55This a great spot! Fully fenced in and a lot to do, and not just for the dogs. We will definitely be coming back. If your dogs aren’t friendly with other dogs I would just make sure to mention it since there is a dog who lives on the property. But we had no issues with that the dog didn’t even come up to us and kept to herself. But I would keep that in mind. But it’s a fantastic spot! Highly recommend Sarina C.

Our dog loved this place so much to do and so much land to run around. The host was very nice I loved that there was a sink to wash hands and fill his water bowl. Raelissa T.

55Great spot, well maintained & lots to sniff and explore. Pond for swimming if your dog is into that. Friendly host. Calm friendly senior dog on the way in the driveway (pull around to the left of the house through the gate for parking). Did not see her in the fenced pond area, but it wouldn't have been a problem for my dog; more likely she would have annoyed the resident dog trying to play! We'll be back. Michele S.

55Brought our three dogs out for a run and they had a blast! Two of our dogs are reactive and it was a very safe space for them to have some fun and freedom. Property is beautiful and well kept. Will definitely be coming again! Taber B.

55This was my first time using Sniffspot, and we will definitely come back! There is ample space, it’s well-fenced, and well-maintained. The foxtails are even few and far between, if such things are a concern for your dog. My dog does not like water, but even she enjoyed the smells of the pond and the wildlife it attracted.Samantha C.

55This was the perfect spot to bring the dogs ! All fenced in with a pond so if your dog likes to swim, remember those towels:) I will be recommending this spot to all of my friends who have dogs but don’t want the hassle of a dog park. Adrianna R.

55My doggos had such an amazing time here! Perfect amount of shade and walking trails. The host was very friendly and guided us to the correct parking spot (remember to drive all the way back until you see the sign). I would suggest taking older leashes/harnesses, as they’ll need a good wash after some play time in the pond and dirt. Also, don’t forget your baggies for dog waste. Overall, I would highly recommend! Marisa T.

55One hour of pure bliss for my pup Molly! She ran her legs off around the pond chasing ducks, frogs, birds, and watching a neighbor's fishing techniques. This is city-close but the experience was 100% country ambience and friendliness. I couldn't have asked for a more relaxing experience for both my pup and myself. Kim U.

55Rogue had a blast here. She loved popping in and out of the pond and running all around. Multiple barge type tie outs and she explored each one. There were a variety of ducks in the pond but my girl did not bother them. Bring multiple towels as your dog will get pretty muddy after being in the water. I would definitely use this location again!Cas L.

55A hidden gem! We took our 3 boys, they loved running around and jumping in the pond. The water hose came in handy for fresh drinking water and to wash them off after a good swim. Will be returning soon! Puppy P.

55Great location, close to the freeway and main roads. Lots for both my dogs to do and places for humans to sit, could easily spend a few hours here in the hammock and enjoying the space. Highly recommend!Kim D.

FAQ about our Lakeside dog hiking trails
Are dog hiking trails safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than a city or county park. With a Sniffspot off-leash area 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 guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. Our hiking trails tend to be outside the city, which lends to more privacy, but it is also important to follow typical hiking safety precautions, such as potentially having trail maps.
How can I find dog hiking trails in Lakeside?
There are 9 dog hiking trails in the Lakeside area. The most popular dog hiking trail is Taylor pond. You can browse all of our dog hiking trails here.
How do I know if a dog hiking trail works for my dog?
Sniffspot provides the tools to find the ideal spot. Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing 6 feet tall and distractions, to find a dog park with trails that works for your dog. You can also filter by size if you are looking for a certain acre park, an expansive off-leash dog park. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog hiking trails. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog hiking trails where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Since you are looking for trails, make sure to check photos to see if it the spot has flat trails or gnarly trails. You can also browse by specific amenities, if you are looking for a view or a beach, for instance, or other activities or fun features. You can check whether the spot has off or on street parking, the regular park hours, whether it has paved trails or a modern restroom.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog hiking trail?
In order to hike the trails, we require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not permit dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot hiking trail at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
