55We had a wonderful time and a beautiful morning at this spot. There is a mowed path around much of the big field and the path along the river which was nice. It is great to be able to take the dogs somewhere we are guaranteed there will not be other dogs present. yay!Leah K.

55We had a lovely day exchanging the city noises for the quiet of Sauvie’s Island! Room for our dog to roam free without fears of running into other dogs. This is just what we needed! Hosts are kind and friendly. A good trip!Carrie K.

55This Sniff Spot is a pupper's paradise! Jessica and Curtis are so thoughtful and accomodating. They have really done a lot to create a safe and fun place for dogs and their owners. Their land is beautiful and diversified, from riverfront access to trails spread throughout their field. And let's not forget that it is located along a beautiful stretch of Suavie Island, located about a half hour's drive outside of the city. Oatz and I cant wait to come back and play together!Dillon F.

55My dog loves coming to the farm. I'm so grateful to the hosts for continuing to share their space even during growing season. They keep paths mowed for dogs and people to walk while still running their farm.Cassie R.

55This is at top of Ollie’s (my doggie client) list of favorite Sniffspot locations. He loves exploring all the sights and smells along the water and on the farmland. Stunning views of Mt. Hood and Mt. St. Helen’s. Love the picnic table in the shade for water breaks and relaxation.

55This is a wonderful spot. Our two labs had a wonderful time. The river access is on the other side of a road, down a hill, so our dogs didn’t think of running away from the water. They loved running in the fields too. We will be back because we have more to explore! The owner is super nice and easy to work with. Vanessa W.

55We had a miscommunication with the host so didn't actually get to meet them or get instructions on where to go, but she reached out afterwards to make it up to us so I'm hopeful we can go back and actually enjoy it.Leana M.

55Really nice open area for our two pups. They had a lot of fun and especially loved playing in the river!! The hosts are very accommodating and came to show us around the property when we arrived. Highly recommend. The only thing I would add to make it better would be a garbage can.

55Amazing spot! Jess is so friendly. One of my dogs is reactive to strangers and we did not encounter any other humans. The river walk is lovely, though yes as others have said the road is close by so a strong recall is important (but this is true for any off leash environment). Exploring the farm land was the highlight for us, our pups loved running through the hay and watching the cows through the fence. We’ll be back for sure! Clara R.

55We've been loving our evening walks at this spot. As the season progresses it's been so nice to have a place to decompress at the end of a hot day. There's a really nice walking path that traces the edge of the fields, and there's plenty of room to roam. Looking forward to more evenings at this spot over the summer! Patrick B.

55This Sniff spot is great! Jessica is a very gracious host- she came out during the heat and greeted us and gave us the lay of the land. Ample grassy fields for the dogs, although it was so hot we mostly just stayed close to the river. The main river access is shaded at mid-day and there's a shoreline with shallow water and grasses you can walk along. We're still introducing water as a good thing to our water reluctant husky, but he enjoyed himself and it kept him cool.Tammy S.

55This was just what we were looking for! It’s 115° today and with no AC at home we needed a cool down for the dog! The host met us at the parking spot and gave directions to the river swimming area nearby and was very helpful. We didn’t encounter any other animals, which was good since the dog gets nervous around other dogs.
There is a shady spot with seating area and a tree swing by the swimming area. It is very private. The water is usually pretty cold but felt great on a hot day. Gingi T.

55was wonderful to be back after a longer absence due to surgery, our dog seemed to remember exactly where the river was and pulled us there. jessica is a fabulous host, so responsive and kind. As a previous review mentioned, it’s tick season and difficult to avoid in most of this part of Oregon - just a case of being vigilant Stephanie D.

FAQ about our Brush Prairie dog hiking trails
Are dog hiking trails safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than a city or county park. With a Sniffspot off-leash area 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. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. Our hiking trails tend to be outside the city, which lends to more privacy, but it is also important to follow typical hiking safety precautions, such as potentially having trail maps.
How can I find dog hiking trails in Brush Prairie?
How do I know if a dog hiking trail works for my dog?
Sniffspot provides the tools to find the ideal spot. Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing 6 feet tall and distractions, to find a dog park with trails that works for your dog. You can also filter by size if you are looking for a certain acre park, an expansive off-leash dog park. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog hiking trails. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog hiking trails where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Since you are looking for trails, make sure to check photos to see if it the spot has flat trails or gnarly trails. You can also browse by specific amenities, if you are looking for a view or a beach, for instance, or other activities or fun features. You can check whether the spot has off or on street parking, the regular park hours, whether it has paved trails or a modern restroom.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog hiking trail?
In order to hike the trails, we require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not permit dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot hiking trail at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
