55Great spot. My dog usually refuses to go walk around unless I go with him. This spot has mowed grass and a couple different areas to sit, one with partial shade in the afternoon and a nice pergola that provides full coverage. Fresh water for dogs, bags, and bins. We will return.Clara M.

55This is a beautiful spot. Easy to find. Fairly level field with great views and places to sit. We saw horses and heard chickens. If you visit in the morning wear something to keep your feet dry in the grass. Nicely maintained with plenty of roam for our dogs to run. Jack, Buddy and I will definitely be back. Denise B.

55Lovely property for dogs to run and explore. Mostly flat and level with full sun exposure. There are some nice trees along the road (east) side of the property and a pergola near the middle to provide some shade when needed. Bob R.

55Once again a great time at Rover’s Ranch Run. Our dogs always have a fabulous time. One of the Corgis got a little overheated from fetching balls. It was quite warm. A little water and rest and all is well.
Cannot recommend this SniffSpot enough!!Carol S.

55It is "weed seed" season, and there are plenty in this open field, even though it is well mowed. But, it is worth a bit of extra brushing to enjoy the dog's run and play. The addition of even more chairs for us humans is nice too! We'll be back!Shirley W.

55It is a great place; it is big, clean, and has a shaded sitting area. Parking is easy. My only concern was the proximity to the horses. The fence was wide enough for my dog to put her head through and smell the horse, and I was worried she would bite the horse. Nothing happened, but I kept my dog on a long leash out of caution.

FAQ about our Hidden Valley Lake dog parks
Are dog parks good for dogs?
It is important for dogs to have off leash exercise to sniff and run. But the free and open nature of public dog parks has drawbacks. There could be aggressive dogs, disease transmission and cleanliness issues. For this reason, many dog behaviorists discourage visiting public dog parks and recommend Sniffspot's private dog parks. Sniffspot private dog parks only allow one guest to book at a time and are not open to the public, which solves many of these issues.
