55This is a lovely spot! Lots of long grass for the dogs to bound through, and the riverfront was so much fun (though muddy!). The site includes both sides of the road, and the half by the river is a little narrow, so if your dog doesn't have great recall I would be careful on that side. Jennifer P.

55There is just So Much to explore at this spot! Beautiful views, lots of waterfront and a massive field area with a picnic table for relaxing while the dogs run. We loved it and will be back, rain or shine! Lea H.

55This spot is perfect for my dog. Running through fields and splashing in the river stress free. Great for a dog with good recall but poor social skills. Julianne S.

55Great spot! The water is really high right now (April), so access to the river is limited - we didn't even try. If you're counting on the river access, maybe reach out before booking to make sure it's there. Even without river access, there was plenty of open space to run and play and lots of tall grass to bounce in! We had a great time. Becka N.

55So vast we didn’t even get to the others areas with water! My dogs were so enthralled to just run the big field they were tuckered out after an hour. You could easily rent this spot for 2 hours to really take it all in. Only feedback I would give is there’s no place I could see to dispose of poop bags so it was a stinky ride home trying to find a garbage can along the way at a business to get the poop bags out of our car. Other than that, it was doggie paradise and we will book again! Meredith N.

55Jessica was very thorough and we had no trouble finding the spot or navigating once we were there! The river was pretty high today so the shoreline wasn’t much but we had a great time in the field. Trash is a pack-in pack-out situation so be prepared to haul your poop bags :) Jill V.

55I don't think I have seen my dog this happy for a long time! Lots of space, exciting smells, and long grass to bounce around in. We hit a massive rain storm so we barely explored the property and will definitely be back. Thank you to our thoughtful hostess who made everything so easy.Fiona K.

55Wonderful spot. If your dog is bad at recall, don’t forget to bring an extra long lead. But even if you do forget it, like I did, there’s plenty of room to walk your dog peacefully without running into anyone else. My dog seemed to enjoy himself even on the leash. I enjoyed the change of scenery from farmland to walking along the canal and looking at the houseboats. Thanks for your sharing. Beautiful spot!Linn D.

55We had an awesome time! Loved the mowed paths all across the property. Not a single poop! Owner is super nice. Way far north on Sauvie Island but so worth the drive. Might book 1.5-2 hrs next time since there’s so much property to enjoy! Thank you!!Katelyn A.

Are dog water parks safe?

All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines. Some great ways to stay safe around water with your dog include learning canine CPR and keep an eye on your dog at all times to ensure they are not distressed.

We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
