55What a great oasis! My dog is pretty sensitive to sounds, especially other dogs, and this was perfect for us. So many good sniffs, rocks to climb, and toys to play with. We will absolutely be back here!!Kaitlyn E.

55Outstanding Sniffspot! My Lolli really enjoyed all the nooks and crannies to explore here. The space was lovely and fully fenced to keep my 90lb monster safely contained. Pro-tip, wear sensible shoes as it is all sloped, but both Lolli and I will sleep good tonight…and we will certainly be back! Tj S.

55Loved this spot! There were tons of things for the dog to smell, lots of rocks to explore, and the hosts even left out toys and water. We would definitely visit again!Nicole T.

55We always have a great time here. My dogs love running up and down the hill and digging in the soft dirt. Bonus is that they’re tired the rest of the day!Vickie C.

55Not only is the owner incredibly effective at communicating but you can tell she cares about her area. Well fenced in, no gaps or holes, plenty of dog toys as well as water for your pup. Overall the best time my dog has had in a while. I will definitely be coming back and I recommend this spot to everybody.Megan M.

55What a beautiful place! The landscaping was a treat for both humans and dogs. We took their advice to wear sneakers because of the terrain, so walking down and back up their little hill was fine. Thanks for having us!Cris L.

55Our dogs had a great time here. It is hilly so just be prepared footwear-wise. Our dogs seemed to love the hills, though, and ran around like mad. Spot was easy to find. We went early in the AM so shade wasn’t an issue but there is a shady spot with water for pups and chairs for people. We’ll

FAQ about our Big Bear 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Big Bear 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 302 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 27 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.
