55Large space for the dogs to run, secure fence and huge bonus that there is a ton of shade! Easy to find with GPS and host gave great directions for where to park and how to enter the yard. My dogs had a great time, we’ll definitely book again! Jessie C.

55Appreciated that I could pull my car completely into the fenced pasture and shut the gate before letting my big dogs out. There are lots of natural areas to explore like branches and vegetation. It's wooded and shady in parts which is very nice. Dogs liked that. On second visit, one of my dogs was too distracted by the cows next door. My other dog didn't particularly care. We enjoyed this spot. Thank you for sharing it.Katcha N.

55First time visiting, loved it! This place is absolutely huuuuge- more room than we knew what to do with. The fence is secure the whole way around, and the area was clean. Super stimulating environment-- my dog sniffed for 20 straight minutes! We also made friends with some goats, chased a ball, and did some training. This is a really, really lovely spot. We'll be regulars! Samantha L.

55This property is the perfect size to let your dog get their zoomies out! The scenery is beautiful and there are even some cows nearby! My dog was so intrigued by them and wanted to go play with what I assume she thought were giant dogs! Definitely plan on booking again! The best part is being able to drive in to the gated area so you can just open your door and let them run free! Dana B.

55I wen't to this location from 5:30-6:30 and was speechless. The host texts you immediately after booking letting you know how to arrive. They responded immediately to any questions, and made me feel welcomed. It was dark and there are no lights but that made it 10x more fun for my puppy. We played hide and seek, I did not have a worry in the world the fence is in great condition and a great height. (I have a german shepherd huskey, she jumps every fence but didn't even attempt this one.) A bell went off at 6:00 and it was the most homey feeling. There than was about 5 minutes of bell's chiming and I couldn't explain how amazing it was. 10/10 Would recommend this location. Jordan R.

FAQ about our Mount Joy 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.
