Description

Welcome to our secluded 1.25-acre dog haven in the heart of the High Valley neighborhood of Issaquah, a perfect retreat for your furry friend to play and explore. Enclosed by cedar fencing and thick, natural vegetation, our property offers a safe and private off-leash experience for your dog to roam freely. Your adventure begins with a serene walk through the woods, leading you up the hill. The road less traveled ensures a quiet and peaceful journey to our secluded haven. Behind our home, you'll find an expansive wooded area ripe for exploration, extending the adventure into the lush surroundings of Squak Mountain State Park Natural Area. Here, a myriad of hiking trails await, serving as a natural extension of your dog’s off-leash escapade. Our terrain is rich with the rugged beauty of nature, featuring uneven ground with rocks and grass tufts—ideal for explorative paws. We recommend donning your best outdoor shoes for the climb, ensuring both you and your pup have a comfortable and safe visit. For moments of rest and relaxation, enjoy our front yard's picnic table, where you can sit back and marvel at the joy of your dog at play. Upon request, we’re delighted to set up a dog pool, adding a splash of fun to your dog’s day out. Parking is convenient on the gravel side of the street, from where you'll embark on foot to our secluded paradise. Our location, while easily accessible, feels worlds away from the hustle and bustle, offering a tranquil escape for dogs and owners alike. Join us for a day filled with exploration, relaxation, and endless fun for your furry family member. Our Sniffspot is more than just a dog park—it’s a nature retreat where your dog can truly be free.

Hazards

HOST NOTE

Please note, our natural terrain includes uneven ground with rocks and grass tufts, making navigation tricky in places. The property is on a hill, requiring a climb that can be challenging without the right footwear. We recommend sturdy, outdoor shoes for all our human visitors. While the area is securely fenced with cedar and bordered by thick vegetation, the terrain's wild nature means it's essential to keep a close eye on your pups to ensure they navigate safely. The proximity to Squak Mountain State Park Natural Area also means wildlife encounters are possible, so please be mindful and keep your dogs under control at all times

Hello, fellow dog lovers! I'm a passionate outdoor enthusiast and a devoted dog parent, living in the beautiful landscape of Issaquah. My love for nature and our furry friends has inspired me to open up my property to dogs who want to explore, play, and simply be dogs in their natural element. Growing up in the Midwest, I've always felt a deep connection to the outdoors. It's where I feel most at peace and alive. This connection has grown stronger over the years, especially when shared with the company of dogs.

UPDATE as of May 2 Spot #2 is now closed for the season. Spot 1 is dried out, and other than a couple small soft spots is free from puddles or major mud. We’ve spread bark on any soft spots, and will keep an eye on conditions. If water/ mud conditions change we will make spot #2 available again. For now we need to be planting and so will be more active in the front area. 1 acre of flat field in a beautiful setting. One large tree in the corner. Fully fenced approx 4.5’ with predator fencing. We have motion lights that come on at night, not super bright but makes the spot visible during early night winters. Boarded by two, large pastures, a private road with limited use and our barn. Occasionally during the wet months flocks of geese/ducks may land in the wetlands adjacent. We have goats, turkeys, geese, ducks and chickens but they are on the other side of the property and should not be seen/heard. We have two dogs, Veles and Flora, that will be on the other side of the property or in the house. There is a covered bench and trash can in the spot, fresh water is also available. An outdoor bathroom is available for use, see map. When using the bathroom please keep your pup in your car as it is near our goats and free range chickens. We look forward to hosting you and your pup! Please reach out if you have questions. -Jenn & Drew

3 Acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Park In Redmond

Fully Fenced
3 acres

Welcome to our fully fenced dog park, where dogs can play, run around, or take a leisurely walk. The place is fully fenced with mesh wire. We have two husky mixes (who you won’t see) who love the space and haven’t managed to find any gap in the fences to escape yet. Having two reactive dogs, I understand the significance of providing them with a safe space to unwind. We will never leave the house when you are here without prior communication, and there are no visible neighbors or other domestic animals nearby. It’s the perfect place for the dogs to relax and decompress. Areas behind closed doors are off-limits. You are welcome to explore the front, back yard and everywhere else. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or concerns. PS: The grass is a bit overgrown and I’ve been trying to secure a lawn mower to take care it.

Magical Mossy Forest

Unfenced
5 acres

Magical Mossy Forest Sniffspot is a large mystical woodland adventure for dogs in Redmond on the way to Carnation. Boots are recommended in the winter rain. MMF is preferred by puppies, dogs, people, adults and kids alike because it has potable water, power, picnic tables, chairs, several firepits, lit portapotties, 3 swing sets, 3 slides, monkey bars, 3 Forts, a log bridge to cross over Little Ames Creek for when the creek is flowing, a doggy playground, lots of picturesque moss, lighted parking lot, woodchip trails and many footpaths over 5 forested moss covered acres. Parking is near the road, separated by 50 ft of woods, so we suggest that all our doggy friends be leashed until they are on the trails with you. Please leash your dog until into the forest away from the parking area, after that Bob's Your Uncle! Watch kids and dogs in the parking area near the road, and at Ames Creek. A secluded place to dork out and have fun, enjoying a natural Pacific rainforest. Note that the creek is dry in midsummer until the fall and winter rains kick in. Boots are recommended in the fall and winter. Find a map of the main trails in a photo on our MMF Sniffspot site. There are lots of foot trails through the understory ferns. The log bridge can be used to cross Ames Creek, or you can ford it to discover the rest of Magical Mossy Forest Sniffspot. Please pack out doggy bags with you because there is no garbage pickup here, please leave no trace. If there is a downpour and you want to wait it out there is a dry shed in the parking area. Access to power helps keep your batteries charged. Please carry your toilet paper (sorry it walks away). The portapotties are cleaned once a week. Please visit our Facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61555379018442 Let us know if you have any questions. Synchronized play bowing to you!

Peace and Joy for you and your dog in Sammamish.

Fully Fenced
0.5 acres

Fully fenced .45 acre - 2/3rds is mowed and the other 1/3 is natural. As you can see from the pictures, the field is far enough from the street and house, that you feel you have enough privacy to relax and enjoy the setting. Bring water for your dog, there's a water dish provided. There’s a wet/muddy area from creek overflow by the back corner fence line - so be sure to pack some dog towels. there might be some foot traffic on the bridge that’s many yards away. our driveway gate is by the sniffspot gate, so there might be a delivery driver/resident opening/closing the gate. parking is located by the entrance. the driveway is just before/after the bridge, turn left down the driveway. the parking area will comfortably accommodate 2 vehicles, bring no more than 3 vehicles - please do not block our driveway in case emergency vehicles/delivery vehicles need to access. thanks! Please pick up after your dog and don’t let them dig. Enjoy🐾
