55My favorite Sniffspot in San Diego! It truly has it all—there’s a whole variety of toys so no matter what your dog loves, it’s there. A big grassy field for running, plus a hill with trees and plants for exploring. There’s even comfy outdoor furniture and lounge chairs for relaxing while your pup plays. Always clean and well cared for. We can’t wait to go back!Jennifer F.

55Our two dogs had an absolute blast at this Sniffspot! The yard is secure and spacious so the pups enjoyed the freedom to run, sniff and play. They loved the toys and shaded spots for breaks.

55Bohdis beach ball party place and their host were so amazing! It was the perfect size for us and our dog to let him run around, be free, be curious, and just lay around. Their place was very nice, very clean, and just great all around. I definitely recommend this spot for dogs of all activity levels. Nothing but great things to say about this place. Charles P.

55My grandpup Tito and I had an amazing time at Bohdis Beach Ball Party Place! I wanted to find a place where we could have some quality time playing uninterrupted fetch and relaxing together. Bohdis yard is larger than I expected and PERFECT for some fetch. The porch is an outdoor living room; the host went out of her way to insure all the dog necessities were readily available, and creature comforts were there for us humans to rest for a bit. Tito and I will definitely be back during our monthly get togethers. Kim U.

55This was my first time using Sniffspot, and it was perfect! We had private access, a beautiful yard for my dog to run around, and even a steep hill to climb. We LOVED it!Marcy A.

55Fantastic yard for dogs! My golden retriever got to run free on fresh grass and enjoyed sniffing his way around the landscaped perimeter which was fence-safe and full of delightful new smells. Julie's backyard caters to dogs big and small with lots of toys and comfortable seats in the shade. Thanks- we will come again. Susie S.

55This is such a great space! Plenty of grass for our two dogs to run around — plus lots of shade when they wanted to rest. Our pups also enjoyed exploring the hilly area in the back of the yard. The space was very clean and had great fencing. One of the best Sniffspots we’ve visited, and we’ll definitely be back! Debbie D.

55We loved how well tended and clean the yard was. We loved the faucet so I could hose down my dog when he got too hot. Loved the disposable bowls for water to keep mosquito larvae at bay. Great place to visit. Tessa O.

FAQ About Solana Beach 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?

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 225 fully fenced dog parks in the area.
