St. Stephen's in-the-Field Episcopal Church's Fully Fenced Yard In San Jose

Fully Fenced
0.02 acres

Hello! We’re just getting started hosting with Sniffspot and are excited to host you! Please let us know what we can do to improve the space. A past guest let us know we needed better signage, so we got a bright blue sign printed and hung it on the fenced area. Another guest mistook the community garden (incompletely fenced) for the play area (completely fenced). If you see vegetables, the area is not completely fenced! You're welcome to explore, just be respectful of the gardeners and plants please. The avocado tree overhanging the play area is dropping fruit right now, so if your dog likes to eat random stuff on the ground please be careful! The play area is tucked between St Stephen’s in-the-Field Episcopal Church and the left hand fence (turn from Santa Teresa Blvd onto Avenida España, then take the first right and head to the back). There are two churches on the lot, ours is at the back, with ample off street parking and lots of gardens to explore, in addition to the enclosed play space. Feel free to message with any questions!

Winter Creek Dog Park In San Jose

Fully Fenced

Last mowing day: June 3, 2026 SUMMER: Recommend AM visits before 10am or evening after 5pm. Our spot is full sun with very limited shade. We are trying to eliminate the foxtails but we have a large property and cannot guarantee we get all of them. We are pesticide-free so all removal is done by hand/tractor. **Horses visible in adjacent property occasionally Additionally, guests can enjoy the adjacent hillside which is partially-fenced. You are welcome to enjoy this off-leash or, if you're more comfortable, take a little stroll through the grass. NOTE: There may be foxtails and ticks in this area.

Partially Fenced
2 acres

This is a private, undeveloped, forested spot. If you are interested in this spot, you and your dog should be up for a mini adventure. This spot is not a manicured, backyard park. It is wild and beautiful, and a rare find in this area. THERE IS NO TRASH SERVICE AT THIS FOREST LOCATION. PACK EVERYTHING OUT WITH YOU, INCLUDING DOG POOP BAGGIES. The trail starts at the west (downhill) end of the parking spot, and winds downhill to the creek (there are a couple of switchbacks). The trail from the parking area to the creek is less than 5 minutes long. At the bottom of the trail, is a deck. Beyond the deck is a year-round creek with a swimming hole. There are fish, frogs, newts, and crawdads. All wildlife is protected, so please don't catch or remove them. You may walk up and down along the creek exploring, as long as you turn around before the bend that is downstream. The trail that leads downhill to the creek is intermediate, not for beginners or flip-flops. There should be no poison oak or ticks on the trail, but if you venture off the trail, you may encounter poison oak or ticks. There are blackberry bushes to the sides of the trail that resemble poison oak. There should be no foxtails. You may see wild animals. As a wild spot, you may encounter typical hazards that are present in most local forest trails, such as wildlife, water, and trip-and-fall hazards. This is a private spot, and there should be no other people or dogs during your booking. If you see someone during your booking, please let us know as soon as possible, so that we can take steps to prevent them from trespassing again. There is no lighting at this spot, so if you book before sunrise or after sunset, please bring a headlamp or flashlight. Maximum 2 people per dog. There is no trash collection service at this location, so please pack out any trash. Thank you!

55Pros: This spot was easy to find and had so many thoughtful features — fresh, clean water, poop bags, a few toys to share, and plenty of shaded areas. The open space is HUGE, which gave my dogs lots of room to run free and safely burn energy. Overall, it felt welcoming and well set up for dogs and their owners. Cons (important to know before visiting): As noted by the host, there are some holes in the ground, and a few are fairly deep. For dogs that run fast or jump, it could lead to injury if they land wrong — so it’s something to keep an eye on. The host was very transparent about this in the listing, so reading the description carefully is key. Another issue — and this is more about visitors than the property — was that several guests did not pick up after their dogs, despite bags being provided. It’s disappointing and disrespectful to the space and to others using it. Overall: Even with those concerns, I still rate this place 5 out of 5. It’s a rare and wonderful shared area where dogs can explore, play, and just be dogs. As long as everyone is respectful and follows the rules, it’s an amazing place for the community to enjoy.

We celebrated my dogs birthday there with his friends, it was a hot day and they had 2 kiddie pools there and the dogs loved cooling themselves off in them, and plenty of fresh water from their hose. All in all, a fantastic time! Thank you so much for making our child’s birthday special

Everything you need is provided - toys, poop bags, fresh water, shade and bench for people, etc. Most important for my reactive dog, his own private park with secure, high fences which allows him to be off-leash and free to roam, sniff and play to his heart’s content!

Frequently asked questions about Aptos dog parks

Why are private dog parks better than public ones in Aptos?

Private dog parks in Aptos eliminate the major risks of public facilities: unpredictable dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission, and chaotic environments that can overwhelm puppies, seniors, small dogs, or reactive pets. Sniffspot's 199 private Aptos locations offer complete privacy, professionally maintained spaces, and flexible scheduling. Whether you have a nervous puppy or a dog-selective adult, private bookings give you control and peace of mind.

How are Aptos Sniffspot locations different from public dog parks?

Aptos Sniffspots offer: (1) Complete privacy with no other dogs during your booking, (2) Controlled environments without aggressive dogs or chaos, (3) Flexible scheduling based on availability, not rigid park hours, (4) Safety for dogs of all temperaments and ages, (5) Vetted and reviewed locations—93% of visits get 5-star reviews. You get all the benefits of off-leash exercise in Aptos without public dog park risks.

Can reactive dogs safely use Aptos dog parks?

Yes, and this is exactly what Sniffspot was designed for! Aptos has 199 private locations where reactive dogs can exercise off-leash without encountering other animals. Since bookings are completely private with 30-minute buffers between visitors, your reactive dog won't face the triggers that make public dog parks impossible. Many Aptos owners of reactive dogs rely on Sniffspot as their only safe exercise option.

What amenities help anxious or reactive dogs in Aptos?

Look for Aptos locations with "fewer dogs seen/heard" to minimize triggers for reactive dogs. Secure fencing prevents escapes during stress. Quiet, spacious properties reduce anxiety. Some Aptos hosts specifically cater to nervous or reactive dogs with extra privacy features. Read reviews to find hosts who understand fearful or reactive dog needs.

How clean are Aptos dog parks?

Unlike public dog parks where cleanliness varies wildly, Sniffspot hosts in Aptos maintain their own spaces and take pride in providing clean environments. All guests must have vaccinated dogs (or titers) to prevent disease transmission. Many Aptos hosts provide poop bags and trash cans. Reviews highlight cleanliness, so you can choose well-maintained locations.

Can I visit Aptos dog parks with multiple dogs?

Yes! Most Aptos Sniffspots welcome multiple dogs from the same household. Some hosts set limits (like 2-3 dogs maximum), which will be noted on the listing. If you have several dogs—especially if some are reactive toward other dogs—Sniffspot's private bookings let them play together safely without outside interference.

Are Aptos dog parks good for senior dogs?

Yes! Aptos Sniffspot locations are excellent for senior dogs who need gentle exercise without the stress of public dog parks. Older dogs can explore at their own pace, rest when needed, and avoid being knocked over by rambunctious puppies or large dogs. Look for Aptos spots with flat terrain, shaded areas, and smaller sizes if your senior has limited mobility.

How do I find dog parks in Aptos for small dogs?

Filter Aptos's 199 locations by "small dog friendly" to find spaces specifically suited for toy breeds and small dogs. These tend to be more intimate, with secure fencing that prevents squeezing through gaps. Some Aptos hosts have separate small dog areas or cater specifically to petite pups who might get overwhelmed at large public dog parks.
