55Great amount of space and amenities for humans and dogs. Fully fenced in and lots of room to play fetch. Easy parking and entrance. It’s right off the main road so it can be a little loud. Claire A.

55Clean and spacious. We had a great time. There's lots to explore and my doggo preferred the provided water over his own bowl! We didn't see or hear any other dogs but the traffic is pretty loud (just noting if your dog is sensitive to that). I would recommend this sniffspot to anyone Gabriela M.

55Gorgeous large yard for dogs of any size to run around in! Tons of shade from a big tree, tons of sunlight to soak in, tons of seating options. Be sure to bring your own frisbee, balls and toys to play with. We had a great time and might make this our weekly spot! My pup wore out all of her energy, thank you!Autumn H.

55Amazing, lush, green yard that my dogs absolutely loved making their own! They just couldn't get enough of the freshness! Lots of bounding back and forth, stretching in the grasss, with plenty of spots to sniff near and far! I was able to hear dogs in a distant yard with some barking back and forth, but only for a short period. Would recommend and will be back!Sara T.

55Beautiful shady yard - we had a great time. Very secure - for escape artists like ours we had to keep an eye on the 4’ fence in the front and the 4’ fence in the back southwest corner behind the more wild trees/bushes/flowers area. Favorite new sniff spot! Thank you, Laura!Erin B.

FAQ about our Golden 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 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 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.
