55Great spot to run your pup ! Highly recommend this spot. It’s very secure and fenced. There was no concerns about my dog getting out. Very well kept and clean. Maze loved the random tunnels on the property and she had a blast being able to run at top speeds throughout the acreage! It was a plus that there were chuck it balls on-site !Will definitely visit again. Easily accessible from Maryland. Kathy was super friendly and welcoming =) Kara and Mirah M.

55This sniffspot is such a find! My 1yo lab was in heaven! The Acres is a lovely tranquil place, fully and securely fenced. Nine acres creatively and conscientiously planned. There is a huge open field for running and lure course if you choose (which we did and it was great fun!)… low rolling hill with bushes to wind in/out… several well kept benches/swings… trees with ample shade… barrel tubes to run through… and a lovely perimeter walk of the fence-line. Safety and cleanliness are obviously at the top of Kathy’s list. No doubt this property is a labor of love. We enjoyed our afternoon play, the lure course, and the one-on-one training we scheduled for after (yes, Kathy is an amazing trainer too!). I can’t say enough nice things about The Acres and Kathy. Just lovely! ;)Kristin W.

55Our dogs had a wonderful time playing, sniffing, and running! The whole play area was fenced and there were tunnels for them to explore and run through. The waste stations are great and there were benches and places to sit as well! We will definitely be back!Elizabeth L.

55Our dogs don’t have place to run free so they love coming here and so do we. Clean, well supplied and a solid fence so if they run out of sight we don’t have to worry.Angela E.

55This spot is soooooo WONDERFUL!!! 9 acres to roam and run. It gives me such joy to see my two furs roaming free. And for me to be hands free and strolling along with them without holding on to their leashes is such a gift!! My one dog checked the entire perimeter of the fence and it is fully secure!!!
Very clean and lush!! elizabeth K.

55This is the best Sniffspot! It is clean, well maintained, and safe. I tend to be anxious letting my dog off leash for safety reasons and this is a spot where I feel comfortable doing this and can relax and enjoy my time with him. Have been to this spot before and will keep going again and again! Laney R.

FAQ about our Gap 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.

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.
