55Had an amazing time at Almaden acres this morning! Such a huge piece of property, with lots of different terrains for dogs to explore. Great amenities and such peace of mind to be able to let my four-legged kids run free and know that everything is securely fenced. Will definitely book here again!Judi M.

55Oh my gosh! We LOVED it!! It rained earlier in the morning and a little while we were there. Honestly, the rain just made it more fun for the pups!! Directions to get there were fabulous. Signs are visible and helpful. There are water buckets for pups, poop bags and trash can. It was such a great time to let my pup work on his off leash recalls with myself and trainer. As well as romp and play. Absolutely loved it! We will definitely be back!! Jeanine S.

55Our experience at Hillside Meadow was absolutely wonderful! It offered a serene escape for me and my reactive dogs, providing a safe and secluded area for them to play and explore. The amenities provided, such as waste disposal stations and fresh water sources, were convenient and well-maintained, adding to the overall enjoyment of our visit. Hillside Meadow exceeded my expectations, providing a peaceful retreat that we all thoroughly enjoyed. I highly recommend it!!Nayeli P.

55This is the 3rd time we have visited this spot. My Lola always has a blast and sleeps most of the day when we get home. Huge grass lot, fully fenced, and buckets of water with access to a hose if needed.
I will be hosting Lola's 3rd bday party here. So much room for her Mama and siblings to run and play.
Plan on making this "our spot" and come regularly. Amanda B.

55What a great place! Brought my 2 high energy German Shorthaired Pointers to Hillside Meadow. They were ecstatically happy. The rain brought out lots of new grass full of things for them to sniff out. There's a hill for them to really work their legs and lungs. My 1 y.o. didn't stop running for almost the full hour. Both dogs were happily worn out and slept all the way home. We'll definitely be coming back Maddy H.

55Khaleesi and I love this spot! We found it to be fully secure, with lots of room to run and explore. Lots of fresh water and strategically places (clean!) chairs for resting were much appreciated; and the views are gorgeous. Kristie is very pleasant, informative, and customer satisfaction is high on her priority list. We’ll be back!Mona C.

55This is a really nice quiet spot. They provide a large area with fresh water, a ball, a chair and poop removal materials. Host gave clear directions on how to access the spot and explained she was happy to help should anything arise.
This was our first time using Sniffspot and it was a really good experience. Our little puppers was worn out from sniffing after 30 mins! Haha. Rachel M.

55This place is surrounded by lush green mountains. It is peaceful and quiet and my babies had the time of their life here. Kristie, the host, was very friendly and thorough in explaining where to park and how to enter. Her spot is also very well marked with signs. We live far from this spot but will for sure be back!Elena C.

55Super relaxing place to wander around and let my dog sniff and eat grass. Good distance if you play fetch. Might want to bring a towel to dry the chairs on a damp day. Wonderful experience. Thanks!Sybl A.

FAQ about our Ben Lomond dog fields
Are dog fields safe?
If you are looking for an adventure, but also looking for safety, Sniffspot dog fields are a great option. While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, distracted dog owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private space for just you and doggy friends you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). Especially for training, privacy is ideal. Contrary to public dog parks, all Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog for off leash exercise or outdoor training. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars, while public dog parks often do not even have verified reviews. All payment is done securely online by credit card in a few simple clicks.
How can I find dog fields in Ben Lomond?
There are 9 dog fields in the Ben Lomond area. The most popular dog field is Hillside meadow. You can browse all of our dog fields here.
How do I know if a dog field works for my dog?
All park rental information is available online. Start by filtering parks by fencing, size and distractions, to find a private spot that works for your dog. If your dog has poor recall, you can visit one of our secure fields. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog fields where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can review the details of the listing to make sure it works as your desired activity space, for example, safe dog exercise, dog training, a stress-free adventure with your furry friend or even a puppy event. You can even check the park amenities chart for amenities such as indoor training facilities, agility field, synthetic turf, exercise balls or field parking availability in advance. If inclement weather is an issue or poor field conditions, you can reschedule your visit up to 2 hours in advance.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog field?
We require that all four-legged friends have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Make sure to check host rules before visiting to ensure, for instance, that you are following allowable sports activities rules and any special events rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot field at the same time as me?
No. Facility rentals are for private play time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the area during visits, so this is perfect for a private adventure for you and your doggie friends, and perhaps a human friend. Hosts understand that many guests have dogs in training and are nervous owners. So when you book a Sniffspot dog field you have the entire private spot to yourself. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between time slots so you will not run into other guest dogs or a previous person when coming or leaving in the field parking area. Some hosts may have multiple fields, but there is always a buffer between fields.
How much do Sniffspot fields cost?
Dog fields in the Ben Lomond area range from $15.0 and $15.0. The least expensive dog field is Hillside meadow. The most expensive dog field is Hillside meadow. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
