Description

** We have enjoyed being your sniff spot host. We are writing to let you know that we are putting a pause on our hosting account. We are doing this while we investigate further liability insurance coverage to protect our guests and ourselves. We have enjoyed this immensely and look forward to resuming our account as hosts as soon as possible.** Welcome to our 50 acre, 5th generation family farm. We are conveniently located about a half hour drive from Portland. We have private wooded trails through an old growth cottonwood forest, river beach and water access (tide dependent), and around 2 miles of trails total for walking and romping. Guests may also use the 5 foot tall, fully fenced, 1/3 acre paddock enclosure next to the guest parking spot. We love it here and we hope you and your dogs do too. Interested in professional pet or family photos? Ask about our photography service add-on or inquire on instagram at @lukewenkerphotography

Trail & Tail "The Meadow" — Flat & Fenced I-5 Access Dog Space in Ridgefield

Fully Fenced
0.25 acres

The Meadow is a wide-open, fully fenced space just over a quarter acre — a generous private dog space just off the I-5 freeway exit. With flat, grassy ground and a dry, well-maintained surface, it's perfect for dogs who need room to run, stretch out, or simply roam at their own pace. Accessed by a peaceful trail from the parking area, the walk to The Meadow sets a calm tone before your dog even sets a paw inside. A bench inside the space means you can sit back, relax, and let your pup do their thing — no hovering required. Whether you have a high-energy dog who needs space to burn off steam, a nervous dog who benefits from a calm open environment, or a senior pup who just wants a quiet grassy stroll, The Meadow delivers. We also have an on leash trail that can be used while on the property. Great for: High-energy dogs needing a run · Reactive or anxious dogs who need space and calm · Senior dogs · Owners who want to relax while their dog roams

Alexander's 80 Acre Unfenced Private Dog Park In North Plains

Unfenced
80 acres

🌲 60 Acres of Pure Adventure — Forest, Creek, Pond & Valley Views Welcome to one of the most expansive and naturally stunning Sniffspot listings you’ll find anywhere. Nestled across 60 pristine acres of lush forestland, this is a place where dogs can truly roam free and reconnect with nature in the most beautiful way. Your pup will have an entire wilderness to explore — winding trails through towering trees, a babbling creek perfect for splashing and wading, a peaceful pond for the water lovers, and sweeping views of the valley that will take your breath away (and probably your dog’s too, once they catch all those amazing scents on the breeze). Whether your dog is a bold explorer, a water fanatic, or simply loves to sprint through open space with nothing holding them back, this property has something special waiting for them. What to expect: ∙ 🌳 60 acres of pristine forest ∙ 💧 Natural creek & small pond access ∙ 🏔️ Stunning valley overlook ∙ 🐾 Ideal for dogs of all sizes and energy levels A note from us: We are brand new to Sniffspot and so excited to share this magical place with you and your furry family members! We are actively working on adding amenities to make your visits even better — we appreciate your patience as we get set up, and we’d love your feedback to help us improve. Your early visits mean the world to us! We can’t wait to welcome you. Come explore! 🐕

Trail & Tail "The Overlook" — Easy I-5 Access, Fenced in Ridgefield

Fully Fenced
0.11 acres

Welcome to The Overlook — a fully fenced dog space with natural terrain, and plenty to keep curious noses busy. Enclosed by 6-foot fencing, The Overlook is a secure spot where your dog can roam, sniff, and play freely. The gently sloping hillside leads down toward Gee Creek, a small creek tucked along the property edge, creating the kind of rich, layered scent environment that dogs find endlessly fascinating. Mulch and bark pathways keep paws comfortable and the ground manageable even in wetter months. It's a great space for a game of fetch, a casual sniff session, or just letting your dog decompress off-leash in a contained setting. The varied terrain adds a little natural adventure to every visit. We also offer an on leash trail to use while on the property. A heads up: The Overlook sits adjacent to a busy road, so there is noticeable traffic noise. The 6-foot fencing keeps your dog completely safe and secure, but if your pup is sensitive to road sounds, our other space — The Meadow — may be a better fit. Great for: Fetch and active play · Sniff-focused enrichment · Dogs who do well with ambient noise · Owners who want a secure, contained space to relax
