55This was a very pleasant SniffSpot. Our giant dogs had plenty of room to stretch out their legs, and enjoyed the ideal mix of sun and shade. The location was easy to get to and communication with the hosts prior to our visit was prompt and friendly. We appreciated the security, cleanliness, and thoughtfulness of our hosts. We’ll be back!Ilana C.

55Excellent location for fetch and a good run! The area is fully fenced, very clean, and has a nice, shaded place for the dog parents to hang out. The owners were kind enough to leave out toys and water for our visit. They also have waste bags on site which is very convenient. Michelle T.

55Great spot! Peaceful and secure with nice grass and good mix of sun and shade. Hosts were very accomodating with water for dogs and water bottles for people, toys, chairs, shade canopy, and extra bonus of a remarkably clean porta potty. Perfect size and layout to give the dogs plenty of space to run and explore without losing sight of them. On my list of places to return!Jill C.

55Plenty of open space for my reactive dog to run and explore in the two fields that were right next to each other. The host provided water (for humans and dogs), toys, dog bowl, and chairs under a canopy. Very clean and well maintained. Connie O.

55This was our first visit to this Sniffspot. The best compliment I can give to this location is that we will definitely be coming back!
We have an adult rescue GSD who came to us with some dog reactivity issues. So we are looking for large Sniffspot locations to tire out a big dog, with as few animal distractions as possible. This Sniffspot definitely provides the environment we are looking for. Quiet location, secure fencing, and plenty of soft terrain for running and ball chasing.
The owners have clearly put a lot of effort into maintaining the site. The pastures are well manicured, and there are thoughtful amenities for both the dogs and owners. Overall, the location is as nice as any other large Sniffspot that we've ever been to.
The only limiter for us is that the site is in a semi-rural location that is a bit of a drive from our home.Michael M.

FAQ about our Ephrata small dog parks
Are small dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks.

How do I know if a small dog park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your furry friends.

If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our small dog park sites where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can see any park amenities provided, including a park bench, water for dogs or water features such as kiddie pool or water hose. If your dog loves water, you can go to a park with water features, but if they don't love water, you can avoid them. We also recommend reading reviews to check for park maintenance issues and reaching out to the host with any questions. And lastly, of course, check park hours. Many of our parks are open from dawn until dusk.
