55Just as described. I was looking for a place where my dogs could enjoy roaming around outside while I mostly relaxed. It was perfect. Also as the day gets warmer there’s more shade (ie in the afternoon and à kidder pool you can put some water in. Nice view as well. Angela R.

55My two dogs loved the open field to sprint around! There is agility equipment, a gazebo with a picnic bench, access to water (hose), plenty of toys and space. As noted in the description, there are a few holes from critters and fill dirt available, but my dogs loved shoving their noses and getting all of the random smells in each hole they found. I left with two very tired dogs and will be back :)Marissa M.

55My dogs and I loved the spot! Lots of toys and space to roam. For summer visitors, be aware I encountered a lot more wasps than I’d expect from a dry field. That’s just a part of nature and not in the host’s control, I’m just always more conscious of them because one of my dogs is severely allergic.Gwen L.

55Amazing park, fully fenced. During the summer months it’s dryer and dustier than in photos. This doesn’t really matter for me, just wanted to let folks know. Annika M.

55Scooby was all about the fence lines today, so we got in some training with recall commands. As usual here, he wears himself out from running in about 15 minutes. 😂 Thank you for sharing your beautiful scenery and spacious park with us. Tawnie H.

55Great place to bring your doggy. Lots of water and room to roam and a place to sit under a shelter area. I think it was a pretty quiet area although there's some traffic near. Might have heard a dog bark a mile away it is very quiet. A great place to visit. Beautiful scenerySandra K.

55Nala had so much fun running and sniffing around. There’s also a good shade area with a picnic table to take a break from the sun. The obstacle course was a fun addition. Hannah N.

FAQ About Forest Grove Dog Parks

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.

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.
