55This Sniffspot was exactly as advertised. Closer to the visit, the host sent additional information regarding parking and trails on the property. The water hose and rinse spot were easily accessible. This is an excellent spot for a leisurely walk on a well-groomed trail in a mature forest. Great for reactive dogs and practicing recall. Highly recommended.Wendy M.

55Our first Sniffspot adventure was pure magic! We knew the location looked amazing in pictures, and the reality blew us away. Pristine grounds embraced by a beautiful natural setting – we were in awe.
Best of all, our dog Hubbell, not known for swimming, transformed into a water-loving superstar, diving into the lake with glee. It was delightful watching him frolic in and out of the water. We also enjoyed exploring the lake's surroundings on a pleasant little hike.
Today's Sniffspot experience exceeded all expectations. Already planning our next visit, this hidden gem has won our hearts.

55A beautiful property hidden away from any busy roads and the noises of the city! Our dog loved to run and explore the trails around the lake. Great communication from the property host, who provided us with clear instructions and a map of the trails. There was even a wash station to wash off our pup’s muddy paws! It was a perfect day out! We look forward to visiting again soon :)Heather C.

55I needed to take my reactive standard poodle somewhere that he could explore and sniff off leash, without fear of another dog coming around the corner at us. We just went for half an hour to check it out and I definitely should have booked an hour. It's a large property and he loved it. We'll be back for more exercise and exploring while we work on his reactivity for the next few months.Karen B.

55SO amazing!!! I can’t stop gushing to everyone I know about Jeannette and her property. She is the perfect host -welcoming and relaxed - and her park truly feels like paradise. It’s safe, quiet and just totally bliss-inducing. Among my favourite features: the trails to explore, the two docks, the easy water access for dogs, the Muskoka/Adirondack chairs, and the dog wash station. My dog loved it and us humans had a wonderful time, too. Will certainly be returning! Lucy M.

FAQ about our Lowbanks 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. With Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 94% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Lowbanks area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 225 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 19 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
