55This was the best place I could have imagined for having my pups 1st birthday party with his best dog pal. The dogs had a blast and we will be going back, maybe with more friends in the future. Being in the veterinary field myself, I worry about secure fences and possible injuries non-stop. This oasis is such a peace of mind location, the fences are tall and well secured, the grass is well kept (even in the tall adventurous grass). The park bench is so nice for us humans to relax while the pups do their thing. I have recommended this spot specifically to all of my dog owner friends. Alyssa T.

55My dogs had so much fun!! They are both passed out sleeping it off. Fully fenced in with so much room to run and play plus a huge pond in the center with a dock for the dogs to dive off of. Samantha E.

55LOVED this place so much! Super easy access right off the highway and worth the drive! My dog had so much fun in the tall grass and in the pond, and even was brave enough to jump off the dock! Perfect for meeting multiple dog friends because of how much space but also perfect if you’re here with just your own dog! This spot will be a regular visit for us now!ryleigh p.

55Worth the drive! Lots of space, felt super safe, easy to find. I enjoyed relaxing in the grass while the dogs ran around me. The dogs loved it. I added time while I was there because they were having a good time. One got to zoom around and the other was in her element- my little hippo in the water.
They were super messy from going in the water so be sure to plan for stinky car rides home and baths after. Haha. They slept all night when we got back.
It’s so nice to have enriching spaces to go to for reactive dogs. Lynn R.

55Fantastic sniffspot. My dogs had the absolute best time running around here. The shade from the trees is so nice in the hot part of the day. The fence is so well secured I didn't have to worry about my 13# beagle getting out. The picnic table was such a nice place for me and my husband to sit while the dogs did whatever they wanted. Make sure you bring towels if your dogs swim, water and bowl, and something to wipe down muddy paws. Alyssa T.

55My large lab mix and I had a GREAT time! The fence was secure and the entrance was easy to find. We spent 2 hours there and he only stepped on a seed once, and it was an easy fix. I’ll definitely be back!!Eva M.

55This sniff spot is amazing! We drove close to an hour to get here and it was worth every minute. It was very secure, easy to find, and I was never worried about other dogs anywhere nearby. My dogs also spent most of the time in the pond, so we can't wait to come back! Hannah C.

55This spot was amazing! Easy to find, huge space with a picnic table for the humans to rest and tons of shade trees - features which will be great this summer. Our one pup went hardcore zoomies the second we stepped inside and she loved running around and splashing in the pond. We will definitely be back. Kelsey S.

FAQ about our Festus 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.
