55This place is amazing, and the host is even more so. It was a great experience overall. Our dog loved the place and enjoyed the creek. The host was extremely nice, and I highly recommend getting the extra sourdough bread; it was delicious. We will definitely come back for sure.Deniz B.

55This property is truly amazing. The property itself is gorgeous, and very clean. There are so many activities for the dogs: various fields for fetch, a nice creek for swimming. We can’t wait to return! Marnie is a lovely host. She left some treats for the dogs, and some water bottles for the humans.

55I reserved this spot for a picnic with my Dad for Father’s Day and it was perfect. They have a creek that runs all through the property and many many shaded trails. We found a shaded spot by the creek and sat on a log for a while before we ate our lunch at the picnic table. We got to walk and catch up with talking while our girl ran around, swam, and sniffed like crazy! Thank you all for the treats and beautiful Sniffspot! We will be back with our friends who have a cocker spaniel. Angel P.

55My dog had an absolute blast running around the farm. He mostly wanted to stick to the clover field and just play with a ball, but still loved running around, sniffing, hopping in and out of the creek. I even got him to go on the nature trail through the woods for a little bit before he decided that he wanted to roll in the clover more. The property is super safe and well maintained. It was wonderful to see him so enthusiastically exploring a new spot. Thank you so much for having us! ALLISON S.

55Dogs had a blast running around and sniffing everything. They had not been around water very much and they did check it out . They also enjoyed checking out the goats in front pasture from the safety of the car backseat . Would definitely be back in future. ThxJudith H.

55We had a fabulous outing with our pup! The woods were beautiful, trails were very evident without disturbing the natural beauty. Very well thought out, there was even a can of bug spray at one of the benches along with toys for the dog to play with. We will definitely be back and recommend to everyone with pups!Theresa M.

FAQ about our Gainesville 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.

All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Gainesville area are 5 stars.
