55This was such a great spot to hang out! Super clean and solid shoreline with a mix of fast/slow/shallow/deep water; we were able to play fetch without the ball getting swept downstream, and there was plenty of really well kept grass to play on as well.
I was a little anxious about not having a fence, but there’s a border of tall grass and the spot is private enough and set far enough away from distractions that I was able to keep my dog’s attention on the water and sticking close, and it was great practice for his recall. There were some neighbor dogs that you could hear but not see, so this probably isn’t a good fit for a reactive or runner dog. Kathryn J.

55What a nice spot on a hot summer day!! Ample shade, chairs, even a long tie-out for the pups to roam but still be on a lead. Bugs and ticks are around, but it’s July in the mountains. :) Our pup had a blast.Susannah A.

55This place is absolutely amazing! Definitely planning to come back before cold weather comes back to town! Our shepherds absolutely loved it. One is an old guy with bad hips and it was the perfect spot for him to relax and walk around, he even got a chance to get into the water! It was a perfect spot for us to get our young dogs acclimated to swimming safely. Did not have to worry about random dogs and place us VERY VERY clean. One thing I’d say is make sure your dog is on monthly tick prevention, we did find several on us and the dogs which is 100% out of everyone’s control this time of year! Definitely recommend this spot to everyone!!Kala R.

55This little oasis is a bit hard to find and the driveway going in is pretty rough, but once you get there it’s totally worth it. The creek has a few patches deep enough for dogs to swim, and a lot of more shallow spots that they can play in even if they don’t like going in all the way. We did almost get one of our big Jolly balls lost in a copse of sticks, but in the end we were able to fish it out with a long enough stick. Definitely bring bug spray and make sure your pups are up to date on tick meds; even my husband ended up with a couple ticks. Still, the view is amazing and the location is serene and wonderful. Thanks for sharing it, Maddi! Mary C.

55We loved our time at The Green Door! Charlie and Honey both got to enjoy their favorite pastimes. Charlie could chase the ball while Honey went on a scavenger hunt around the yard! LOL! Chris greeted us to make sure we were doing alright and had all our beeds met before we even got there. Honey particularly loved the special treat he left for her! I am sure we will go back again. Thanks Chris.Donna M.

55Alice and Finley had a great time exploring all the different areas in the yard. Chris is a terrific, generous host and we appreciated the fresh water, the dog safe toys and balls, and different places to perch while watching the dogs sniff and run. We'll definitely be back!Beth S.

55Bella and I LOVED our trip to this Sniffspot! It was better than described. The area was bigger than I thought with tons of plants and different types of grass and clover and dirt… there were hills she could climb and also plenty of flat surfaces. There was shade and sun. There were so many fun toys, plenty of balls to throw and stuffed toys too. Lots of lovely wind chimes throughout the area was a nice touch. There was also lots of great seating options! Not to mention the care you could tell the owners put in to the details: we had a personal note with a treat to get started, there was a full bowl of (cold) water waiting on us, and a small cooler with waters for us humans, they had bags for poop, treats, toys, balls, even bug spray! All organized very nicely. You could really feel the love they put in to making this place special. Also, easy private parking and entrance through the gate. I will 100% be returning and would strongly recommend this spot to anyone interested. Thanks so much to The Green Door Private Dog Park!Annie H.

55The entire experience here was so thoughtful. Jun loved chasing all the tennis balls and sniffing out the various toys. The space was perfect; I felt like I could see her from almost anywhere but the terrain was still varied enough to keep it interesting for her. She got so tired running up and down the hill! This is such a gem and I’m sure we’ll be back! Heather P.

55Our dogs loved the opportunity to run around off leash among trees and other interesting features. The space has a significant grade to it, but this added extra exercise for my high energy dogs (running up and down the hill). The owner was very nice and even left treats and water for the pups.Shay S.

FAQ about our Weaverville 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 Weaverville 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 66 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 9 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.
