55We had a very nice visit to this front yard sniff spot—it had secure fencing, was free of poo from previous visitors, and had rocking chairs! Bring bug spray and water though, we were ill-prepared. But we will be back and would recommend.

4-Acre Unfenced Mountain Dog Oasis with Creek & Covered Shelter

Unfenced
4 acres

Welcome to Our 4-Acre Mountain Dog Oasis! Give your pup a chance to run, splash, sniff, and explore on four private acres in beautiful Arden, North Carolina. The highlight of the property is our fresh, flowing creek—perfect for water-loving dogs who enjoy splashing, wading, and cooling off. There's also plenty of open space for running, fetching, exploring, and working on recall. While your dog has an adventure, you can relax under our covered picnic shelter with comfortable seating and enjoy the peaceful mountain setting. 🐾 What You'll Love 🌊 Fresh Flowing Creek A natural creek gives water-loving pups a place to splash, play, and cool off. 🌳 4 Private Acres Plenty of room for zoomies, fetch, sniffing, exploring, and outdoor adventures. ⛱️ Covered Picnic Shelter Take a seat in the shade and relax while your pup plays. 🥏 Great for Recall & Long-Line Training The open space makes this a wonderful setting for practicing recall, whistle training, long-line work, and boundaries. 🌿 A Peaceful Mountain Setting Enjoy some time away from crowded dog parks in a natural Western North Carolina environment. Good to Know Before You Visit Our property is not fenced, so dogs should have reliable recall or remain on a long lead.

Bring your dog's favorite ball, frisbee, or water toy—and get ready for some happy, tired pups!

Hidden River Private Dog Park in Swannanoa, NC

Fully Fenced
0.17 acres

We are back in action after the flood and the Swannanoa Valley where we are located is as beautiful as ever. I'm happy for our four legged friends to enjoy again our large, flat grassy fenced in area for unleashed dogs on a 20 acre farm and wedding venue (Hidden River Events) next to the Swannanoa River. Parking is just outside the fence on the grass. There is a large deck with seating for relaxing while your pup(s) play. If it has rained within 24-48 hours of your visit, the spot may be muddy (even though it is a grass pasture) so it is good to bring towels for your pup. The fenced area has no trees so, there is an umbrella provided. If you use it, make sure to close it before you depart. This is a large farm and the distance from the sniff spot to the river is a good ways. You are welcome to walk your dog on a leash to the river if you don't see any other dogs on the property or an event going on. In 2026, we are not having a lot of weddings un late August through mid-November, so you should be good to enjoy the river. If you have questions about where to walk to go to the river or if it's ok to enjoy more than the sniffspot itself, please text me at 828-458-5740. Horses and goats reside in their own fully contained pastures on the property away from the Sniff Spot. We have donkeys now as well. Donkeys are not like horses. Donkeys have the fight reflex, so do not allow your animals to get in the fenced in area with the donkeys. A donkey can kill a dog, easily. There is a water bucket on site to refill a water bowl if the bowl is empty when you arrive. There is water in the barn. We try to keep it filled, but sometimes miss it. Feel free to leash your dog and take him/her down to the river to play while you are on your visit.

Pondside Paws Park

Fully Fenced
0.5 acres

Welcome to Pondside Paws Park, located in a quiet valley 15 minutes outside of downtown Asheville NC. Here you will find a peaceful, fully fenced in half acre lot with a pond for your pups to swim, romp, sniff, play and have a great time. For those more adventurous dogs, there's even a dock for jumping into the pond! There are opportunities for enjoying the pond regardless of your dog's age or exercise ability, as there is a shallow area with tall grass for wading and splashing, and a deeper area for swimming. The slope of the land is gentle for those older dogs as well- this spot is suitable for dogs of all ages and abilities. For the humans, we have several seating options including a picnic table and 4 chairs under a shade sail. Bug spray, sunscreen, fresh drinking water for the dogs and a tote full of toys is also provided in the weatherproof storage shed next to the seating area. Waste bags are available if needed, although we appreciate people bringing their own, and there is a waste container located at the entrance, next to the kiddie pool that is used to rinse off muddy paws. It's recommended that you bring a towel to dry them off before getting back into your car. We hope you enjoy the spot and leave it as you found it for others to enjoy as well.

✨ Welcome to Our Indoor SniffSpot! ✨ After losing our original training center to the hurricane, we were incredibly fortunate to rebuild — and we’re so excited to now share this space with the community as an indoor SniffSpot when it isn’t being used for our training services. This space was created with love, resilience, and dogs in mind, and we can’t wait for you and your pup to enjoy it! Because this is a brand-new offering, we’re sure there will be a few kinks to work out along the way, and we truly appreciate your patience as we learn and grow. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any feedback, ideas, or special requests — we want this to be a great experience for everyone. 🐶 A few quick housekeeping reminders: • Please clean up after your dog. Accidents happen — no worries! Just use the provided poop bags, mop, rags, and spray to clean up. • A poop trash can and scoop are located in the dog run for your convenience. • If you use the water bowls, please empty them in the sink at the end of your reservation. • Please return the space to the way you found it, including putting any toys or equipment back in their designated spots. 📹 Security Reminder: For the safety of our guests, dogs, and facility, this space is monitored by security cameras.
