5/5! This yard is SO NICE!!!!! It’s bigger than it looks in the pictures. It is clean and well-kept and the fence is secure. There are big shady trees and a nice patio with a table, chairs, and umbrella (and even a cooler with drinks!!!) for humans. For the dogs, there were poop bags, toys, treats, a bed, kiddie pool, and a large bowl of water. Disco had a blast running the length of the yard and chasing all the toys. He will sleep well today! The neighbors have dogs that were out when we got there but they put them away. The spot owner was very communicative and friendly and showed us how to get in the gate.

Huge yard, lots of room to play & run! Neighbor was out when I arrived & said they’d keep their dogs in while my dog was there. Wow, that was super nice! Sniffspot had a little kiddie pool & between that & the huge yard we were all set! Nice amenities & lovely seating area on patio. We really enjoyed it! Thank you.

This was a new spot, but the owner was very welcoming, responsive to feedback, and shared a lot of future plans to make this place a great destination for dogs. Zelda and I had an awesome time playing here, and the owner was able to come out and meet Zelda at my request and became quick friends with a dog that's reactive and protective around strangers. We will definitely be coming back!

My dogs had a BLAST!!! We will be back! HUGE space - hilly, tons to explore. One of our dogs is reactive and despite neighbor dogs being out - he couldn’t see them b/c that part of yard has high privacy wood fence. He just bark twice, With both non- sequential barking episodes my dog barked along fence and he moved away the first time and second time with small encouragement he moved away following/chasing myself, my husband and our non-reactive dog. Don’t let neighbor dogs discourage you from trying the spot - the area is huge and this part of space where my dog barked is in front of the property near front of house. The host has covered seating area for human ‘sniff spotters’ which had waste disposal, bags available, water and water bowls for dogs and water for humans. This is a wonderful spot!

A fantastic spot - massive fenced yard with a small pond, a very thoughtful and generous set up for human and dogs (water, chairs, bowls, paper towels, poop bags, etc.), and tons of space to explore and run. We will definitely be back and adding this spot into our regular rotation!

FAQ About West Chicago 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.
