55This was a blast! My pup had a ton of fun on the shore, running around the field, and smelling everything around.
The toys and life vests were such a great addition. Access to the boat is so kind and is an example of the care put into this location! Will absolutely returnBradley C.

55First visit, already looking forward to next time! Ours is a cautious, low-threshold pup (9 months), so quiet and low distraction are our main filters; Tail Waggers delivers and then some. Raymond & Janet have thought of everything in their caretaking & you can feel the magic. There is so much natural area to sniff & explore that most of our time was spent on a basic walkabout versus being in the water, at the playground, or on the trails. We'll have to build up to those activities and off-leash time, but other more adventurous, experienced, or mature dogs will LOVE this cross between Dog-Disneyland and heaven. Thank you, Raymond & Janet, we hope to visit again soon!
Access notes: Clear directions from host, excellent signage on property. Others have mentioned the road down to the main parking area: my AWD minivan would have *probably* been fine on the loose gravel and not-huge incline but I played it safe and we walked. It ended up being good entry & exit "decompression time." 30-35 minutes from NE PDX on a Sunday morning, totally worth it. <3Janice M.

55We had an absolutely amazing time! Benny was most interested in the main area and the pond so we didn’t even get a chance to explore all the trails and agility equipment. We’ll be back for sure!
We loved all the touches they added like the dog towels and water station and boat! Be sure to read the bulletin board - lots of great information. I was a bit worried about toxic algae in the pond just because how it’s been popping up around Portland water ways, but they include a pic of a test kit you can bring and people actually leave their readings on the board as well. Super helpful! It seems like they don’t have any issues but nice peace of mind.
We actually parked at the top of the driveway and walked down and it wasn’t bad. Benny was pretty tired on the way back up but it’s good exercise for us both. He is super reactive and we had no issues with triggers at all. Very peaceful and serene setting. Thank you for creating such an inviting space for our doggos to enjoy! Ronnie N.

55This is our favorite Sniffspot! We have to come at least once a week. My pup loves it but it’s also amazing for humans. We have been coming since it opened. It was wonderful then but it gets more fabulous everytime we go. The owners are so thoughtful about every addition. It’s a truly special and fun place. We are so grateful to be able to enjoy it!!Mindy C.

55This spot is as close to perfect as it gets! My dogs loved the variety of things to do as they enjoy mixing it up a bit and did a little of everything. These hosts have literally thought of everything; even providing drying towels. All amenities were so convenient and thoughtfully executed. Directions and expectations were clear. Thank you; we will be back!Tanley D.

55My reactive rescue dog and I had a wonderful time here! The space is beautiful! It's well maintained and has plenty of amenities for pups and humans alike. We didn't see or hear anything other than a few ducks on the pond. Waffles tried out some agility features, but we didn't get a chance to explore everything - next time, I'll book more than an hour. We will definitely be coming back!Erin L.

555 stars as usual! Tried out some of the new agility obstacles! We also tested the water and it’s all clear, so my boy got to swim and retrieve sticks from the water. Chantalle v.

55I’ve been using sniff spot for almost 2yrs now & this is by far my favorite. It’s got everything a dog would want/need. We have 2 dogs and 1 loves the water and swimming and the other loves to do her zoomies in an open field so it’s the best of both worlds for the both of them. They have towels to dry your dogs off, we even enjoyed the little boat to go out on as well. Eveything was nice, neat and organized. A well planned out sniff spot. 😍Caylee T.

55My Great Danes and I loved this sniff spot! There aren’t any fences but there are natural barriers for them. It was perfect for my senior Great Dane and also my reactive one. There weren’t any other animals or people to make her nervous. They both had a great time exploring . I did too. I really appreciated all the clearing marked signs for everything.. There was fresh clean water the dogs and even a bathroom for me. I loved how beautiful it is there and how private it felt . I’ll be going back for sure. Kaylie E.

55First time visiting and it won’t be our last! This place is doggy Disneyland. My dog loves the water and hiking. My mom brought her two dogs and they had a blast too. Big field to play fetch! All the toys you can think of and the trails are awesome and will be amazing when they are finished. A lot of thought went into this and I am thankful since I have a reactive dog and can’t take him to other spots! Stacey J.

We will definitely be back, maybe with snacks for the humans to sit back and hang out a little longer! Always would love to explore the trails next time. Ireland B.

FAQ about our Oregon City dog water parks
Are dog water 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. With Sniffspot 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. 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. You can learn more about safety around water here.

How do I know if a dog water park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog water parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog water parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to see what kind of water features are offered to make sure it works for your dog. If your dog is not a strong swimmer, then perhaps choose a dog water park with tamer water features rather than a river or beach, for instance. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot water park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Additionally, we recommend following our water safety guidelines.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot water park at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
How much do Sniffspot dog water parks cost?
Dog water parks in the Oregon City area range from $4.0 and $4.0. The least expensive dog water park is Please come and play in my yard. The most expensive dog water park is Please come and play in my yard. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
Can I have an event or party at a dog water park?
If you are planning an amazing dog water park party, each Sniffspot water park has their own rules regarding special events. Many water parks allow doggie birthday parties, training and other event types. Event organizers need to be responsible for their guests and event organizers should coordinate with the host regarding their fun party.
What are the coolest doggie water features available?
