water, tidy backyard and thoughtful amenities (water for dogs and humans, life vests for both, floatable fetch toys, waste bags, etc.).
The host was gracious in all communication, met us at the entrance and gave a quick useful tour of the space since this was our first visit. My dog enjoyed her time in the water.
There is a convenient ledge inside the pool bordering the fountain. Swimming from the pool entry steps to ledge is a nice short distance with safe end points for dog height, which might work well to introduce swimming to a dog new to the activity.

55Will definitely be back. The host was very gracious and welcomed us in on our first visit and gave a brief rundown of the pool. Then let us do our thing. My dog wasn’t ready to get in the pool yet but had fun sniffing around the yard. I got in the pool to try to get her in and the pool was very clean and the water was nice temperature in a very hot day. It’s so nice that the host offers water and toys and sunscreen if needed. julie b.

55We really loved Maxie’s pool! The pool was very clean when we visited on a Saturday morning. The entire area is fully fenced and has some artificial turf and the pavers are a little irregular- so no one slips and falls.
There are a lot of amenities- toys, life jackets, floats, etc.
We’ll be visiting again, I’d highly recommend this Sniffspot.Leela P.

FAQ about our Ben Lomond 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.
Are dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 95% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Ben Lomond area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 67 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 12 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
