55Wonderful spot! A lovely wooded area with a little stream and lots of room to run around - the doggos had a blast. :) No fencing, as it says in the description, but if your dog is call-trained you'll be fine. We would love to come again! Jessica L.

55Very nice spot. Easy access and I could see my dog at all times. It was nice, as I could sit on patio steps and watch him sniff to his heart’s content. Usually bored in 30 minutes, but didn’t my want to leave. Melissa S.

55The grass was lush and the pups loved it. The slight hill gave them a work out and got them tired quickly. They had such a great time exploring the grounds. We will definitely be back! RM A.

55Wonderful yard and generous hosts. I loved that my dog could play off-leash in the yard, and then we could walk the perimeter of the unfenced area with him on leash. Such a fun day! He slept the whole way home. Karen L.

55Great property for dogs to run and loved the creek through the 2nd gate, where the dogs chased each other, swam and ran…round and around. It was a wonderful experience!!! lori b.

55This is a terrific spot! It’s a combination of a very large suburban backyard that backs onto a beautiful wooded area that features a creek and field. Our dogs loved exploring the varied terrain. The yard offers ample room for play and games. There is even a place for the pups to dig! The space is very clean and well cared for. Humans will appreciate the lovely, shaded patio that offers a gorgeous view of the surroundings. John was friendly and communicative. We appreciated the clear and specific directions about how to find the place and where to park. Highly recommend!Marie C.

55Great spot! Lots of space to run! If you trust your dog past the fenced area there’s a small creek across the back of the property for a cool dip on a hot day. Our pups loved it! A little gnatty (to be expected in this area) so next time I’ll be sure to wear bugspray, but highly recommend! Becky B.

55We had such a good time exploring John’s property today! He was very welcoming and showed me where everything was before leaving us to it. There’s lots of room to play and explore for your pup. Since the humidity has already set it, it was pretty buggy, so make sure you spray everyone down. Emmi N.

55Really gorgeous yard, tons of space. My dog loved it. There are people coming and going out the front which is accessible to dogs in the space. No one was close enough for my dog to care or investigate, but definitely keep your dog to the backyard behind the house and keep an eye on them if they are reactive.YANELLE G.

55The yard was exactly as described. The fence was secure and I felt safe with my dog visiting! The host left treats for both humans and dogs. The closure on the gate is perfect if you pull it tight. It was so nice to let my dog run freely in such a large area! Cassandra S.

FAQ about our Fairfax Station 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.
