Top Public & Private Dog Parks in Carnation, WA

We’ve visited Growing Things Farm a few times, and each visit feels like a fresh experience. The way the grass is cut differently each time creates new trails and textures, turning familiar fields into a whole new playground. It’s one of the things that keeps us coming back—my dog loves the variety, and so do I. There’s a single ditch-like stream on the property that adds a subtle touch of nature. It’s not winding or dramatic, but it’s a peaceful spot where my pup likes to sniff around and cool off. It’s just enough water to make things interesting without being overwhelming. The farm itself is spacious and beautifully maintained. With 20 unfenced acres, pesticide-free land, and fresh drinking water available, it’s clear the host Michaele puts care into every detail. It’s also wonderfully quiet—no sounds from people, just the soft rustle of grass and the occasional chirp of birds. That sense of solitude makes the experience feel even more special. Highly recommend for repeat visits—each one offers something new, and the stream adds a quiet charm to the adventure!

It was a nice spot with lots of room for running. My dogs loved the stream! There is a place for garbage along with water left out for hot tired dogs as well.

Our one year old lab had a blast running through the fields! The view of the mountains was beautiful. We couldn't let him go in the creek because he has a cut on his paw that is still healing, but we will have to be back so he can enjoy that, too.

Lovely spot. Lots of shade in the morning. Perfect for a day that promises to be hot! Appreciated the collection of balls and the kiddie pool.

Our dog loved running and sniffing in the tall grass! It’s not fully fenced but the dense grass and trees on the edge of the field made it feel fully fenced.

We had such a wonderful time exploring this gorgeous property. My dog has a blast running through the grass, sniffing around, and cooling off in the water. Can’t wait to come back!

A beautiful area for my dogs to run and wrestle. It is very clean, well maintained and the host has provided balls and toys to keep them busy. Also, a comfy, shaded spot for the owners to watch their dogs play.

This spot is out in the country a bit, but the drive is lovely. Instructions are very clear. I enjoyed the peaceful and safe setting; no noise and no other dogs or people. I practiced some rally obedience with Zulu and then we just played. It is a nice large space for zooming. The wading pool is a nice touch, and water, poo bags and disposal are also provided. Last but not least, the porta potty was a life saver and VERY clean!

We had tons of fun - despite the rain. The grass is quite high right now and I’m sure we only explored a small part - but lots to run, jump, sniff.

A great spot to run and play even on a rainy day! The pups didn’t mind the weather at all because they were too busy having fun. Appreciate the availability of water (both jugs and hose), the plethora of toys, and the fencing that is secure enough for even the smallest of pups.

Fantastic spot. We had so much fun. I’m happy I had jeans and a long sleeve shirt on. So much space to explore.

My dogs always love coming here! Lots of room to run, great toys, agility equipment, chairs to rest in after running around with the pups - happiness for everyone!

This was our second time visiting this SniffSpot and we love it! So much room for our greyhound to run around and they provide everything you need. And in the summer there is a lot of shade, which is perfect for our dog so he didn’t get too hot while playing. The hosts are very communicative and everything is clearly labeled and organized. Can’t wait to come back again!

This is a very spacious flat field. My dog loved climbing around in the tall grass. Don't forget your allergy medication if you're sensitive since this is the time of year for that!

This is one of my favorite spots to take my boys. It is clean, fully fenced, lots of interactive items, and peaceful. Thank you for continuing to share your magical spot with all of us.

So much fun! Great space to run and play with all the toys. Diana thinks of everything to keep your furry friend stimulated and safe.

Beautiful wide open space with plenty of room for big dogs to run and chase a ball. Gorgeous views for the people also.

Such a fun experience. My dogs always get so excited about being here, and I am confident that they are safe and secure!!

We had a great time here! Very private and very secure fence- even for our poodle! Peaceful setting with toys and agility equipment. It’s off a gravel road, which I wasn’t expecting but worth the drive!

Had a busy work day, so needed to have an hour of outdoor time, and the dogs had a blast! Thank you
