55Barb's land is like having your own private mountain to hike on. Since it is private land you will be the only one on it. The trees are huge and there are a network of paths to hike. I found a few view points with beautiful views. Soba had a great time exploring around and seeing a new place. The property is not fully fenced, but I had no concerns letting her run free and explore. Next time I come I am going to bring a picnic and a few friends and have a picnic while our dogs explore!David A.

55What a perfect sniff spot!!! Beautiful area and such a large area for the dogs to roam. Great place to practice recall too. We will definitely be back, what a treat. Water available on site too! Madeline H.

55This was an excellent place for our pups to explore and run around. The main road has different options for trails to follow and they looped back around to the main road which is nice. Would definitely come back here again!Kara S.

55Great, huge space for exploring! It’s such a big property and our energetic pup had a fun time bounding up and down the main trail and exploring the off-shoot trails. We had the best time!Karen L.

55It was a nice day for a walk in the woods. Dogs had a great time running, sniffing and exploring. A few pesky insects but not bad. It was warm so the dappled shade of the trees was appreciated. Kristen D.

55This is a wonderful Sniffspot! It’s very private and large with lots of interesting terrain to explore. I felt very comfortable walking my dog leash free - it was very quiet and peaceful, and there wasn’t another house in sight. There is one wide trail with many other trail offshoots. Some of these are quite narrow right now, much like a game trail, due to the summer foliage and tall grass. Even so, they are very easy to traverse. The hosts have a done a nice job of marking the main trails with arrows and Sniffspot signs to give you good sense of direction. Christine was very communicative too. Since it was our first time at this spot, I messaged her with a question during our visit and she responded right away. I didn’t have any trouble my cell service either as one other review had mentioned. I have T-Mobile which appears to have good coverage in the area. All in all, I highly recommend this spot for reactive dogs like mine, and for all other hounds. Thanks Christine for sharing your property with us!Bonnie B.

55Very beautiful and peaceful place. My Daisy enjoyed herself immensely. I’ve never seen the smile on her snout so big. It was a great place to take a leisurely walk with my husband and just enjoy the day. We also saw some beautiful deer! We will definitely be back. Thank you for the hospitality and providing a beautiful place to enjoy with my girl.

55Absolutely loved this place. It was very big and lots of great hiking. Definitely wear good shoes or boots and long pants and shirts though. It is the woods. Most of the trails were on the smaller size and lots of brush to walk through but definitely worth it. We had loads of fun. Definitely will rent again. Amanda S.

55Excellent places for both my girls. One love to run and explore and she had a lot of room to do that. The other just likes a leisurely walk with me while she sniffs around. Craig/Diana B.

55This is a wonderful new Sniff Spot! The trail that Christine has marked out is beautiful -- and at this time of year was full of wildflowers. There is plenty of shade on Christine's property, which makes it a great place to visit in the summer. I am sure there are many more places to explore and would like to go back. We had a delightful time.
Christine is very friendly and responsive -- this Sniff Spot has great promise!
Please note that there is very poor (or non-existent) cell phone coverage on some of the roads near the property, so don't count on being able to use it to get directions. My GPS was up and running on the way into the property (lots of turns on country roads), but it failed on the way out.

55We had such a great time meandering through
The forest! We mostly stuck to the larger trails as we have an elderly dog who has a hard time with varying terrains but all 3 dogs had the best time! Don’t forget bug spray though!
This Sniffspot is an absolutely incredible gift. The dogs had an easy time staying on the trails and there was plenty to explore!
Thank you so very, very much for sharing your beautiful property with us! Carrie R.

55Such a great space! Very secluded and the lack of fencing is not an issue due to the forest. Lots of little trails off the old logging road to explore. We will definitely be back!Jenn J.

55The thoughtfulness of this spot is well beyond 5 stars. You literally can’t find better hosts! Our profile says “Sniffspots are our date nights” and it was just the sweetest surprise to find two chairs along a particularly picturesque part of the trail with sparkling cider and wine glasses! We had a GREAT time and the dogs are all snuggled in fast asleep after a MUCH needed run and sniff.
We were warned about water ahead of time and it was, in fact, soggy but it didn’t at all dampen our time and there was plenty high ground for the dogs to explore. Carrie R.

55Literally such a treasure we have found!!!! It is the cutest little adventure spot! The trail is nice and well maintained! It offers SO many smells for your pup! Our golden boy and human boy loved running and splashing and lying down in the mud! I loved how everything was well marked, and the sniffspot locations were clear. The host also had plenty of poop bags available and trash cans as well! We LOVED this location so much. We live less than 10 min away, and the golden boy fell asleep on the way home! We will definitely be returning! Hyebin D.

FAQ about our Silver Creek 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. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Silver Creek 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 93 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 15 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.
