55I've been to a number of Sniff Spots with my friends, and this is easily one of the best, if not the best we have been to. The hosts were incredibly friendly and kind, the area was well maintained, and there plenty of toys and fresh water for the dogs. One back corner is a little wild and the dogs picked up a few burrs, but nothing a little brushing can't fix. The fencing was very secure all around. I would happily go again if in the area and highly recommend it. Remy H.

55Robyn’s sniff spot is so so great! Peaceful and welcoming to two young dogs who need confidence building as they both tend to be extremely submissive. Dogs and dog parents alike feel safe and happy there! Thanks Robyn!💖🐾Marta F.

55I love that Robin and Lloyd always have chairs waiting for every person in our group. My dog has had fun whether it’s been a party of two or a party of six. And, since she is a water dog, Robin always has the pool filled up for Hannah to cool down. This has been a great experience. The yard is well fence, perfectly clean, flat and open, and has a ring of trees around the outside for plenty of shade.!Linda R.

55Robyn and Lloyd were fabulous, welcoming and helpful. The yard was fun for my puppy to safely run and play.
My only complaint is that I had 1 dog for 30 min. was charged for 2 dogs for 1 hr. Tryed to fix the problem online but was unable to do so. Dawn N.

55We were greeted by Robyn she showed us around and was very pleasant. We were impressed with all the extras provided. Our dogs loved it as well! Plenty of variation in the landscape as well. We booked for tomorrow before we even left! Floyd met us on our way out greeted our boys with treats and was there to take the chairs in and tidy up. Great sniff spot!!!! Lilith M.

55This is a great spot. Lloyd met us at the gate and was so friendly and welcoming. He put out fresh water, toys and treats which was really nice. He gave Sadie a treat on the way out too. The space is large and Sadie was a happy girl running around. Kathleen p.

55The best part of using this spot is the one on one you can have with your dogs . We were able to work on off leash recall and different retrieval games without distraction with other dogs as in a dog park . The host was super nice and provided water for the dogs, toys and poop bags if you forget yours. Our Border Collie and our Schipperke enjoyed the freedom to run that they can’t get on leash We will be backKaren G.

55The yard was hardly muddy after all the rain, and I appreciated the straw spread around in the few muddy spots. Matisse had a great time playing keep-away with the ball, and sniffing everywhere. We've been here a few times, and will keep coming back.Nancy S.

55Such a great, well maintained place to visit! Even though my dogs are dog and people friendly, sometimes I'm not! This is a wonderful, peaceful place to wander through the woods with quiet thoughts and best friends literally sniffing everything ❤️ Also over the months I've visited off and on I'm pleased to share that the host is continually improving his Sniffspot. Little saplings planted all along the trails, trails are well groomed, driveway gravel is fresh and flat, plenty of trash cans, water and even poo bags if you forgot your own. Lovely day to enjoy the sunshine and quiet. Highly recommended!Laura M.

55This is a lovely wooded spot, with numerous side trails and a little wooden bridge on one of the trails. Our dogs enjoyed jumping over downed trees and making their way through the various paths, and we enjoyed sitting in the chairs a bit after exploring. We enjoyed having our own private area without worrying about encountering other dogs, joggers, and vehicles!Dale Y.

FAQ about our Hoodsport 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. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Hoodsport 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 207 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 33 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.
