Location

Happy Valley, Oregon

Description

Private Dog Park on 1+ Acres near Mt. Scott Creek: Just 5 minutes from Clackamas Town Center, our one-acre enclosed field offers open space, rolling hills, and the serene Mt. Scott Creek, which meanders through the property. The creek flows year-round—its levels dip in summer—and there are several spots where pups can wade and cool off on warm days. Please note: the creek is not fenced at both ends. Our field is pesticide-free and treated with all-natural diatomaceous earth in early spring and fall. While the creekside can get a bit muddy during winter, most of the property—especially the upper fields—remains dry year-round. Sniffin’ Hours: Monday to Sunday Spring & Summer: 8 AM – 7 PM Autumn & Winter: 8 AM – 4:30 PM During your visit, our two 5-year-old Doberman-Mastiff mixes will remain indoors so you and your pup can explore freely. Thanks for Sniffin’ at our Spot! —Daniel & Family

Cleanliness

Hazards

HOST NOTE

Deck boards may become slippery during snowy weather. The stairs leading to the bridge are steep, but you can release your dog safely at the wooden gate. Some sloped areas and pathways can be uneven and slick, especially when wet, while the higher fields remain flat and dry year-round. Parts of the trail near the creek and foothills are narrow—please use caution, and we recommend wearing hiking shoes.

Water safety notice

Make sure to practice dog and human safety around water. Read more

For your convenience, there are white metal bins located by the creek and in the upper field for disposing of dog waste and trash.

Priceless to us when pups are having fun and exploring the surroundings at our Spot. My wife and I have lived on this property since 1993. Looking forward to sharing our Spots with you.

Season alert: dandelions are blooming which means bees. This is some of the first food for spring bees, so we often leave them. There will likely be a bee visiting the flowers around the yard from spring through summer. Gate to enter on Bull Mountain Rd, on the northwest side of the property. We have a fun cattle gate that slides open. Duck your head and walk on up a wooden boardwalk to the backside of our yard. The fenced in area includes all of the backyard up to the landscaped area next to the house. Feel free to roam and run across the back section. This is stick-topia. A stick for every pup that wants one. Feel free to take one home with you We will compost the dog waste, please just scoop up the poo with the provided shovel and add to the bucket. We will take it from there. There's a swing for humans, please enjoy. I am working on building a nice little shelter, but for now enjoy the cover the beautiful Douglas fir trees provide.
