55This was the first sniff spot we booked, and were very nervous and didn’t know what to expect. The place is located in Hillsboro, but it’s very secluded. Barbara have us a lot of details about how to find a way to the field and what rules to follow, it was very helpful! The field was huge and covered in grass, there were some holes in the ground from rodents and golphers, but my dog didn’t seem to notice. It also wasn’t muddy to my surprise. My dog absolutely loved running around catching frisbees. It’s nice to have this opportunity to see my dog happy, thanky for letting us use your property!Irina F.

55Our puppy Addie loved this spot! She’s so curious and was happy to have a beautiful yard to explore. Safe and secure. Quiet neighborhood with easy parking. Nice to have a hose to rinse her off after rolling around in the grass :) Highly recommend!jason y.

55My first Sniffspot and what a wonderful experience! The photos and description are accurate. The large yard is completely fenced in and offers a beautiful safe space for your fur babies to run free. There are also areas that offer shade. The host is also kind and friendly if you get a chance to meet her. Lots of amenities offered, like treats and water. Will happily book again!Jennifer S.

55Hostes was very kind and responsive. Directions were pretty straight forward, except I did not see a paw print near the gate indicating it was the correct location gate (very possible I just missed it). Otherwise, if your dog's love getting muddy and having a lot of new smells to sniff, this spot is for y'all! Wear some boots and you'll be set to enjoy this sweet spot with your pups. The next door neighbors at one point lot out their smaller dog. However, the fence between the two yards is fairly tall and more so a brick wall. The dog was not visible, only audible. Our dogs didn't have an issue, but pointing out for possibly more reactive pups out there. Our dogs had a great time, especially smelling all the suburb smells...definitely a SniffSpot 💖Natalie M.

55Such a perfect place for my puppy to play! I only reserved it a couple hours in advance and the owner was very responsive and accommodating. I was a little worried about gaps in the fence because he’s small but once I got there and looked around it was super safe! Agree with the other comments on the mud but I planned it as a pre-bath activity so he would be tired before and it worked out perfectly. We will definitely be back!! Mary S.

55Nice large space, and as host disclosed, it is definitely muddy this time of year! My city pups didn’t quite know what to do with it, so we didn’t stay our entire hour. But, the host was generous with the toys, water bowl, treats, poop bags, & towel that was left out for our use! Will come back during the summer months for sure. Julie T.

55Had a great visit! Eva was great and very responsive to my questions and so kind. It was wonderful to break up our evening walk and have a space to toss the ball around.
Eva made sure to let me k ow it was very muddy from the rain, so I came prepared and wore my rain boots. I would highly recommend doing the same and bring yourself some towels, your pup will get muddy:) Mandy M.

55A lovely spot! Definitely muddy as others have mentioned, and the gate isn't marked but is pretty easy to find. Really appreciated the towel, treats, and bags available!! A fun place to hang out with the pup. We did see some dogs on the road through the gate, but nothing close and it's definitely a very secure space.Shoshana B.

55The place was very nice and well secured. I was not worried that my small/medium Shiba pup was going to get through the gate at all. It does get very muddy, but that was to be expected. There are some parts that have deeper mud towards the middle of the grass yard. There were toys, treats, and poop bags available. As well as a water bowl and being able to use the hose to spray down your dog before going back to your car. Muna loved it!James T.

FAQ about our Rockaway Beach dog parks
Are dog parks good for dogs?
It is important for dogs to have off leash exercise to sniff and run. But the free and open nature of public dog parks has drawbacks. There could be aggressive dogs, disease transmission and cleanliness issues. For this reason, many dog behaviorists discourage visiting public dog parks and recommend Sniffspot's private dog parks. Sniffspot private dog parks only allow one guest to book at a time and are not open to the public, which solves many of these issues.
Are dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Rockaway Beach area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 18 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 4 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
