What people say about dog parks around Detroit, Michigan

Great communication and lovely private yard!

Larae B.

May 2024

The big yard was perfect for a nice game of fetch - plus plenty of things to sniff around and explore. There was a nice spot for me to sit and a clean water dish for my dog with a spigot to replenish. The yard was clean and it wasn’t even muddy despite having a bunch of rain that morning. We will be back for more fetch!

It was nice to finally see a new Sniffspot in Detroit so I don't have to drive as far to find a worry free place where my dog can roam and play with her toy. She was very accommodating and we had fun!

The space is beautiful. It did seem like we came at a bad time because the neighbors were doing yard work, so it was a bit noisy. Louis still enjoyed sniffing around by the water. We will definitely be back.

Sal let us bring a kiddy pool for the dog which was awesome on a super hot day :) He also allowed us to use the toys available and our dogs played together for a bit. Thanks again!

It’s a great spot, especially because it’s close by (so many good spots are a bit a ways a way lol). Really a lot of space to run and train off leash recalls and run a ball down. My dog loved it, and we will be back!

Beth G.

April 2023

Really wonderful space that our three dogs enjoyed immensely. Lots of different areas for the dogs to explore and smell. Felt 100% safe and comfortable. I particularly loved the bird houses around the space (so did my birding dog!). Looking forward to returning soon.

Kim R.

This is a wonderful spot to let your dogs play privately! Great space, lots of good sniffs, and secure fencing.

Laura R.

April 2023

Plenty of space for playing fetch, and my dog loved being able to sniff all the scents amongst the brush and trees. There were lots of toys available, too. Great spot!

Cynthia H.

May 2023

Fully fenced. Lots of places to sniff and run. Exactly what my boy needed after so many rainy days. He tried to make friends with the dog next door and she called him back in after a few sniffs. We had a good time. We practiced recalls with all the places to hide. A tiny dog might be able to get through the gate.

Lauren L.

May 2023

Such a great spot! My pup had so much fun running and expiring. We brought our own balls, but the host provides them as well. There was also ample shade for my gal to cool down after running. Just a heads up, I do think that a larger dog could open the gate on their own, but I just watched mine and it wasn’t an issue.

Hannah B.

This spot is amazing! I live in an apartment so it’s hard for my dog to be able to run around and just be a dog. We just moved to the area so this spot will definitely be our new go to. It is secured and lots of shade for sunny days. He loved exploring in all of the trees.

Colette W.

July 2023

It was the perfect spot for my puppy. He ran and sniffed until he was too tired to explore any more. Even though we brought our own toys there were balls and frisbees to use. I will definitely go back.

Michael C.

July 2023

Lots of room for my dog to run, dig and play. This was our second visit and we had a great time.

Jeanne W.

July 2023

This is a great spot! My dogs loved playing in the big fenced in yard. There is lots of wide open space to run and also a wooded area with a trail to explore. Lots of neat spots to sniff! At a couple points we heard another dog barking but we never saw another dog. My dog’s barely noticed the barking because there was so much to explore! We will be back!

Emily G.

August 2023

This was our first Sniffspot reservation and we were pleased! We had booked very last minute and there were no issues, our dogs loved it.

Cynthia H.

August 2023

It was EXTRA sniffy today! My boy crashed when he got home. He had so much fun chasing the balls, sniffing "bunny farts," chasing birds, looking for me... He loves this spot! clean and secure! Watch where walk in the back for a little uneven ground but its such a huge yard with such a natural setting, I love it too.

Lauren G.

August 2023

This was my first Sniffspot experience and it was perfect. My dogs were so happy! They are both about to crash hard. Mission accomplished!

Margaret B.

September 2023

My dog loved all the great sniffs. Very secure and clean. Big enough to fling tennis balls with some wooded areas for exploring. If your dog is dog reactive there could be other dogs visible but we did not see anyone. Shaded in the morning and very pleasant.

Hannah B.

September 2023

We had another great time here as always. The dog next door was out this time but he was very friendly! My dog definitely enjoyed the company lol

FAQ about our Detroit dog parks
