55Amazing spot to explore the woods with your dog, play fetch with sticks, and splash/swim in the creek to cool off. We spent 3 hours here and walked every trail we can find (there are many). It was very peaceful and quiet, and I appreciated the well-placed benches to relax and take in the environment. It was a great place to practice recall off-leash with my dog.
John and Stephanie were both very welcoming and walked us through the pasture area where the cows chicken and rabbits hang out.
Planning to come back here again!Yuliana H.

55Seriously the nicest hosts ever. This was our second time back and my dogs and 3.5 year old son had another fun filled adventure! There’s so much to explore and it feels like a little vacation. Definitely wear your boots and get ready to play in the mud - it’s pretty avoidable and definitely not all over the property but it’s just more fun to get a little dirty with the pups! We packed a light lunch and sat in the grass after exploring the trails and then romped in the creek before heading home. Can’t wait to go back again!Mollyrose D.

55Oh my gosh, this place is Heaven on Earth. John & Stephanie are two of the nicest people I've ever come across and their farm is magical. They were nice enough to keep their dogs in the house for our arrival and departure and, even though we could hear the dogs in the house, Cooper was totally relaxed. Directions are straightforward and there is a Sniffspot sign on the gate so the property is super easy to find. John came out to meet us when we got there, told us where to park and Stephanie came out to say hello...then John took us through the gate to the Sniffspot. My usually reactive boy, Cooper, strolled happily through the pasture past a goat, a bunch of chickens, bunnies and 2 massive steer, all just within feet of us...he was completely unphased by all of it, not even one bark! The animals are all so sweet and happy and all throughout the farm there is such a peaceful energy...Cooper was immediately relaxed. As soon as we got to the other side, I let Cooper off his leash and he went crazy, romping, sniffing and running while John walked us around, giving me the lay of the land. He was so welcoming and spent lots of time showing us all the trails and some of the cool sights. We were so busy chatting that I forgot to pay attention so walked back down toward the pasture with him to make sure I knew how to get back. Turns out it's super easy and pretty near impossible to get lost. Once we were by ourselves, Cooper and I just hiked all over, explored all the trails and Cooper had loads of fun splashing around in the creek. Mostly shallow water but we found a couple spots deep enough for him to swim briefly. He was a dirty, wet boy by the time we left...and soooooo happy. We were there for 2 hours and I think it was the perfect amount of time. On a sunnier day, with a picnic, we'd probably make it 3 hours. Really, really lovely place and we are definitely going to be back soon. ❤Susan D.

55We enjoyed this SniffSpot so much! Behind the farm includes an expansive trail system with many creek crossings, some wide enough for the pup to swim in! It felt as though we were on our own private hike! A ways up the trail is a cabin built by the the host, a perfect place to sit on the deck and cool off. The host was wonderful explaining the layout to us.
Do note- there is more than one entrance to the forested trail area. The SniffSpot directions take you to the main gate/house. We were greeted with the host dogs running toward the fence, which got my dog (still in the car) overly excited. The host was very responsive to my concern and placed his dogs inside. We crossed through the pasture with the cows, chickens, and goats without problem. However! If you have a sensitive dog to dogs/livestock *please* let the host know prior to entry! It is possible to meet at the other entrance to the trail system and avoid crossing the pasture with animals. The host obviously loves animals, is responsive and kind to let us use their space. We will definitely book this againAmanda V.

55WOW! I think this is my favorite spot so far. John and Stephanie are excellent hosts , giving great directions and information about the property. They have some beautiful farm animals that we had to walk thru but John walked us thru and we kept the pups on the leash, it was fine. In fact our dogs weren’t reactive with John at all as we walked with him. Go figure... It is so beautiful with great well marked trails and a creek running thru it for the pups to play in and chairs set up for you to just take it all in. Up on the top trails is a cabin being built with a great deck to relax on. Next time we will bring a picnic and do 2 hours! We hated leaving. Upon leaving John gave us some fresh vegetables from their garden and fresh applesauce Stephanie had just made. We will definitely be back! Highly recommend.Denise R.

55What a gorgeous place to let your dog run and play!!! This property offers a beautiful running river, areas where you can toss a ball as well as hiking trails that gradually incline up hill. Within the trails of the property is a cabin where you can relax in the chairs and enjoy the scenary. There are also chairs along the river to sit while your dog enjoys the water. The owner John walks you through the area where the farm animals are grazing into a gated area where you can then let your dog off-leash.
John was gracious, hospitible and kind offering to allow us to stay longer if we would like because I had inadvertently mapped the wrong address and arrived a bit later than our start time. He also offered delicious vegetables from his beautiful garden!!
I would highly recommend this place for your dog! Our dog was sooooo happy to run around freely but especially loved the river!Shannon C.

55This is our 2nd visit and we had so much fun! Hosts John & Stephanie are so welcoming and the farm is beautiful. I'm really surprised how completely relaxed my reactive boy Cooper is walking through all of the animals in the pasture. I worried about it quite a lot but both times he didn't bat an eyelash. This time the chickens and bunnies were running all over and the steer was laying down maybe just 4 or 5 feet from the gate to the Sniffspot. No problems at all, Cooper just strolled past all the critters and the giant steer, happy as can be. Just as our first visit, we again booked 2 hours and I find this is a great amount of time for us. I was surprised to find there are a lot more trails than I realized the first time we were here and some are fairly steep with beautiful moss covered logs bordering the pathways. Super pretty and secluded. We hiked all about, regularly running back to the beginning so Cooper could splash about in the creek. This is such a peaceful place and very calming, a great place to unwind and for your pup to explore. As weather permits, this is definitely going to be one of our regular spots and we can't wait to be back.Susan D.

55This is our 3rd time here. We are head over heels in love with Spring Acres. I'm not sure how, but every visit is better than the one before. You couldn't ask for more welcoming, kind hosts as John & Stephanie...they are such good people. And I just can't get over how Cooper strolls through all the animals in the pasture....it's bizarre to see my reactive dog so completely at peace...I just love it, makes me so happy. 😊 This time it was rainy and we had the best time hiking around and discovering new trails. Cooper loves splashing around in the creek, racing around like a nut and rolling around in the grass and I love the fresh air and peace & quiet. It's nice roaming around without the worry of encountering other dogs and I am totally relaxed here. Super awesome amazing Sniffspot! Can't wait to be back!Susan D.

55This place is the best! It has some trails for running, water for splashing, an grassy area for fetch, some wooden bridges and best of all a cabin to hide on the deck if it rains. Riley ran around like a lunatic and Buddy was able to sniff until his heart was content. There is something for everyone! The hosts are super nice and generous and great communicators. There are some very calm farm animals - cows, goats, chicken, bunnies and a peacock to be aware that you will need to pass. They won't bother you though.Erika S.

FAQ about our Longview dog hiking trails
Are dog hiking trails safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than a city or county park. With a Sniffspot off-leash area all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). 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. Our hiking trails tend to be outside the city, which lends to more privacy, but it is also important to follow typical hiking safety precautions, such as potentially having trail maps.

How do I know if a dog hiking trail works for my dog?

Since you are looking for trails, make sure to check photos to see if it the spot has flat trails or gnarly trails. You can also browse by specific amenities, if you are looking for a view or a beach, for instance, or other activities or fun features. You can check whether the spot has off or on street parking, the regular park hours, whether it has paved trails or a modern restroom.
