55I always loved this spot and I’m sad to see it go. Thank you for the memories for me and my dog and sharing this place with us.
55Awesome!
55This place was amazing! We didn’t come near using all 11 acres and still had amazing time. There were some little trails around the pond and the dogs loved running through all the fields
55 Always a wonderful time!
55Great mix of wooded trails and open fields for the dogs to explore. The pond was an added bonus for them to wear themselves out!
55Amazing
55We love going here! It's the first time we've been in awhile because we joined a local dog sports club and haven't needed to go as much, but it's one of the best spots around austin
55It’s been a while since I had brought my pup here, but it was great as always and there’s been lots of changes in the pond area.
55This is the best sniff spot we’ve been to! Our dog raced and raced and RAN and had so much fun. I loved that there was both the open field and the wooded part with a trail. It was also way to keep him out of the water because there was an embankment going down to it so if you don’t want a wet dog just know it won’t be an issue if your dog is recall trained and stays within sight. I highly recommend this spot and I will be back, but I do recommend reading the directions at least twice since it was a tad tricky to find.
55Amazing!

Description

OSCAR’s ACRES WILL NO LONGER BE A SNIFFSPOT AS OF APRIL 1ST. We are going to start working on our long held dream of building a home there. Thank you all for your support and giving me the joy of knowing I’ve provided romping space for lots of happy dogs. This is my dogs' happy place, named after my favorite dog Oscar. So much to smell, space to run, meander through the woods. Kick back in the chairs by the A-frame and relax while the dogs wear themselves out. Alcoholic beverages not allowed on site.

Cleanliness

99% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

Hazards

HOST NOTE

Wear boots and long pants if possible. You don't know what kind of critters you will run across and the terrain is uneven in places. We are slowly trying to clear out all the barbed wire along the fence line and a cluster of debris in the woods.

Water safety notice

Make sure to practice dog and human safety around water. Read more

I live in Smithville, in town, and LOVE it. But when life fills up too much, Oscar's Acres is my "safe zone". Anytime I take my dogs to run around there, I feel my blood pressure drop. Such a perfect place for a morning cup of coffee while the dogs roam.

Honeybark Acres 10+ Acres Partially Fenced Private Dog Park In Cedar Creek

Partially Fenced
10 acres

Perfect for dogs that can’t be around other dogs. About 8 acres of fields with paths to explore. A few open areas for games of fetch. Additional few acres of raw woods (with a sometimes creek). Working on clearing a path through the woods, but feel free to explore. Large shaded tree for picnics. The whole area is fenced, but for neighbor’s cattle, it won’t contain a determined dog. The majority of the land is left natural, be aware of snakes especially off the paths. Park anywhere on the driveway And have fun!

Elizabeth's east side fully fenced backyard with deck

Fully Fenced
0.06 acres

(More photos coming soon!) You can find my back yard gate to the right of the house, past the carport. There's a deck with a table and chairs, and plenty of room for your dog to run around. No neighboring yards have dogs, and no neighbors spend much time in their yards, so there's lots of privacy. The back yard is fully fenced. Please close the gate when you enter and exit.

Fully Fenced Yard For Big or Small Dogs in Austin

Fully Fenced
0.02 acres

I would love to share my big, beautiful backyard with other dogs and the people who love them! I have a new fence that is completely secure -- my two curious chihuahua mixes are capable of finding any holes or openings no matter how small, so rest assured that your dogs will stay safe inside once the gate is closed. The fence is 6 feet high, so your dogs won't be able to see into neighbors' yards or the road, although they may get glimpses of my dogs through the sliding glass doors into my home. There are LOTS of smells to sniff, places to explore, and trees to pee on. I have automatic solar-powered string lights throughout the backyard, so if you want to come by after dark, your visit will still be completely illuminated. While your dogs zoom and play, feel free to relax in the hammock or get some work done at the picnic table. This backyard is the perfect place to spend an afternoon!

Varied land, pastures, forest, water - our dog loved it for many years, now she’s gone and it’s time to share. There are a few sections. We recommend you drive all the way down the driveway for the best access to the large pond and trails through the woods. Off the driveway there are trails through the ravines, and up on the front is some nice pasture to explore. Fully fenced and safe! Come enjoy the sights and smells. I am also a student and teacher of human design, profiles for you or a loved one are available for $20 extra; if you’d like one, let me know at time of booking :)
