55The dogs had a great time running and exploring the property! The back side is definitely marshy coming out of wet Washington winters, so bring your boots and a towel to dry the dogs off, and plan on a bath that day. But what's a little mud for an hour of running fun! The place is partially fenced, with areas that dogs could get out if you had a runner with no recall, but it's so wide open you're able to easily recall your dogs before getting out of the spot. We really enjoyed our hour there, wandering the beautiful property and allowing our dogs to just be dogs!Amanda D.

55Dogs had so much fun running around and exploring. The bottom half of the property had standing water/pond like area that two of my dogs just had a blast running through. It was very cute to watch them get the zoomies through the area. Natasha K.

55Lots of mostly flat, wide open space to play! There's also nice places for humans to sit and enjoy the landscape. The unfenced portion of the spot opens onto the road so that's something to consider if you're concerned about your dog escaping. My dog doesn't like to wander too far away so this was no problem for us but I can see how it might make others a little wary. Karen D.

55Beautiful, quiet area with lots of space to run and explore! Host was super responsive when I had a question during the visit. Info provided in listing is accurate, we had no issues with the partial fencing around the entry area. We really enjoyed our visit!Annika S.

55SO much space to run and play, our pup loved rolling around the grass and taking in all the new sniffs. The space is flat and open, so peaceful. Clear signage and instructions from host. The chickens were so cute and we all enjoyed looking at them. Partially fenced off the road, dogs with good recall and who stay close should be fine. Our dog's been sleeping the whole day away after our visit!fiona c.

55Wide open field to let the pup run! As others have mentioned, this site is best for dogs with a solid recall because it’s not fully fenced and its proximity to the road is close. We are marking this one as one of our favorite spots to book.S S.

55It was our first time using sniffspot and my girl had such a blast! She loved running thru the tall soft grass with the morning dew on it :)
Also she has never seen a chicken before, so that was a hoot to witness! 10/10 experience! Sarah S.

55This was our first time at Ham Lake Sniffspot and we’ll definitely be back! It’s easy to find, toy bin and trash can behind the barn and fresh water put out by host. The lake was more of a mid pit but my dog isn’t much for water so it didn’t bother us. There is mole hole mounds, fruit trees and goose poop, luckily my dog ignored it for once because he was having too much fun running around! I had read it was partially fenced and I do want to warn people there is no fence at all between the “main” road and the property. The grass area is behind the barn and garage so it’s easy enough to keep them from the road. Something to be mindful of though!Whitney G.

55We’ll definitely be back! My dogs loved playing fetch for the entire 90 minutes with plenty of room to run. Jessica put out a fresh bowl of water before we arrived, which was very thoughtful. Kaytlyn B.

55My two large doggos absolutely loved it! It was a beautiful property with water and plenty of land for them to run through. My dogs especially liked sniffing the chicken through a fence and my younger one tried to play with it 😂 We will definitely be back!Jamie A.

55Large, long space for ample running and ball chasing. If it has been even a bit rainy, make sure to bring good boots and towel or two as there are many spots where the water pools up to a few inches and my kids couldn't help themselves but to splash through them all!
As noted, fencing is not secure but unless you have a dog looking to escape, it's a fine place as the incline is a natural "barrier."Braeden A.

55Our dog Luna had an amazing time. She is a reactive dog so to have somewhere she can play and expel her energy without us having to worry about other dogs or distractions was great. The toy box was a lovely addition,Luna loved playing fetch with the toys provided. We came home with one happy and muddy pup! Will definitely be visiting again,thank you Jessica. Charlotte K.

FAQ about our Hoodsport 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 Hoodsport area range from $4.0 and $4.0. The least expensive dog field is Your Fenced Mini-Meadow in Fremont. The most expensive dog field is Your Fenced Mini-Meadow in Fremont. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
