55We have three happy, exhausted pups that can’t wait to come back to the Orchard! Plenty of shade, plenty of open space to explore, and a big thank you for the water jug for the pups! Ashley R.

55Lots and lots of land and shade from the trees! Very relaxing environment! Be aware of bees but it truly was a non factor in our case. My pup had a great time fetching his ball and lying in the shade. And leaving water for the dogs and humans was a great touch as well! Will definitely come back. Pamela P.

55Had another great experience here as always! My dogs loveeee the wide open (AND CLEAN) space to run free and play fetch! My oldest is a big water baby and he absolutely loves the pool that's provided. And I am sooo thankful they always have fresh towels available because I always forget to bring mine 😅 I LOVE this spot and will definitely continue to bring my fur babies here!Amanda T.

55We went back yesterday and had another lovely visit! The dogs wore themselves out quickly with all the space to run and things to sniff. They heard a rooster crow a couple of times and were so intrigued. Good times! We will be back.Cindy K.

55Nice large, well maintained field with a little pool for the dogs. Enjoyed the greener part of smaller yard at the entrance too to work on a little obedience. Toys, poop bags, hand sanitizer were also provided which was thoughtful and a nice touch. My dog loved the pool and all the free space to run around and explore.Sharon F.

55Our Great Dane and Great Pyrenees loved being able to run and explore this fenced property. The owner Tyler greeted us and was super nice. The doggie pool was nice for the dogs to cool off. And they had quite a few dog toys to choose from. Highly recommend if you are looking for a place for your XXL dogs to run and romp full speed they will have plenty of room. MaryJane G.

55The open space is awesome! The amenities are beyond what I expected, and my dog, Redd, had the best time running, sniffing, and hanging out in the pool. Redd is a big dude, about 100 lbs, and the fences were very secureLili M.

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.

55Great experience - easy parking, lots to sniff. Watch for bees. Saw a snake - wasn’t a rattler so no need to worry. Not fenced but tons of land to explore. We brought long 20ft leashes for dogs to explore. Would definitely come again. Jamison L.

55This was our first time with Sniffspot and it was amazing. No loud noises or dogs or people to stress my dog out. Plenty of room for her to run. Clear signage indicating where to park.Emma F.

55Great place for an off-leash romp! My husband and I walked the road within the orchard, and Maisie hopped the rows and ran among the trees - a great way for her to work off some of her abundant energy. We'll be back.Karen L.

55LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SPOT!
My dogs were off leash (we are always practicing recall) and they were so thrilled. There are giant rabbits there that will occasionally scare the poo outta ya, BUT it’s so beautiful and worth every penny. Will definitely be returning.
Be careful around the bee houses because my dog got stung in a place nobody wants to be stung but if you steer clear of them, you’ll have a pleasant time. breanna m.

55We had a wonderful time with our dogs. We didn't have to worry about cars or other dogs. The dogs left exhausted, like they had a day at Disneyland. The only thing to consider is that there are jack rabbits and working hives, so be on the lookout. It was also nice to have the almond trees with a little bit of shade today, as it was a little hot. Also, the host left plenty of water for the dogs and human guests, along with treats for the dogs. I loved that little detail during our time there. We will definitely be back.Marie L.

55Great location, nobody around except bees and jackrabbits (be careful around the beehives, there are quite a few). Very peaceful! The shade from the trees is very nice, will be a big plus in summer. There are foxtails to avoid or get an OutFox for your dog to wear. If your dog doesn’t have good recall or isn’t ecollar trained, don’t let them loose because if they start chasing a rabbit they’ll be out of sight quick. Loved being able to just walk around and not worry about random off leash dogs running up to us.Dawn F.

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.

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.
