55Well maintained and beautiful property! It has a nice open field, perfect for fetch. It's got a good slant that wore out my pups as they were fetching up hill. They have water and trash available, and a ball thrower. Megan M.

55We had a wonderful time exploring the large field and woods at Amanda’s. The grounds were impeccably clean. There was water and extra bags and even some dog toys. This Sniffspot is very private at the end of a deadend road/driveway. We were able to run and play without worrying about other dogs or people. Very private. Thank you Amanda for providing such a great place! We will definitely come back.Catherine K.

55Pretty and private, dogs had a blast! Felt a bit smaller than I expected from the listing, mostly because we weren’t 100% sure if/where we were allowed to explore outside of the field and we didn’t want to risk running into any surprise people or dogs. Tons of well-maintained space for running and fetch if that’s what your dog loves. We did find some steep, muddy trails in the woods that our dogs had fun zooming up and down.Emily P.

55This spot was wonderful! The open field was perfect to practice obedience/frisbee/ and overall just a chance for my pup to explore. It was clean and quiet. I only heard one dog way off in the distant. Perfect for my reactive dog! Hailey R.

55Beautiful area. Dogs had a blast. I wouldn’t recommend going if your dog doesn’t have good recall, but she does offer the long leads for those that aren’t. We will be back!!Jennifer S.

55This was our first time using Sniffspot and I’m fairly certain one day of the best days of my dogs life. She had such a blast and we will absolutely be back. It was great to have water/toys/towels all waiting for us and the location was beautiful.Charlotte S.

55We had a few hiccups - gate was closed when I got there, I had no reception so had to drive to a spot where I had a few bars. And there were cars driving up and down the driveway while we were there, so I had to make sure and keep my dog away from that area. There were also a few people on the property visiting the owners, causing their dog to bark. I thought that was a bit odd during the time I booked the place, but that did allow me to get some good engagement training in! Overall, the place was fun to explore for my dog, and I got to tire him out playing fetch on the slope. Oh, at the bottom of the field there is a trail that goes to another house. I had no idea until we got closer, and then we turned around. Would be nice to have a sign or something down there to mark the property line :) Chantalle v.

55Wow this was so great! Plenty of room for your dog to run and play. They also had dog treats, toys, water and water bowls, which was such a thoughtful touch. The only thing is that it’s definitely not securely fenced so if your dog is a runner it might not be a good fit. My dog is super clingy was it wasn’t an issue! Anissa C.

55We love this spot! The trails were fun to explore and the hillside is great for fetch! I have a reactive dog and I felt totally comfortable letting him run free. I really appreciate the water bowls, garbage, extra balls and treats. The signs are clear and the grass was short. Amanda was so nice and accommodating. We will be back for sure! Lindsey A.

55My dogs loved it! We saw a deer! My nervous, reactive dogs loved the open field and all wood smells. It was so nice and quiet that they actually took a settle break in between sniff sessions. The sign for parking was great. We couldn’t find the trail but the field was perfect. My dog could not stop doing happy rolls in the grass.Melissa A.

55Had a great first visit. Place was easy to find. I appreciated that they had the field mowed pretty short. It is a sloping area surrounded by dense brush and trees. Very peaceful. Wendy W.

FAQ about our Amboy dog hiking trails
Are dog hiking trails safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than a city or county park. With a Sniffspot off-leash area 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. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. Our hiking trails tend to be outside the city, which lends to more privacy, but it is also important to follow typical hiking safety precautions, such as potentially having trail maps.
How do I know if a dog hiking trail works for my dog?
Sniffspot provides the tools to find the ideal spot. Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing 6 feet tall and distractions, to find a dog park with trails that works for your dog. You can also filter by size if you are looking for a certain acre park, an expansive off-leash dog park. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog hiking trails. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog hiking trails where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Since you are looking for trails, make sure to check photos to see if it the spot has flat trails or gnarly trails. You can also browse by specific amenities, if you are looking for a view or a beach, for instance, or other activities or fun features. You can check whether the spot has off or on street parking, the regular park hours, whether it has paved trails or a modern restroom.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog hiking trail?
In order to hike the trails, we require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not permit dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot hiking trail 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.
How much do Sniffspot hiking trails cost?
