55Fantastic spot for your dog to run freely. This securely fenced park is a great play space close to Eureka. The pooper scooper, bags, and trashcan are all very convenient for cleaning up after your dog and there is a water station and some toys to play with too! Beautiful and peaceful area - this would be an ideal spot for reactive dogs. We loved it and hope to return soon! 🐾Amber U.

55We had a great time in the big open space. We are working on recalls and it’s the perfect area. Both of my pups loved the box of toys. I am thankful for such a kind owner to open this SniffSpot for the community.Lisa O.

55Large secured grass field on a beautiful property with a water spigot for the pups. Plenty of room to throw a toy so I was able to wear out my high energy dog pretty quickly. We will definitely be back. Jade S.

55Excellent spot. The grass is well manicured, fencing is secure and the toys and amenities were nice. The spot is pretty remote, didn’t see any other people or wildlife while we were there. Amber M.

55A nice spot with water, toys, and a secure fence for the pups to play. We were lucky to see 2 fawn run by in the field. The dogs loved running alongside inside the fence and trying to spot the deer.Lacy C.

55Nice open area. No fencing to the right of gate nearest road. Don't unleash until the second gate. Very convenient, lovely surroundings, dogs loved it.DeAnn R.

55Our pup had a wonderful time here! I appreciated the notes about gates that may be open, all the information in the listing made the space easy to navigate. Great mix of sun and shade- be sure to bring water for your pup and some poop bags.Florence C.

55Bring your own water/dishes/poo bags.
Enjoy a large, fully fenced, undeveloped lot positioned off street with very few distractions. Great for reactive dogs.
Bears/deer pass thru here regularly, and leave behind lots of interesting smells.

55Great spot! My dog had a great time. He loved getting to sniff around and hunt for sticks! So much to explore. It felt like getting to take him camping for just long enough to tire him out!EJ A.

55Very peaceful location. My dogs had a great time sniffing around and chasing balls. We don't use sniffspots that often, but they're a godsend while my husband is recovering from knee replacement surgery.Barbi R.

55It was perfect! With it getting dark earlier I was having a problem finding a safe place to toss the ball to my dog. I booked it at 7:30 at night and went at 8:30 the same night. It was a little hard to navigate because it was my first time there and it was dark. I did have a flashlight and she turned on all the lights in her house which helped tremendously. My dog had a great time! I can't believe I never knew that this existed. It felt safe and secure.Wendy W.

55My boy and I loved it over there. He immediately zoomed around the upper and lower section and we had a great time walking the perimeter and sniffing out the previous visitors. He loved rolling on the grass and drinking from the extra large water bowl, with a nice little view of the bay to boot. Thank you so so much for sharing your beautiful land. Will definitely come back!!Ana Z.

55Beautiful clean area, lots of room for my doggies to explore and room around. I have a dog who is extremely reactive and needs to get out and run. This was a perfect spot, there were no other animals or people and she was able to play fetch and run. My other doggie is happy to just roll around in the grass. Good day for all of us. Thank you Megan Q.

55Perfect for what we needed - a large interesting yard for my very energetic cattle dog to run around in on days my mother is watching her (mother has limited mobility). Janelle D.

FAQ About Eureka 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.

All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 0% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Eureka area are 5 stars.
