55Perfect space to chase tennis balls, which was our goal! A chuck-it and plenty of balls were even provided onsite. Ample shade around the edges of the space for breaks from the sprinting. :) Would definitely come again.Marybeth H.

55Beautiful spot with plenty of shade to relax in! There are balls, a fetchit, and even a small dog pool available! The ground is pretty level and the grass is mowed low so a very safe spot for long runs after the ball. Susan is also very kind and accommodating! My new favorite sniff spot!Marissa O.

55With excellent fencing and plenty of private space, this spot is perfect for our active, yet dog-reactive, pup. It’s close to town with a rural vibe. Susan has created someplace special. Nancy S.

55This is an ideal spot. Sun, shade, space to run…
I loved having a safe space to practice recall with lots of off leash room. It’s close to me and the price is right for regular visits.Denise R.

55Pawfect spot! This is truly a spot where you can feel safe letting your dogs run offleash. The grass is kept cut short, so the dogs did not pick up any grass seeds or foxtails. There were no toxic or poisonous plants, no poison oak or anything like that. The fencing was secure. We did not encounter any other animals along any fencelines. There shady spots, comfy chairs, plenty of water (which also happens to be easy to refill if needed), supplies for picking up doggy waste, and even a Chuck It! with lots of balls.

55Monti’s Memorial Park was wonderful. Great space for one or multiple dogs. Plenty of shade, a dog wading pool, a Chuck-It with and endless amount of balls, dog poop bags and a shovel for gathering poops. Thank you Susan for sharing Monti’s space with us. Bullet, Shadow, and Bonzo absolutely loved their visit and we will certainly be returning! Preston J.

55A wonderful, completely outfitted (pool, balls and ball throwers, waste bags) treed and mowed field. Nice breezes and two of the most delightful hosts I’ve met, Paul who keeps the field in mint condition and Susan, who can tell fascinating stories about the history of the place plus stories about Monti, for whom the field is named. Clearly a “10” on a ten scale.Deborah B.

55There are a lot of pros for this site!
1) Large water bin. This is a big deal for my giant, slobbery dog. A normal water bowl isn't usually big enough for my dog and we both really appreciated the large bin here.
2) Large area. There are larger sniffspots out there, but most of the other sniffspots are a lot smaller than this one. This one is large enough that most dogs won't get bored too soon I think.
3) No barbed wire. All the rural sniffspots that I have been to before this one have a string of barbed wire at the top of the fence. If a dog knocks a human over near the fence or a dog puts his front paws up on the fence, there could be serious injury. I was SO pleased to see that this sniffspot has no barbed wire at all!
4) Flat area. While my dog really enjoys the smells of a more natural setting, this sniffspot is like a giant, very well maintained lawn, without mole holes, dog dug holes etc. The spot is very nice for human footing. If you are the kind of person who likes to walk at a good pace around the perimeter to move with your dog, you will really like this sniffspot.
5) Easy to get to. This sniffspot was practically a straight shot from my house and didn't take long. I thought it was really easy to get to.
While my dog is not a ball dog, I also want to mention for those people who have ball dogs, this sniffspot is a DREAM come true! There is a giant bin of balls and the sniffspot area is mostly one large open area. It would be a great place to throw balls.
The only suggestion I have for improvement is that the parking directions were a little unclear, and I didn't see the house numbers when I drove up. I only knew where to go because I recognized the fence from the picture on the snifffspot page. My suggestion is to put up a sniffspot sign where we are supposed to park - which will serve both to make sure we park in the right place and help first timers quickly find the right house.
That's just a minor suggestion. I want to end on a wholly positive note, so I'll add: The price is good too! :-) We go to sniffspots a lot. The cost adds up. So, I really appreciate the pricing at this sniffspot. We will definitely be going back!Jeannine B.

FAQ about our Gardiner 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. 98% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Gardiner 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 6 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 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.
