55Gorgeous spot. My dog got a lot of running in and he was tired before the full hour was out. We saw and heard a couple of dogs across the road very briefly but the owner quickly called them and put them up. Also saw and heard the livestock guardian dog mentioned but it was far off in the corner and once you’re inside the fenced area - you can’t see it and it stopped barking. My dog didn’t have a problem with it even though he is reactive to dogs. I recommend this spot for people with reactive dogs - very beautiful and relaxing place.Linn D.

55Had a great time there, very clean, easy to find, a lot of great space for dogs to run and sniff. Theres sun and shade areas. A great place to escape from Portland for a little while and let the dog run and play fetch. Charles G.

55On February 4 we visited with 3 dogs and they had a great time. We arrived a few minutes early but the field was empty so we started early and left early. There were a few toys in the field that the dogs loved, especially the fireman’s toy! Thanks. Appreciated the garbage can and hand sanitizer! We picked up a few stray poop so they only thing missing at this lovely place was extra poop bags so make sure to bring your own. Great place. We have visited twice and will be back! Thank you!Linda G.

55Good amount of space to let your dog roam while being securely fenced in. There is also fresh water which is very nice! My dogs had a great time and we will be back!!Lonnie J.

55Exactly as described. Easy to find, fully fenced, could hear other dogs, and see dogs across the street but that was no big deal for my pup. Lots of places to sniff and run. Nice picnic table in the middle Emily W.

55Such a great spot! My big dog loved running around. It was pouring rain today and wasn’t muddy at all. Easy to find, great parking, and love having trees to play hide n seek behind. Chelsea M.

55I love coming to this Sniffspot, I’ve been with my family before with their dogs and it was my turn to take my dog and he loved it, as well as his best friend! They got so tired and had to take a couple breaks cause the amount of land is perfect! Love that’s it’s fully fenced as well cause I have a lab who loves to play the chase game and not come back to me if there is no fences. Lol!!Brittney B.

FAQ about our Smith River 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. 0% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Smith River 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 1 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 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.
