55Amazing spot to bring your dogs! The pond area was so nice to chill and relax while my pups got to know the place. We then walked up hill in the pasture area and they were able to zoomie and sniff to their hearts content. The view at the top is so worth it. Can only imagine what sunsets look like but this mornings view was spectacular. We had a grand ole time and hope to be back in the future to enjoy some more. Rebecca and Jesse F.

55This Sniffspot was really fun! Our dog is very timid and he had no problem getting out and up to the play area. The field was huge and the pond is a great bonus. The view from the top of the hill is something special. Dana S.

55We enjoyed our visit immensely, plenty of space to explore and it was lovely to sit at the top of the hill in the sun and take in the view. The property lines were easy to see. We will definitely be back. Anita P.

55Such a fun spot! Loved the beautiful view and the property is well kept! Helpful to wear some good boot here though. There are some sneaky black berry vines here and there. My shepsky had an amazing time running a muck here! Bella M.

55This property is pretty much Dog Heaven...so much open space yet there are trees and bushes for exploring and hills to run up and down. My dogs LOVED it. The top of the hill where the two Adirondack chairs are placed offers a stunning view and a place to watch your dogs having fun. Treat yourself and your dogs by coming here! Elise S.

55Oh my, this is like a slice of heaven! It is so peaceful. My foster pup was almost as tall as the grass in some spots, lol (he is kind of a low rider). The VIEW IS ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC at the top. There is a cool little wooded area on the right side as you head up. My lil dude was on a long line and he was tearing around in the grass and getting all the smells while I took in the view!!!!! Definitely worth the trip and we will be back. P.S.-There is a small garbage can for poop bags as you head into the property on the left and one in the wooded tree area. Daryn J.

55Lots of room to run! Convenient trash bins located near towards the entrance and another in the mini forest. There's also chairs located at the top of the hill. My pugs are definitely tired from all the running around and exploring.Joselyn M.

55What a stellar place to wander and wonder at all the beauty the Willamette Valley has to offer: amazing views, old growth trees, verdant valleys and hills to roam.
There are several different trails mowed through the meadows. We chose to climb the hill and were richly rewarded with distant views and wide open skies.
Be sure to drive slowly on the gravel road. It is easy to kick up a cloud storm of dust and it’s hard on the neighbors. Slow down to 10-15 miles, roll down the windows, and soak in this exceptional rural areaShannon L.

FAQ about our Independence 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 Independence 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 76 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 19 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.
