55Beautiful area with lots of sniffy areas and running spaces.
55Beautiful property! Rowan enjoyed all the new smells. Couple of things to consider. I went in the early afternoon and it was quite warm. Suggest early morning. The driveway is very steep. Consider the vehicle your taking with that in mind. Thanks again, Jen!
55Such a great spot!! It’s a bit tucked away, but that’s what makes it so special. I like that Koko can run around freely and get the hiking experience without having to worry about running into other pups. I have been there twice and it’s always beautiful. It is worth the drive and it is the only Sniffspot around the area where I live that offers something like this. Highly recommend!
55Beautiful property and very well maintained. Would definitely recommend. I booked two hours and it was the perfect amount of time. We were able to hike and explore and then went to hang out by the picnic tables and enjoy the views. My dog absolutely loved it.
55Absolutely breathtaking property. There is enough flexibility to make it an easy or challenging day out with your dogs. I kept my girl on a 30ft lead while we explored the wide trails. Next time I’m booking two hours and bringing a picnic lunch. The directions given were super easy to follow. Be aware that the private dirt road and steep driveway are NO JOKE. Please make sure you drive SLOW like 3-5mph and have a sturdy car. The potholes and uneven pavement due to the rain are aplenty.
55My pups loved this spot, it was clean and exactly as described. I definitely recommend and I'll be back again.
55My dog Ella & I had a nice relaxing time at Quail View Ranch private dog park. Beautiful serene area up in the mountains in Thousand Oaks. Lots of birds and the sound of the nearby creek. Ella loved sniffing around. The last part of the drive is a dirt road with several potholes so drive slow & be careful. Worth the drive.
55My little family and I absolutely loved this space! It was such a beautiful little escape and the mountains were stunning! I mistakenly thought it was more of hiking spot than it is but that didn’t stop us from having two hours of fun! Our two dogs have pretty good recall and we’re off leash. There is a big open area and the trail is wide enough to run and play frisbee! Our dogs were tired for days after. The hiking area is probably a total of .25 miles in each direction (two possible directions). We went one way, spent time running and playing frisbee then went the other way before heading back to our car. We had a lovely time and I’d highly recommend this space! Also worth keeping in mind that the main path connects to what seems like a service road at the bottom and we did encounter a couple of trucks come through. It wasn’t an issue for us but we definitely made sure to not have our dogs go that far down.
55Really wonderful communication and host. Friendly and overall great experience.
55Nice wide trails with stunning views. My dog loved running and exploring off leash. We’ll definitely be back.

***Our Sniffspot is open most weekdays and limited weekends. Become a spot member to get personal notification about open weekends and up to 25% off our rates!*** We are located in a quiet canyon and only 5 miles from Westlake Village, Thousand Oaks, and the 101 freeway. Since January 2020 we have offered: • individual reserved appointments for a private visit with your dog • a rustic dog park to enjoy on or off-leash (we do not have fences) • contact-less visits; you'll receive detailed instructions to our spot prior to arrival • approximately 4-acres of rolling hills, dirt paths, native plants, oak trees, and sniffing spots • an outhouse restroom for your use • a picnic table, a shaded area, and chaise lounges • 360-degree views of the Santa Monica Mountains • quiet interrupted by the sounds of quail and numerous other birds chirping • dog waste bags and trashcan so you don't have to haul waste home with you • an onsite weather station to help you plan your visit www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KCAWESTL52 Our guests have: • enjoyed a leisurely stroll with their dogs while enjoying the views • played with their reactive pup without the worry of other people or other dogs • snapped great photos • shared a picnic with their pup at our picnic table • played fetch and did some zoomies in the open area • relaxed on a chaise lounge while enjoying the quiet • sniffed, sniffed again, and sniffed some more! We joined SniffSpot in when we realized how much our five rescue dogs love running from smell to smell on our ranch. We hope your pup loves it too!

My family and I love the mountains and we are blessed to live in them with our five rescue dogs, tortoise, and chicken flock.
