55Big space for our dogs to run around with an amazing view! Fence was well maintained, we had no concerns about holes or our little dog escaping. This location was perfect for dogs of all sizes (we have a pit and a chihuahua- they both had a wonderful time). Thank you for opening up your beautiful property for doggies to enjoy!Liz V.

55We visited yesterday on our way in from the coast and will be stopping by again today on our way back home. We were greeted by a lovely bouquet of daffodils, parking is right by the gate so all 5 dogs were able to unload right into the very secure and well maintained spot. Very thankful our pups will have a conveniently located place to break up their ride.Bev H.

55Beautiful spot. The dogs can really stretch their legs in this space. A little place of heaven for dog lovers. The flowers are not accessible but very enjoyable. Nancy S.

55This place was awesome! 👏🏼 super gorgeous views, a bench to eat lunch on, provided dog bowls, bags, hose, toys & even a small pool! Fence was secure & we only saw a couple birds over head & cars on the nearby street! We had so much fun 🤩 Liza K.

55Beautiful, peaceful place! It’s close to home, has an incredible view, and the picnic table to sit at was an added bonus after a long work day.
It was well maintained, stocked with toys, and had a clean drinking bowl. The hose being available was much appreciated. Lumen can be picky about drinking after other dogs, so she was happy not drinking another dogs backwash and I was happy to not have to share my water bottle :)
My only critique is that I wish the agility course was usable for large breeds as well.
She was happy here, as was I. We’ll definitely be back! Ny D.

55This is a great spot for high energy dogs, especially if they enjoy a swim. The entrance is before the house, so if you see a pretty lavender house on the right side of the road, you have gone a little bit too far. We parked by the side of the driveway, near the pond, They have lots and lots of room in their front and side yards, plus a gravel path through to the back area where there is a mown field surrounded by grassland. Our three dogs had a wonderful time with lots and lots of sniffing and zoomies. All three dogs were interested in the pond, but only one really did any swimming. There are four domestic ducks that hang around in the pond, but they know how to stay away from the dogs. There is no fencing, but the yard is bordered by thick shrubbery, and the gravel road is very lightly traveled. It’s always great to take home a tired pup!Lynee P.

55Such a good spot! Me and my puppy had a great time! My GSD has a lot of emotions and this was a perfect spot to let him explore, play, sniff and train. They have all the accommodations and it's very picturesque. Michael M.

55We really enjoyed this Sniffspot. It was perfect for my active husky as well as the 2 senior dogs. The ground and fence are well maintained, and there's water dishes with a hose and toys available.
The most beautiful thing was waiting for us- a small bouquet of daffodils with a personalized welcome message. It was our first visit here, and it was the last adventure for my oldest guy, who we said goodbye to a couple of hours later. The small gesture meant the wold to me.Jennifer B.

55This is a really beautiful spot to visit in almost any weather. The view is spectacular even when you can’t see the three mountains. It’s been wet and rainy, but the field is on a hill, so there is no problem with super wet and muddy spots. I still recommend wearing boots until things become dry, though.
Our three dogs were in heaven. Two of them had their nose to the ground most of the time and seemed delirious with all the good smells. The Aussie really enjoyed the long views. The fence was very sturdy, and we didn’t see any places where the dogs could wiggle through.
The Sniffspot had a nice selection of toys, so there was a lot of keep away and tug games. We will definitely be back!Lynee P.

55This sniff spot was awesome! The fencing was very secure and the area was clean. There are toys to play with, bowls with water and poop bags with a trash can. The view was so pretty and our dog absolutely loved running as fast as he could throughout the whole area. We will be back and would definitely recommend! Katie M.

55Easily the most beautiful Sniffspot we’ve been to! Even the drive there is lovely. Very large green space, plenty of room to tire out a big dog. Toys, water, seating for humans, all the necessities. Very calm and peaceful and the view is amazing. We were lucky enough to be there during a patch of sunshine. We will be back for sure!Jessica T.

55Rufus had so much fun today! Could not have asked for a better time. Grounds are well maintained and the parking spot is graveled so it’s easy to clean yourself and dog off before climbing into the car. The property is gorgeous, the spot is nestled between vast orchards and a meadow of flowers. Host left a sweet little bunch of daffodils. We will be back! Thank you. Scarlet R.

55Great spot! Lovely view, open space, dedicated parking and beautiful new fencing. Only downside for me was that there are some underground critters which our dogs love to dig for and I was worried because I did not know if that was a problem.Chemelle S.

55Ellie and I had such a fun time here! The spot was super easy to find, easy parking in the gravel lot right next to the entrance, and the views were stunning.
They have a hose there, so you have water as needed to fill the bowls, and there are plenty of toys to choose from in the toy bin. There is also a potty station with bags and a trash bin in case your dog does a #2 while you're here.
It had everything we could have needed and the flowers the owner left on the gate for us with a personal note was such a sweet touch.
My pup did not want to leave when our hour was up and I don't blame her. This place is AWESOME! Thank you for creating such a great spot; we will definitely be back soon!Paige G.

55Heard about "Sniffspot" and "Harlen's Three Mountain View Dog Park" from a friend. Going to the dog parks with multiple dogs and children feels challenging at times for me. We decided to give it a try and check out this Sniffspot. It was amazing!
Finding the Spot and parking:
It was our first time at this location. I really appreciated the signs at the entrance to this spot that clearly let you know IT IS a "Sniffspot" spot. There were clear signs posted around the property that let you know what the RULES are, PARKING, ENTRANCE, etc. The ease of access from the road to the gate of the fenced play area are also a huge plus.
Amenities:
No need to spend all your time packing your toys and water for the dog park. This place had everything! Clean running water, water bowls, doggy bags, doggy bag dispenser, hand sanitizer on the dispenser(yay!), more toys than your dog will need, and a picnic table to put your leashes on and rest your feet for a second. The view is beautiful and allows you to really feel at peace with your dog.
Reserving:
Reserving was easy and the host was very friendly and quick to reply to my message prior to arriving. There was a clear warning about the holes online so, although it wasn't nearly as bad as I expected nor have seen at many parks, I was grateful for it. We chose to reserve 2 time slots to allow our dogs to enjoy the area a bit longer and meet all their needs, even the mental stimulation that the vole holes brought. They're not diggers, thankfully, they just stuff their noses as deep as they can and pop up looking like they have a "dirt stache"!
We will be returning to this Sniffspot! 5/5 stars. If there was an option for more I would give them all the stars! Our kids had just as much fun as the pups. Dog friendly, user friendly and kid friendly. Best dog park experience I've had. The pups went to sleep as soon as we got home. Clearly happy with the experience.

55Our super big over reactive dogs had a blast. They only lasted 45 minutes. They are escape artists, but this spot really is secure. We had no worries about them getting away. Fresh water available with a hose to refill the bowls. Big bucket of toys as well!Lance D.

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 19 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 5 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.
