55Our Doodles had so much fun!! Very welcoming, several sniffing areas, and plenty of clean water bowls. After they scouted out the yard, they were off and running! I brought life jackets for my young Doodles since they've only been in a play pool. This was the best decision for my pups! I didn't have to worry. There is plenty of space in the yard for running. You won't regret enjoying time with your pup here~

55This is an amazing backyard with wonderful hosts. We were so impressed with this location that we booked eight weeks out. The yard is well kept and huge and the pool is sparkling and has a wonderful large dog ledge. Our boxer pup went right in with no fear her first visit. It’s very private and quiet with tons of shade and places to explore. You will not be disappointed! Marilyn S.

55Pristine backyard space. Huge space for pups to run around without being too big that they may get lost. My Golden loved the pool and had fun licking the waterfall. The Australian Cattle mix preferred sniffing the entirety of the lush landscape. Wonderful experience. Will for sure book again!Rachel S.

55We come every time I am in town, my dog starts barking when we get out of the car! Our only wish is that they put in a dock for my dog. 😉 He leaps over and over into the pool. Jen M.

FAQ about our Lake Montezuma 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 Lake Montezuma 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 17 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 3 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.
