55What a lovely spot! The manicured trail was beautiful! It was very quiet and we felt very safe. We also loved the educational posters about the native plants/trees. I booked 2 hours thinking we’d get lost on the game trails but they had a bit too many brambles for exploration. So we were done in just over an hour. Still very much worth the drive and tranquility! I’ll definitely be back with my big camera for some fun dog portraits! Carol W.

55We had the best time. The main trail is wide and clear and the dogs enjoyed romping on all the smaller side trails. One hour was just right with a half an hour each way taking our time. I am excited to go back.Tina P.

55What a lovely spot! Great walking trail with lots of woods to explore. Our dog had a blast sniffing and exploring. Even in the rain, the trail was well maintained, but definitely wear good boots for the wet season to help navigate some mud and puddles. Michelle H.

55Dogs and I enjoyed this spot, trail was nice and wide, not too much incline for my senior dog. Had some shady areas to help with the heat, host had water available at both gates.Susan G.

55This is a beautiful trail tucked away where you and your pup(s) can walk, run and play in peace.
The trail has two entrance options, both of which are clearly marked and is wide enough for multiple dogs and a game of fetch.
At both the entrance and exit, the hosts thoughtfully set out water jugs with a large size bowl in case you need one. There are also waste bags complete with a covered disposal bucket so you can ride home aroma free. So appreciated.
We had a great time and would definitely recommend this peaceful location! Jen M.

55This was a really neat trail to walk. Beautiful and lots of birds to listen too. Well maintained. It has a little mud in some places from when it rains, but we like mud. Alexis S.

55Very nice trail! Well maintained and beautiful, lots of smells for the pups. Path is mostly wide and grassy, so also good for playing ball. Host has left poop bags, garbage can, and water for dogs which was a nice touch! We did hear a dog barking throughout our stay and a loud boom or two (gunshot/firework?). My dogs were unbothered thoughCeleste D.

552nd time here, this time in the evening. Just as peaceful as in the morning! I thought there might be more mud due to the recent rain but was pleasantly surprised there was only one puddle, with enough room on the trail that it was easily walked around. Love this quiet spot!Erika U.

FAQ about our Oak Harbor small dog parks
Are small 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 are 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 park users so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars.
How can I find small dog parks in Oak Harbor?
There are 112 small dog parks in the Oak Harbor area. The most popular small dog park is . You can browse all of our small dog parks here.
How do I know if a small dog park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your furry friends. If your dog doesn't respond to owner commands, you can visit one of our enclosed dog park areas. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our small dog park sites where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can see any park amenities provided, including a park bench, water for dogs or water features such as kiddie pool or water hose. If your dog loves water, you can go to a park with water features, but if they don't love water, you can avoid them. We also recommend reading reviews to check for park maintenance issues and reaching out to the host with any questions. And lastly, of course, check park hours. Many of our parks are open from dawn until dusk.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that owners sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. We also require that pet owners follow safety protocols around water features.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot park at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
If you are planning an amazing small dog park party, each Sniffspot park has their own rules regarding special events. Many parks allow doggie birthday parties, training, water parties and other event types. Event organizers need to be responsible for their guests and event organizers should coordinate with the host regarding their fun party. Make sure the park has amenities you need for your party, such as a park with lots of picnic tables with park benches.
