Top public and private dog water parks and swimming pools in Cullowhee, North Carolina

Pondside Paws Park

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.

David's 66 Acre Unfenced Private Dog Park In Brevard

My property has multiple trails, 2 small fields, streams, a large pond for swimming, and a dog wash station! Lots of space to play. Truly a dog paradise! My property is located on a long, gravel driveway (named by me as Maple Gap Rd) off Frozen Creek Road and just a short distance from the back entrance of Gorges State Park. Once turning onto Frozen Creek Road it’s about 1.3 miles on your right. You’ll see a small green sign saying Maple Gap Road and a Sniffspot sign. Parking is available beside the garage (looks like a house). Ok to park behind my silver truck that stays there. You’ll see a Sniffspot ‘park here’ sign, a dog waste station with bags, and a brown bench with tennis balls, water bowls, and bug spray in a storage bin under the seat. Access to the two small fields and stream is across the gravel driveway. My two homes on the property are vacation rentals by owner. If you see guests they may/may not have dogs. Make sure to introduce yourself as a Sniffspot customer. Also, please call or text owner to give advance notice, along with your names and dogs. Thank you! 678-640-0359

#3 Fun field for a furry frenzy 3- Field of Dreams in Fletcher

1/2/26- New entrance! Just down the fence line across from the gazebo! Have you ever wanted to run your dog on three football sized flat fields? This is your chance. Located behind UPM Raflatac in the cane creek industrial park this huge spot is the third one we have built. It’s perfect for all ages of dogs and their humans because of the terrain! If you are up for an adventure, we have cut in a small trail to access Cane Creek. It is part of the same property but is NOT fenced in any way. If your pup enjoys off or on leash hikes, then feel free. The trail is outside the fencing look for the silver gate across from the Gazbo. It is an out and back path with two small hills about a 3-5min walk in the woods. A picnic table, gazebo with swing, and hammock are located here for lots of seating and shelter. Some toys are provided. I think a Remote Control car or a drone, a mountain bike might be really fun to bring or even a Remote Control plane. This spot is actually part of the old Fletcher airport. No Digging! PLEASE! All I want in life is to help people to have balanced dogs in their lives! Enjoy!

Rebecca's Private Dog Park In Weaverville

Not your average sniffspot. I grew up in the house across the street. It was purchased as a parcel and when my folks sold it they kept this land on Reems Creek. There are no structures on this land and therefore the county doesn't issue it a street number address. The driveway is directly across 14 Banks Town Rd. Hurricane Helene hit us hard, but the land has been cleared and we gained some "beach" along the creek. Please note that there is no fencing. Its a large tract of land and if your dog isnt one to run off, you should have plenty of space to run and play! Some areas have lush grass and foliage, the center of the property, where you can drive and park, the grass hasn't grown back in. The creek is the property line, feel free to get in the water, there may be pockets towards the right(bridge side) where the water is deeper, but i havent found any spot more than 4' deep. The center and left side is shallow water. Feel free to walk around and look for cool rocks on the beach, but please dont disrupt or take any larger stones in the creek bed as they provide a habitat for various salamander and aquatic life. This is family land that im happy to share with other ani.al lovers! Please pick up pet waste in areas that youd expect people to be walking on regularly, but no worried about any poops outside of the main center area where you can easily drive. We've made so many nice memories on this land and I hope you enjoy it too. I try to be responsive. If you dont enjoy your visit, please let me know and I'll make it right. The main road is well traveled, but Banks Town Road has very little traffic and everyone seems to abide by the speed limit. Lake Louise is across the main road, unfortunately they dont allow dogs, but if you feel like following the creek youll come to the water wheel, and i believe dogs are allowed there if you feel like venturing over. A sign at the driveway is coming, but in the meantime, you see a lovely home with a small marker in front "14 Banks Town Rd.", driveway is directly across from it and takes you down to the property and creek.

the Meadow Ranch Hay Field

5+ acres of rolling hay fields! Depending on the time of year the grass may be tall or cut. Access to small creek along the field. The field is not fenced but is almost completely surrounded by woods! Beautiful, fun place to roam and let the pups run!
