55We loved our visit to Sweetwater Court! Not only is it exactly as described and pictured, until you are there, the amount of relaxation I, as the human, had is simply off the charts.
Having to send our vaccination records to Cathy and Vernon gave me the peace of mind that we'd be spending time in a place that didn't risk my shepherd's health or mine.
My 9 year old GSD was joyous as she ran around, sniffed absolutely everything, and worked on her training with me.
Having a safe place to word on off leash recall and other commands is invaluable to me.
I chose Sweetwater Court for the more rural setting and we weren't disappointed. A gray tabby met us in the drive way, we heard chickens, a crowing rooster, other large sounding dogs barking, a woodpecker doing what a woodpecker does best and I believe possibly a peacock off in the distance.

55Unfortunately, we got rained out when it began thundering and didn’t get to stay for our whole visit, but we will absolutely be back. The owners offered to compensate us for the lost time, which they were under no obligation to do. It was just a very kind offer. The welcome area is so sweet, and there is absolutely nothing forgotten. It is so well-stocked—I’d brought a few toys for him, and didn’t need them at all! This is the most wonderful spot we’ve visited, and they clearly care about dogs. Sarah G.

55This was the nicest experience we have ever had at a Sniffspot. The host was extremely kind and more than accommodating, and Wallace had a wonderful time—he had a pup cup, ran around chasing tennis balls, and had his very first experience in a pool! We will absolutely be back. Thanks so much to Cathy for your generosity and kindness! ♥️Sarah G.

55Sweetwater Court Private Dog Playground and Gardens was, once again, an awesome experience for me and my four pups!!! Cathy is the most wonderful host and has thought of everything to help a visit to her park be so much fun and tons of exercise for pups and their people.

Cathy is an excellent cook who loves to cook for folks who would like to add dinner to their experience. Go visit this wonderful place!!! I promise you will love it as much as my pups and I do😊.

FAQ about our Germanton 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.
