55Wow! What a cool Sniffspot! This property is absolutely gorgeous. It is so huge we were able to let my boys run free. There are working bee hives and Jack rabbits on occasion on the property however the hives are easily avoided and my dogs have really good recall. In both cases that we saw rabbits the rabbits were way too stealthy for our dogs to notice and there was zero issue. The host is responsive and very kind. Parking was so easy and she left waters out too. Take the long drive instead of the freeway and let your dog sniff out the window. What a great spot and we’ll be returning! Kira H.

55This Almond Orchard is beautiful, perfect for reactive dogs because it’s trigger-free. The host is super nice and very responsive. Springtime does mean lots of bees for pollinating, so keep that in mind if you have allergic dog. And, in between mowing, there are lots of foxtails, so be sure you keep eye on your dog and stay on the dirt roads/gravel. It’s a beautiful place for a decompression walk and I can’t wait to go back when the trees are blooming. I’ve posted a vjdeo of our visit on TikTok at charlie_goofy_gsd if you want to see more of this place. Sonja V.

55We had a wonderful time! The hosts were very kind and made us feel welcome. After a brief run down of the property/amenities the dogs were off to sniff and explore. I was never concerned for my dogs' safety as the fence was adequately secured. We will definitely be back! Ashley H.

55Our pups had a blast! The property is really lovely with lots of grassy running space (recently mowed), some trees that provide shade, and even some chickens in the next door neighbor’s yard that our pups liked sniffing. It’s really easy to access and well marked. We can’t wait to come back!Ashley H.

55Had an amazing time at this spot! My dog was happier than I’d ever seen him. the space is big and well maintained. the fencing was secure enough for our large dog. There are some rather large and not super visible holes throughout the field, so be aware of that if you have ankle problems. Our dog was able to spot donkeys at the house across the street, but he did not mind them much. Alli B.

55Second time visiting this location- such a great time! We will be regulars here for sure. Great space, clean, access to water and toys for the pups and trash can for the messes! Love letting my boy run and be free without having to worry about his reactivity. Megan L.

55My dogs had a great time running and exploring the huge field! There was some chickens next door that we said hi to a few times and practiced our leave it’s with. The field was mowed and I only saw a few foxtails. We really enjoyed our visit, thanks a lot! Aryn H.

FAQ about our Plumas 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.
