55This is my first sniff spot ever and I took the 36 minute drive to get here instead of going with a local one because it looked that good! And it did not disappoint. My 2 year old high energy pitbull LOVES fetch more than anything in the world. My backyard is big, but not enough for her to run as fast as she can without having to pump the brakes. I will be back every week, I am so so happy! Thank you!!!!Kristen F.

55Nice quiet spot, the location is great for us because it's right around the corner from where we live. The grass was a damp still when we visited because we went before the sun had a chance to dry it out, so we didn't stay long this time. But we will definitely be back! Barry J.

55We had the best time! My two cattle dogs absolutely adored the wide open space and loads of toys. Will definitely come back! The neighbors dog did approach the fence while we were there, it was relatively small and no issues came from it but good to know!Nicole S.

55Awesome spot. Plenty of room for dogs to run full speed and really get a good exercise. Owner came and introduced himself super nice guy. Even brought us some extra water for the pups when we ran out if what we brought. Super secure, was never once worried about dogs getting loose. Very clean for a dog park. Did see a couple piles that some owners hadn't picked up but nothing at fault of the host. He even provides poop bags ok sight. BRING plenty of water! 10/10 will definitely be back. Kristen L.

FAQ about our Wake Forest 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.
