55Awesome spot. Trails are marked, run through the woods and up the mountain, and the creek is gorgeous. Curtis met us and recommended where to start. Most definitely plan on coming back to let the dogs roam the creek. Saw some deer crossing the driveway, and we heard some chicken noises from the driveway that made me giggle pretty hard. Lovely neighborhood. Great property. Hayden H.

55This is easily the most beautiful spot we’ve ever visited! It’s an amazing oasis for humans to hang out while their dogs enjoy all of the space to run and explore. The fence is very secure. I’d recommend this location to anyone looking for a relaxing place to take their dog.Kim W.

55This is my favorite local spot so far! It's very safe, with a diverse environment of flowers and grasses and interesting things to smell, there is water available, and most of all lots of wide open space for the dogs to have fun and negotiate the rules of play. I'm so thankful for the opportunity to utilize such a nice space for my dogs social well being! Elise W.

55Beautiful property! Plenty of room for the dogs to run and sniff, and plenty of shade as well. Owner was kind enough to have a water bowl out, and a hose where it could be refilled too. Property is easy to find and the yard is easy to get in and out of. So glad to have this spot in Salem! Tiffany F.

55The location was very nice, lots of shade & a couple of chairs to sit in. The yard was very large & there was plenty of room for playing fetch! The hose was easy access & they had a water dish available to use. The host had poop bags available & a trash can out, so cleaning up after our dog was very convenient. 10/10, I’d highly recommend this spot if you need a little space for your pup to stretch their legs!

55Convenient location in a quiet neighborhood! The fences and yard are well maintained and there was lots of room for the dogs to run and romp. The host provided poop bags, convenient access to a trash can, and had three water bowls already filled for us plus access to a hose. We had a great time!!! I would definitely recommend this spot and hope to visit again soon! Bethany D.

FAQ about our Salem 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?
