55Beautiful spot! Map was easy to understand once you got going, had to turn around at one point because the marsh crossing (I believe) was too overgrown to go through. Could also have been my mapping skills at that point though! Loved the creek area where our dogs could cool off. Didn’t have time to explore the full property so I am very excited to return! Host was friendly and accommodating, bringing us out a printed map. My Boston Terrier had a blast and so did I! Megan K.

55We always enjoy coming here! The property is kept clean and there is a lovely new wooden bridge to help keep you dry in the areas that typically gather water. We love it!Alyssa P.

55We’ve been to this spot many times and always love it! Since our last visit they’ve finished a lovely raised walkway over a particularly wet muddy section - this was especially appreciated today, as we visited after a heavy rainfall. As always, great sniffs, quiet and isolated - this is a great spot for sensitive pups. Erin and Jason B.

55What a beautiful property! Based on reviews, I booked 2 hrs for us to make the most of the trails and think we covered them all with over 5km tracked. Almost all of the trails are well-groomed, with some long grass on just a couple. We were very thankful for the map! We wouldn’t have gotten lost but it was helpful to make sure we covered as much of the property as possible. Luna had THE BEST time! Thank you for meeting us at the parking spot to welcome us! We took the owner’s advice and first headed left to “Downhill”. The view of “Meadow” and the new boardwalk was lovely! “Guardian” and “Locust” trails took some extra time to navigate the longer grass but still doable. Luna loved a dip in the creek! We will be back - thank you! Helen C.

55Amazing sniffspot! We had a great time. The trails are incredibly well maintained (and the map certainly helps although you can't really get lost). Martin was so helpful and always responsive. He has a beautiful property. We will definitely be back - summers are a little hot for my pup but there's shade throughout. We'll probably be spending most of our winter weekends here! Although the property is technically unfenced (and stated that way), the way the trails are groomed gives some nice boundaries. We still had our long leash on just in case but that's a personal choice! We're so looking forward to our next visit!! Thanks Martin!!Amy K.

FAQ about our Brant 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. 94% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Brant 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 217 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 28 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.
