Great yard to enjoy on a beautiful day! My dog enjoyed sniffing the entire yard and something behind the sliding glass door kept her busy. Blinds were shut so I don't know what it was. Perfect amount of room to play fetch, water with ice cubes was available, and a chair for me to relax in. I knew it was worth it when she actually laid down on the grass!

This is a new Sniff Spot. When we (my pup and I arrived) the property looked very nice and welcoming with lovely fall leaves for my pup to romp in. There was a pup next door in a fenced area who greeted us. The fenced entrance gate was secured. Unfortunately I was having a problem with my knee and couldn’t keep the appointment after all. The owner, Ashley, came out and asked if she could be of assistance. I encourage you to check out this spot. It looks very nice.

We had a great time at this location. It is a large fenced in (chain link) area with lots of room for a 9 month old golden to run. There were some toys available. A ball that my retriever loved! We could hear a dog barking from inside an adjoining house but none were outside at the time of our visit. Ashley was super responsive for a same day rental request. Happy to recommend this spot for anyone who has a dog who needs room to run. It was just pure joy on my Golden's face as he ran to his little heart's content :)

My dog loved the sniffspot but was too loud in his appreciation. I will be back but after he has had more regular exercise as he was a bossy pants with selective hearing

My two dogs had such a great time sniffing, running and investigating and of course looking at the chickens! I hope they didn't stress out the chickens but boy did they love them!

This spot was amazing. We brought our dog and human reactive dog and her best friend dog and they had such an amazing time running, playing and exploring. The space is secure and the chickens were fascinating for both dogs (and the humans). Lots of balls already there, too. We will be back!

Very beautiful and spacious spot! Our pup REALLY enjoyed watching the chickens, who were very patient with her trying to herd them from outside their coop.

Always one of our favorite places! It was unusually muggy, and the dogs appreciated the tank pool. Plenty of good sniffs and places to explore- my girl even found a good-sized toad! (Who I quickly rescued & tossed into the nearest shrubbery.)

This was our first SniffSpot experience and we had SUCH a great time! The space was beautiful, well maintained, and fun to explore. Already looking forward to our next visit!

Great spot! The dogs had so many places to sniff and now they’re beat. Didn’t think the dogs would care about the pool but of course my lab jumped right in before I could get the cover fully off. Had a good time.

It was perfect! They have toys, poop bags, a pool, places to sit, access to water, and a TON of running around space. The pups loved it!

We loved this spot! It was our first time using Sniffspot and we couldn’t have had a better experience. The area was clean, we didn’t come across any other dogs, and my dog was so happy.

Excellent spot for dogs to play! My German Shepherd is very dog reactive so we can't do normal parks. There were no other dogs or distractions and he had a blast. Owner was easy to communicate with and had lots of balls to play with there as well. Will go again some time.

FAQ about our Cottage Grove 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.
