Such a beautiful place! We saw a family of deer leaping up the hills today! The pups were so good and just watched them. We love it here!

I think I said it out loud 10 times but this place is such a treasure. Thank you for sharing your beautiful woods with us!

This Sniffspot is amazing! It really is like having a piece of Forest Park all to yourself. One of my dogs is reactive and I felt comfortable letting him run around off leash. The trails are marked well and there are signs to let you know when you’re at the end. The steep trails are perfect for wearing my two labs out! We will definitely be back!

Sara M.

February 2023

What an amazing place. The maps, trail markings, and easy parking! 🤩 Very quiet and secluded. It was muddy, yes, but I was fine in hiking boots. We did not go too far downhill since I was worried about slipping, or my dog taking me out running down the hills. That is MY issue, not the spaces! This location is going to be amazing in the summer. Lots of shade and won’t be muddy. I’ve got to get my hill legs back in shape. 😆 Dogs had a blast! They did need baths when we got home but I figured that would be the case & planned for it.

Mandy M.

February 2023

Talk about amazing!!! My boys had a blast. I even got a great workout hiking up the trails. The creek spot was definitely the highlight for my goofballs. Both boys are tired out and I’m pretty sure this adventure beats the normal daily walk. Tip, wear good traction shoes because it’s muddy and the hills can be slippery - I was certainly glad I wore my Bog rain boots :) We will definitely be back!

January 2023

Awesome spot! This is a forest park vibe with a little creek running along the trail. Our pups loved it! Like anywhere else in the PNW during winter, it was muddy. Not a big deal. The parking was well described and the was trail marked. We will definitely be back!

Beth B.

January 2023

Perfect spot! We didn’t need to stay long because our dog did the trails 2x, running ahead and back the entire time! She was exhausted. ;-) Fresh eggs available to buy is a nice touch. They were waiting for me upon arrival. Agree with other comments, it is a tiny forest park all to yourself.

Kate T.

February 2021

Another great pawventure day with my dogs and my friend’s dogs. John’s and Stephanie’s place is a true doggy paradise. Highly recommend this SniffSpot- especially if you’re looking for a bit of everything. Bonus- a restroom to use by the barn before leaving. And domestic animals on the property feels you’re at a petting zoo. Especially for your pup who has never seen an animal before, this is a good opportunity to socialize them from afar.

This was an absolutely AMAZING SniffSpot experience. The hosts were extremely kind during our visit and their property was absolutely stunning. We loved the farm animals! There was ample room to explore the wooded areas and creeks on their property. It was a great experience all across the board for my pup and family! We would love to return to Spring Acres. Thank you so much John and Stephanie!!

Amazing Sniffspot! At the very top there is no enclosure, otherwise the area is secured by either fencing or very thick tall brush. We feel completely safe here. A really nice variety of terrain and nature...wonderful trails, a creek and grassy areas. You can tell this farm is loved. Thanks John & Stephanie!! ♥

We've been coming here for over a year and really love this spot. It's always evolving and John & Stephanie are working hard to keep this a safe, fun spot for their guests. Such a beautiful area and so much for the dogs to explore, a really awesome place to be. ♥

Such an amazing experience for my pup and for us! So much land for them to roam freely, jumping around the creeks and pretty waterfalls and running everywhere!! My puppy got to meet the goats and the cows they had there. They even helped spray off my dogs legs & dried him off before we let him back in the car. Definitely recommend this place and will be back!

One of our favorite spots! Trails, a creek and lots of open space to roam. Every visit is amazing. Our home away from home. 🤗

Great Sniffspot with lots of room to roam and explore. Hosts are fabulous too! We come here at least once a week and it never disappoints.

December 2020

This was our first SniffSpot experience and it was truly 5 star! We were greeted warmly by the hosts and their goats! John led us through a gated pasture with goats, hens, bunnies, and 2 highland cattle which was a great experience for our dog (on leash) and us! Once in Spring Acres, it’s off leash and we had so much fun exploring! The trail system was very well maintained with clever trail signs made of wood. There is a very cute cabin under construction at the center of all the trails and John said we were welcome to sit on the deck and hang out. I wish I would have packed a lunch for us since I booked two hours. A few of the trails were muddy due to the recent rain, but the nearby streams were a great place for Bentley to wade in and wash off. My husband, daughter and I enjoyed hiking and exploring the trails as much as Bentley did! Great day!

Susan D.

December 2020

Spectacular! It can definitely get muddy here during the raining season but it's fairly easy to avoid and the dogs can also wash off in the creek. :-) A really nice park-like setting and we always feel very safe & welcome here. One of our favorite spots!

Susan D.

November 2020

We come here often and always book 2 hours. The time flies by and we have so much fun. There are loads of smells and lots of woodsy trails to explore. The creek is a huge bonus and the water is fresh and clean. One of our most favorite spots. Thanks John and Stephanie!

Bonnie B.

September 2020

We have been to Spring Acres several times now and we absolutely love it! To begin with, the hosts, John and Stephanie are really warm and welcoming and they are there to greet us each time. John walks us through the pasture past their livestock and because I have a reactive dog, I was really worried about it at first. However, it went very well and it gets easier each time. The area past the pasture includes a grassy area by a creek - a great place to play fetch and romp in the water. Past the creek is several acres of wooded trails which are a blast to explore with your pooch at your side (or in my case, he’s way down the trail in front of me!) It seems like we find a new trail each time too. The trails are nicely maintained but are quite hilly and do have some muddy spots. Be prepared with good walking shoes and to get a good workout. Even though the area isn’t fully fenced most of the property has natural borders like blackberries and other underbrush that keep the property well contained. The property is completely private too and there is no risk of running into other people or dogs so it is a perfect place to exercise a reactive dog. I am so grateful we found this place - now I don’t have to worry about getting my dog enough exercise and stimulation. Overall, a great Sniffspot for a reactive pooch (or any pooch for that matter.)

FAQ About McMinnville 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 McMinnville?

There are 21 dog hiking trails in the McMinnville area. The most popular dog hiking trail is Minto-Brown Island Dog Park. 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.

How much do Sniffspot hiking trails cost?

Dog hiking trails in the McMinnville area range from $10.0 and $. The least expensive dog hiking trail is Nehemiah lane dog farm. The most expensive dog hiking trail is Keizer Rapids Park. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
