55This spot was wonderful! Two enclosed areas that you can move between with ease through a gated area. The host also left a handwritten note, dog treats, and towels in the covered area. It didn’t rain during our visit but this enclosed area with chairs would be awesome for rainy days. Everything was closed off and perfect for my Aussie and Rottweiler to run around.Kylie W.

55This spot is a good one for our reactive dog. No other animals are visible or audible. The large space is big enough for large dogs to run at full speed. Fences are secure. We'll be back.Karl O.

55Area A was perfect for my Doberman and Pitty. My dobe loves chasing a ball and having a yard large enough to throw the ball without worrying about it going over a fence was wonderful. Dogs had a blast and will certainly be back! The only thing I would suggest is a trash can for poop disposal but everything else was great! Signage was also very clear and helpful! Megan E.

55This was our first time using Sniffspot and it was such a great experience! My pups had a lot of fun running around, sniffing and just enjoying the land! We just walked laps around the property and my pups were exhausted afterwards! Definitely recommending to friends! :)
It is fenced with some barbed wire just an fyi Jillian C.

55This was my first time using Sniffspot and I think it went well. I backed in right in front of the gate and the dogs went right into the area to explore. Make sure you bring water for the pups. My dogs had a great time running through the field and sniffing through the trees. There isn’t a garbage to drop poop bags so be prepared to take them with you. Kami B.

55Great spot! Lots of space, pup jumped in water for the first time when she saw a duck and swam right back out. Haha.
The gate that you enter through is right next to the mailbox that you are directed to park by.
More comfortable now that we understand where there are and are not fences; will visit again and explore more. Jessica M.

55Really beautiful, wide open spot! Lake is lovely. We saw a ton of rough skinned newts, which was really cool but be aware that they are poisonous, so don’t let your dog eat them! Spot is also only partially fenced, but our dogs stayed close and have excellent recall. Highly recommend.Aitana S.

55Great spot! The ground is pretty uneven in a lot of areas, but still really nice. It was nice for my dog to be able to run free and not have to worry about him or running into other dogs. I was a little confused about where I was allowed to go. But we’ll be returning soon for sure!Mara T.

55Just what I wanted! I big field right off the highway for my big dogs to run free. Accurate description and clear instructions. I did not see or hear another person or animal the entire time I was there. It was great! Adam S.

55We had an absolutely amazing time here.. For the first 2 hours. (we paid for 3) but on our last hour a neighbor starting shooting off their gun constantly and absolutely scared our dog, she is extremely gun shy and ran straight out of the area to our truck and waited for us under it cowering and shaking. It was quite sad since she had an amazing time prior. If your dogs dont have fear of gun shots I'd say it's a pup paradise!
Other than that, space was plentiful, the fields were amazing, and we even had some forest to explore, and the pond was perfect, especially when it gets hot out! We got some amazing pictures before the shots happened. I could definently see us coming back to try and leave on a good note next time.Miranda H.

55This was so wonderful for my dog and I felt safe knowing it was somewhat “fenced” in. Absolutely worth it and such a beautiful property. We will be back! Marie D.

55This is the best place near Salem for a reactive dog. We've taken our dog here 20-25 times (under my husband's sniffspot account) and we've only seen other dogs there once, when some people parked nearby and walked their dogs up the road.
There are gopher and mole holes in the field but neither we nor our dog have tripped over them.
It's a nice big space. The pond water looks gross but our dog drinks from it and doesn't get sick.

55This was our first visit to a Sniffspot. My dog & I really appreciate the individual reservations so there’s little chance of running into other dogs. Hidden Lake Ranch has lots of room to run & sniff. We’ll be back!Morgan G.

55Hostess was so nice when I called for directions (navigation took me one step too far) and the location was perfect! Big open field for running, the area to the pond has a little trail which my dog loves and she found the pond to be a fun place to explore. We will definitely be regulars here! Krista A.

FAQ about our Aumsville dog fields
Are dog fields safe?
If you are looking for an adventure, but also looking for safety, Sniffspot dog fields are a great option. While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, distracted dog owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private space for just you and doggy friends you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). Especially for training, privacy is ideal. Contrary to public dog parks, all Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog for off leash exercise or outdoor training. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars, while public dog parks often do not even have verified reviews. All payment is done securely online by credit card in a few simple clicks.
All park rental information is available online. Start by filtering parks by fencing, size and distractions, to find a private spot that works for your dog. If your dog has poor recall, you can visit one of our secure fields. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog fields where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can review the details of the listing to make sure it works as your desired activity space, for example, safe dog exercise, dog training, a stress-free adventure with your furry friend or even a puppy event. You can even check the park amenities chart for amenities such as indoor training facilities, agility field, synthetic turf, exercise balls or field parking availability in advance. If inclement weather is an issue or poor field conditions, you can reschedule your visit up to 2 hours in advance.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog field?
We require that all four-legged friends have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Make sure to check host rules before visiting to ensure, for instance, that you are following allowable sports activities rules and any special events rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot field at the same time as me?
No. Facility rentals are for private play time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the area during visits, so this is perfect for a private adventure for you and your doggie friends, and perhaps a human friend. Hosts understand that many guests have dogs in training and are nervous owners. So when you book a Sniffspot dog field you have the entire private spot to yourself. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between time slots so you will not run into other guest dogs or a previous person when coming or leaving in the field parking area. Some hosts may have multiple fields, but there is always a buffer between fields.
How much do Sniffspot fields cost?
Dog fields in the Aumsville area range from $6.0 and $6.0. The least expensive dog field is Healthy bodies, healthy minds!. The most expensive dog field is Healthy bodies, healthy minds!. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
