55Best spot for shy dogs to explore the nature! Very private and my dog enjoyed swimming the the creek. The little trail going down from the highway is steep so make sure you wear hiking shoes not flip flops.
My dog had lot of fun running around and the humans got to grill some marshmallows on the fire pit. We will be back :-)Qi H.

55Wow, this has definitely got to be one of our top Sniffspots we’ve visited! I was worried at first that it would be a real challenge to locate, however, Tammy kindly provided a photo of the parking spot and pointed out there would be stakes(which was the biggest pinpoint on how we found it). Once we started walking down the path though, I just knew this was in fact going to be a great time for the pups and am so happy this hidden gem full of beauty and sniffs for the pups is available to rent out. Highly recommend, your pup will most likely really enjoy if they like water and/or forest area. I will say mileage wise, you’re not getting a huge walk or exploration in, but it’s perfect to kindve camp out a bit at and let your dogs explore the trail and water area. I could see this being a riskier area if my dogs didn’t have good recalls as outside of the SS is a road with faster driving. Rachel R.

55Amazing spot! Like mentioned you will park on the side of the road in a dirt turnout but we had no problems with finding or leaving the car here. The walk down was a little steep but nothing crazy. When we got down to the river there are some chairs and a fire pit, next time we will book for more time and settle in a bit more. Great for a hot day and we can’t wait to go back!Dana C.

55First visit with my Frenchie! It's such a blissful spot. A mini "mountain" trail for her little legs. Parking directions were very easy to follow. Short downhill trail that was steep at some parts. The new wood railing was a big help walking to the platform. Pup did great walking up and down the trail. Some soft spots, best to stay on the trail. The water was too cold to swim in. Some rocks were slippery. Area a little wet from morning sprinkles, so bring a towel or chair to sit on. The running creek drowns out the passing cars. Quite a few cyclists on the road, too, so remember to Share the Love (road)! Love to visit this hideaway again!Angela H.

55This spot was super easy to find, and the walk down was short. My dogs had a BLAST!!! I will definitely be back. The area is very secluded although it's right off the road. Very very private and peaceful. My dogs Max and Topper ran until they got tired. They enjoyed the water. I also loved that the area was very shaded. If you haven't yet, check this spot out (: Maria B.

55Amazing spot! Peaceful and self contained. Very clean. Thoughtful amenities such as chairs, fire/bbq pit, and a railing on the steep parts of the hike down. Swimming hole was deep enough in some parts that’s our Shepherd got some good swimming in. We will be back!Megan L.

55This Sniffspot is a beautiful hidden oasis. There was so much to explore my pup, Charli never once was bored and had an amazing time running around, swimming in the deeper parts of the creek and running through the more shallow areas of water. Would be a great place to bring a picnic lunch and just enjoy nature. The host left great directions just follow them exactly as listed and watch your odometer. The host was also extremely helpful, attentive and pleasant to speak with. Will definitely be back!🐶❤️Tracy H.

55This hidden spot is beautiful and very serene. After exploring for a couple minutes, my dog relaxed and had zoomies all over the place. He looked like a puppy again. I haven’t seen him this happy in a long time. It was a break for my anxiety as well; neither of us had to worry about people or dogs ambushing us. We stayed for 2 hours and were left alone the entire time. I’m so thankful for this spot and will be coming back in the future!Naomi T.

55Very spacious and plenty of exploration for the pups. Secure perimeter and easy to spot where they roam to. We came during the hottest part of the day and there was still areas where the dogs and I were able to cool off and enjoy the shade. I also used the water hose to rinse the boys off and that was useful!
Really peaceful zone, personally enjoyed seeing the horse across the way and hearing the roosters nearby.
I did bring a bag of their own toys and balls, but we also were able to play with a basketball and one of the small tug toys that we found around the field.
Overall, a great experience for the dogs and ILinda C.

55This was a massive, lovely spot for my dog Huckleberry to run around! He had such a good time. It's fully fenced and has a great variety of elevations. As others have noted, there are some foxtails, and there's also a bit of detritus, but it's a huge, great space for dogs!Scott S.

55Amazing spot for me and my fearful exuberant pitty!!! There are some dogs that can bark kindof close to the lot or also on the walk in the driveway but everything else is far away and can only be heard. Plenty of varied terrain to roam. The goats and mini horse were a great plus too! Chelsea f.

55This is a fully enclosed large yard for the dogs to explore. It is on a hill so you will be walking up and down hills. However, if you don't want to do that, there is a small seating area with snacks and water bottles and the dogs can just run around. The grasses have been mown down to prevent foxtails.Vicki H.

55My dog really enjoys this backyard. Today he caught eye of some goats and a horse! It was really nice to be out on a less hot day. They always provide water and snacks, and it’s very easy to find. My dog really loves their toys and running around the big open space. Today they asked us how everything was which was really nice. Thanks again! Theo B.

FAQ about our Redwood City 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. 95% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Redwood City 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 106 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 20 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.
