55This is a wonderful property and David & Alma couldn't have been any nicer. My land navigation skills aren't the best so I gave myself a little extra time to find it but the maps and directions Alma sent me were so helpful. I had the pleasure of meeting David when I arrived and he pointed me in the direction for the stream hike.
My boxer used to hike off-leash in Hawaii but we haven't found many hikes in CA (until now) where he could be off-leash, so he was one happy boy! I kept my other dog on a longline since she doesn't have a good recall. We spent the whole time at the little beach next to the stream because they were enjoying the water so much. It was a great spot to sit in the chairs and eat lunch while I tossed a ball to my dogs.
The hike back to the car was a steep one and I'm not sure who was more tired at the end of it all, me or my dogs. They say a tired dog is a happy dog. Tired or not, we all enjoyed our day very much! Thank you to David & Alma for making their ranch available to us through Sniffspot and for being such gracious hosts! Becky S.

55Such a fun place to let my dogs off leash and explore safely. My first time letting my puppy off leash and she was amazing. I felt very safe not to mention the stream killed about two hours. It was very relaxing. Thank you so much.Diana D.

55It was a great experience!! The host was wonderful!! The place was amazing!! Very clean and beyond spacious. My dogs were able to be off leash, which is something they’ve never done before. The dogs loved every second of their free range. It was so nice not to worry about other dogs and people, since one of my dogs is a little reactive. My 3 dogs had the best of time!!! Saira S.

55David and Alma gave really clear directions so getting there was a breeze. The trails were clean and the views were gorgeous. Our pups enjoyed the creek, picked up sticks and ran around freely. I think the different trails can use a little more signage, but it wasn’t anything that took away from the experience (Alma also provided a very clear play by play of how to get to the creek). Overall 10/10! Karina B.

55First time using Sniffspot and this was the best place to visit. Instructions for arrival and the hike were clear. This property has access to the creek which was awesome. Hiking down to the creek was easy, but for folks that may have some mobility issues keep in mind that the walk back to your car is steep and uphill. With the recent rain the creek is FLOWING, which might not be ideal for little dogs or older dog. They did offer to reschedule our visit since it was raining which was really nice but it was bath day for our pup so we didn’t mind. All in all we will be back, but most likely when the creek is not as full so that our pup can get wet without being swept away by the current. Kudos to the hosts for sharing such an awesome spot!

55Absolutely gorgeous property! We only booked an hour but we wished we booked longer because there is just so much to see and walk through. The host was great! Even though the sniffspot app was acting wonky and not letting messages go through, we still made it work.
Make sure to reach out to the host and provide your contact details so she can text you details of how to get to the sniffspot spot as well as detailed instructions on how to find the trailhead!
Our 9 month old Golden retriever LOVED the time there! And we cannot wait for our next visit!!! Make sure to wear shoes with grip because you will come to some points on the hills where you will need it (but don't worry it's fun 💜 not crazy). I also recommend bringing a plastic bag nd backpack so you can put your poopy bags in there and rig it to your backpack. We couldn't find a trash bin so we packed it out. Get ready for a great hike with beautiful views and book it!Katrina J.

FAQ about our Canyon Lake 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 Canyon Lake 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 359 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 39 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.
Sniffspot has 359 fully fenced dog parks in or near Canyon Lake. Browse all fully enclosed options.
