55First time using sniffspot. Host communicated well, very considerate, helpful, friendly. Easy going. The hike downward to stream was kind of steep. But definitely worth it. So relaxing, fresh, we loved it. Our dogs had a great time. Very safe. Beautiful. Host offered to pick us up if walking back was too rough. It was we are out of shape. The ride back was fun. This spot is definitely recommended. Rhonda R.

55We had the best time today! I have a high drive dog, so dog parks are places that we stay away from and my dog needs space and room to run free. She loves off leash hikes but its hard to find places to do that. I am so glad I found this place! My dog could run free and my my teens/tween had an equally fantastic time. They loved the creek! My kids could be kids and my dog could be a dog without worrying about other dogs or people. We would definitely book again. Thank you so much!Rebecca B.

55While on an out of town trip for a scentwork competition this weekend we wanted to take our three dogs for a hike. Not knowing the local area or which public hiking trails were over crowded or unsafe we chose to rent this wonderful Sniffspot. I really appreciated that clear instructions sent ahead of time for finding the property, including photos! The host called right when I arrived and gave directions to the trail. The dogs had a blast racing up and down the trail and playing in the creek. Thanks so much for sharing your property with us! We hope to return next time we’re in town! Aryn H.

55Had such a good time on my second visit to this sniff spot. This time I took my anxious/ reactive dog with me because I felt safe bringing him there after my first visit. He had the time of his life, and I felt safe having him there. I booked the time slot without too much notice, and Alma and David were kind and accommodating, and made me and my dogs feel safe. I can't wait to go back Tara n.

55This place was my dogs Disneyland. My dog doesn’t do well with rude dogs and unfortunately where I live there are a lot. It was SO nice to have the place to ourselves to explore without the worry of running into others. It’s is absolutely beautiful! Tons of room to run, hills, trees and of course an amazing stream and beach area to play in. (Pay for the stream hike) Totally worth the trip and the extra. There’s a swing, hammock and a picnic bench. Bring a lunch and enjoy! So thankful they share their property for my pup to enjoy his best life! Theresa L.

55My pup has a blast at Choice Avocados! He loves to roam and explore and was able to do that, and more! We chose a 2 hour excursion plus access to the creek. It was a great relief for him to cool off in the fresh flowing waters. There is a lot of hiking trails with beautiful views. I felt safe within the property having him off leash. Will definitely go again!Natalie P.

55Def worth the money! So if you are on the fence about reserving this spot, I am telling you… do it! And reserve the creek!! I promise it is worth every penny. Me and my sister and the 4 puppies loved it! And will come back!
Also pay attention to directions given by host. Me and my sister did not (we both just followed gps in the car) and definitely ended up in an extremely bumpy dirt road to arrive. Our bad. There is a gate that we needed to turn into and it was a whole lot easier to go through that route. Brigette B.

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. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines.

How do I know if a dog water park works for my dog?

If your dog is not a strong swimmer, then perhaps choose a dog water park with tamer water features rather than a river or beach, for instance. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
