55Lovely shady yard. Our dog spent the whole time running, had a great time. The fence was pretty secure - my dog is a top notch escape artist and there were only one or two places I had to watch her more carefully. She was also very interested in some kind of hutch the next door neighbors were building but I didn't see any animals.Mal G.

55This place is fantastic! No complaints whatsoever. It has a hose, sprinkler, toys, secure fence, & shaded areas ( even couches for the humans to sit down), tons of land for your pup to run around. Scooby loved every second of it. Thank you to the host for putting up your place for doggies to enjoy. We will be back! Olga E.

55This private dog park is phenomenal ! Our 3 dogs had a great time running loose. Everything is clean, sunny, shady and had quite a few dog toys to play with. Also a sprinkler if the dogs got too hot. It was a great hour with them there. Thank you for giving us such an alternative. And the price is right too !

My Sophie just loved the place and ran and ran to her heart’s content. She just didn’t want to stop nor leave.
The area was clean and easy to get to and out of, everything promised was there and nothing missed.

55We loved this place so much. The drive was long, but it was so worth it. I like the fact that the road can’t really be seen from the yard. My dog is a bit cat reactive. If people walk by the sidewalk, the dog can’t easily see them. It’s awesome for dogs who struggle with other dogs, people, cars… also, I loved the fact that there’s so much shade. Awesome for dogs who struggle with open fields. Bring bug spray, but it wasn’t so bad… they have this small stream in the back. Also, I loved the rope they have hanging, Pei loved it so much. This place is Pei approved.

55Awesome first visit here and using the app. The yard was as advertised and what a treat to see my dog running around freely. The yard is clean, open and yes Shady. The host was kind enough and left out the sprinkler and we turned it on a few times in the hour long visit. I did walk the perimeter with Jax as it was recommended to check the area out. I will definitely make this a weekly visit to Shady Acres. Jax was chill the rest of the day after that visit. Great experience.Joseph D.

FAQ About Lakehurst 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?
