55Great experience here! Trail is well marked and the field is a great spot for some fetch. Perfect place to practice recall without worrying about bumping into other dogs. We’ll definitely be back! Jenna P.

55This is a wonderful spot! The host put in a lot of effort to make entry and parking clear upon arrival. Excellent place for sniffing and training. We did see two dogs (I assume the neighbor’s) through the fence on one side of the field. It threw my pup off for a little bit, but wasn’t a big deal for usSamantha R.

55Nice, big open field. The signage was helpful and clear and the field is dry and well-maintained. There is a road that runs along one edge and is not fenced (partly blocked off by bushes), so could be an issue for dogs that do not have great recall. However, you could also just stay on the other half of the property and would be fine off leash. We did not see or hear any other dogs, did not see any animals. Overall, a great spot to let the dogs run and play, as advertised!Adam B.

55This is the type of place I prefer to take my dogs instead of the dog park! Beautiful location, lots of nice open space to let your dogs be dogs, and no other animals or people to worry about. I brought my 30ft longline since the space is not completely fenced, though I felt totally comfortable letting him drag it since the space is pretty secluded, spacious, and relatively low distraction for training. I LOVED that the host provided basically anything we could have needed! She included a map of the area, water, a bowl, lots of various toys, hand santizer and more. This was my first experience with Sniffspot and I am absolutely in love. Puppy Meadow Paradise is doing it right- we will be back for sure! Cass B.

55My dog Remy had a great time! He could do everything he loves- run, roll in grass,and then run some more. I liked how the boundaries of the property were marked by trees, blackberry etc, so that he couldnt really access them even if he wanted to. There were toys available but remy was way too busy running. There was a lot of water which i appreciated when we were done.
I dont have any complaints! Fyi the sign for the winery right next to them is easier to see before you drive past the sniffspot and they are right next to each other.
My dog had a great time and so did i! Megan S.

55The instructions to get there and park are perfectly clear. At arrival we found water, balls, a frisbee, poo bags, etc., more than you’d need. The place is spacious and setup for the dogs to have a blast. There is tons of space to run, play and sniff. There are chairs in the middle of the field to sit while the dogs sniff around. Our reactive dog was off leash the whole time and the fence available was sufficient. Even though there were dogs barking in the distance (as mentioned in the description), the hedge provided enough cover for our dog to feel at ease. I am grateful we got to use Michele’s space and would love to continue to visit. Best Sniffspot we’ve visited so far. Thank you for sharing!!!Daniel T.

55Such a fun place! It was exactly what we needed and the dogs loved every minute. The paths were perfect and it felt safe enough for all the dogs we had to be off leash and run around. Will go again for sure. Daisy M.

Christine's 2 Acre Partially Fenced Private Dog Park In Yacolt | Sniffspot
55We were the first visitors so Christine is still working out the logistics, but she was a wonderful communicator, put out fresh water and made sure we knew where we were supposed to park and go. It’s a great open field in a quiet spot. They have not mowed it yet (she let us know that before if we wanted to cancel, but we wanted to check it out). We look forward to coming back again.Courtney E.

55We loved the property and will definitely be back! Michele was a great host and provided water & a bowl (along with other dog toys) which was awesome because I was running late and forgot ours. I'm not sure who had more fun, our 2 dogs or our 3 year old daughter who picked a bouquet of dandelions 😂 and didn't want to leave "the dog park"Jesse J.

55Wow! This sniffspot was absolutely amazing and so beautiful. We saw seals!!!!

55This is by far the BEST sniff spot I’ve ever been to! Jessica and her husband were so helpful and kind when they showed us around the property. Our dog had an absolute BLAST! I’d recommend booking a few hours- we took an hour for the field side and an hour for the river side, and it was perfect. We will 200% be back! Elise D.

FAQ about our Silver Lake 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 Lake 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 100 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 10 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.
