55Kathy is such a kind host! She was very welcoming and gave a brief intro to the property. The area was filled with places for Honey to explore! There were more woods-y spots for sniffing and exploring along with a large field to play Fetch, scent work etc. It was also very quiet, no dogs or people seen or heard,Edgar S.

55This place is awesome. Melissa came out about halfway through our stay to check in and give us some info about the yard. There is a pool and the fence is perfect for our pups. There is an apple tree dropping fruit so heads up if your dog is one to eat or roll in stuff, but this was perfect for our pups. We’ll be back!! Michelle D.

55We loved this property. Clean, well kept and easy to see the pups when they were exploring, but also plenty of running space to launch and chase balls and enough going on to provide mental stimulation. Loved the size of the kiddie pool on the hill, its lower profile made my dogs jump in every chance they got. Our first visit to this property and we will return. Emily W.

55Thanks for the space for my guy to roam. He is a high jumper, so I put him on a long lead in case I needed to grab him (he can clear a 6 foot fence) but it was quiet, peaceful and no worries. He enjoyed sniffing and roaming very much. I appreciate the room to roam and so did he!Jennifer H.

55Thank you for hosting us! Melissa was wonderful and made sure we had access to water. Easy access and parking. Plenty of shade even in the late morning. Cleetus loved exploring this new spot and digging through the toy box! Love having another wonderful spot in the Hillsboro area! Amber M.

55I really enjoyed the fact that this property has low street traffic, therefore my fence reactive boy doesn't get upset and my girl who is dog reactive doesn't have to woof. Abby M.

55Was many hours into our road trip back home and was in desperate need to get the pup out, but with it being 100 degrees out I didn’t just want to pull over anywhere. I stumbled upon this spot and was SO thankful they basically took me with 15 minutes notice! Had the perfect kiddie pool (bigger than most) all ready for us upon our arrival along with fresh filled water bowls! It was exactly what we needed and more. We will be back! Tayler J.

55Still my boys favorite sniffspot so far! Plenty of shade! They have seating, clean dog bowl and even filled up a little pool for them before I got there! My boys have not been curious about the pool but with rising temps I’m glad it’s available! The owner is so nice as well and helped me out with extending my times today etc! Highly recommend!Nicole M.

55Nice large and flat space. Surprisingly quiet despite being near a freeway. Space is a corner lot, so not private but neighborhood fairly quiet. Site has chairs, toys, hoses, etc so it's set up for a full experience. My dogs especially liked the two hummocks for zooming up and down (and round and round).Val & Paul K.

55My dogs’ favorite Sniffspot so far! They loved checking everything out, being able to do big zoomies in the yard, play ball, investigate the trees, roll around in the shade, and even splash in the pool, which was fun to see since they’re not really water dogs! They came home tired and happy. It was also the perfect size for me to keep an eye on them at all time and the fences were nice and tall. Jenny S.

55Happy Haven Dog Park is awesome! This was our first time using Sniffspot and we’re so happy to have found this spot as there is so much space & land for our pup to freely run about. The host was also very nice when they welcomed us, I highly recommend this spot!Eva H.

FAQ about our Rockaway 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?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Rockaway Beach area are 5 stars.
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 32 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 6 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
