55This a great spot! Fully fenced in and a lot to do, and not just for the dogs. We will definitely be coming back. If your dogs aren’t friendly with other dogs I would just make sure to mention it since there is a dog who lives on the property. But we had no issues with that the dog didn’t even come up to us and kept to herself. But I would keep that in mind. But it’s a fantastic spot! Highly recommend Sarina C.

Our dog loved this place so much to do and so much land to run around. The host was very nice I loved that there was a sink to wash hands and fill his water bowl. Raelissa T.

55Great spot, well maintained & lots to sniff and explore. Pond for swimming if your dog is into that. Friendly host. Calm friendly senior dog on the way in the driveway (pull around to the left of the house through the gate for parking). Did not see her in the fenced pond area, but it wouldn't have been a problem for my dog; more likely she would have annoyed the resident dog trying to play! We'll be back. Michele S.

55Brought our three dogs out for a run and they had a blast! Two of our dogs are reactive and it was a very safe space for them to have some fun and freedom. Property is beautiful and well kept. Will definitely be coming again! Taber B.

55This was my first time using Sniffspot, and we will definitely come back! There is ample space, it’s well-fenced, and well-maintained. The foxtails are even few and far between, if such things are a concern for your dog. My dog does not like water, but even she enjoyed the smells of the pond and the wildlife it attracted.Samantha C.

55This was the perfect spot to bring the dogs ! All fenced in with a pond so if your dog likes to swim, remember those towels:) I will be recommending this spot to all of my friends who have dogs but don’t want the hassle of a dog park. Adrianna R.

55My doggos had such an amazing time here! Perfect amount of shade and walking trails. The host was very friendly and guided us to the correct parking spot (remember to drive all the way back until you see the sign). I would suggest taking older leashes/harnesses, as they’ll need a good wash after some play time in the pond and dirt. Also, don’t forget your baggies for dog waste. Overall, I would highly recommend! Marisa T.

FAQ about our Descanso dog water parks
Are dog water parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot 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. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines. Some great ways to stay safe around water with your dog include learning canine CPR and keep an eye on your dog at all times to ensure they are not distressed.

How do I know if a dog water park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog.

Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to see what kind of water features are offered to make sure it works for your dog. If your dog is not a strong swimmer, then perhaps choose a dog water park with tamer water features rather than a river or beach, for instance. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
