55Was our first time and my husband and I brought our 2 dogs. Our dogs are very reactive dogs and first time off leash adventuring and they did so well. It’s absolutely worth it to have privacy and a stress free environment. My dachshund absolutely loved the creek and my beagle loved jumping off the rocks. It’s also great for my beagle to get her sensory smells fulfilled. The walk down the trail was easy, but going back up was a bit of a struggle for someone like me. We must’ve adventured a little deep in the bushes because my husband walked into a few thick spider webs, and my dachshund got spiked balls stuck to her fur. So if you’re worried about that just stay on the paved way. Driving to the property was a bit confusing because the road was blocked off so we had to detour. (As of 8/21) We passed by the gate to entry at least 5 times before realizing it was the right gate (that’s on us) other than that, I would come back here again. If we lived closer we’d be here every weekend! Also, my dogs slept for 6 hours straight afterwards. This dog hiking experience was the best! Sheila-Jasmine W.

55We brought our reactive dog to Choice Avocado & she had so much fun! There were no people or dogs around so it was perfect for her. Our host was so nice to helps up when we got turned around and went the wrong way. Bring water for you & your pup and booties since the sand can hot. It’s not a long walk/hike but there are steep sections. We ended up at the creek & our dog played for as long as possible in the water. So much fun! We booked two hours & it was long enough but our dog would have stayed longer :) Also, the road near the location can be bumpy so low clearing cars would struggle. We drove a Subaru & got up there fine. Andrea M.

55Great Sniffspot! My dog Loki had a lot of fun hiking and playing in the stream. The hike down and back up wasn’t too bad; I’m not in shape at all and was able to manage with some breaks along the way. It is fairly steep so if you have any mobility issues I would definitely take Alma and David’s offer to ride in their ATV. Overall amazing place to roam around for a bit! Lauren W.

55I came here with my English Golden Retriever and it was fantastic! She likes to go on adventures rather than socializing with other dogs so unleashing my dog for hiking and stream was perfect. It was worth of trying for my dog coming out here. I stayed for 4 hours with my own packed lunch and waters. The creek itself is not too big for not suitable for swimming, but water was really cool enough my dog to run around and come back to cool herself down.
For future comers, if you wish to stay long, itd be better to come early in the morning so u can enjoy more cool breeze. It’d be more fun if you bring more of your DIY lunch, toys, games, small tents, etc. I look forward for more visits :)

55I don’t have enough words to describe this place! This place was recommended by my trainer as my pup is struggling with leash reactivity. So being able to provide an outlet to sniff and decompress without worrying about other dogs or being in an open area gave me so much reassurance! From moment I arrived, communication was stellar with the hosts. They provided maps and directions upon booking to better guide me and visuals definitely helped! I also added an extra add on for the stream hike which to be honest, was a bit disappointing for an extra $30 because it seemed as if the trails connected. I’m not sure if there was more than one area, but I couldn’t pass water since my pup is a huge water lover! Despite that, my pup had so much fun romping around and taking a splash at the stream. There was a lot of shade near the stream and throughout the trail, but it did get warm. I’d highly recommend this place to all our friends and next time would start earlier! We stayed 3 hours from 9:30am-12:30pm and it was plenty of time although I’m sure my pup would think differently. Pro tip: wear comfortable shoes as some parts are steep hills! Thank you for hosting us and being so patient and accommodating! ♥️Sherry S.

It was so nice to not have to be worried about them getting into trouble or coming across other dogs or people. We have a hard time finding locations to let them off leash without a lot of other dogs around. We will be back again for sure. Tracy P.

55First time booking a Sniffspot and couldn't have asked for a better location or host. Alma & David were incredibly welcoming and made the hour-long trek from Orange County worthwhile. Our Great Pyrenees and German Shepherd had a blast hiking and playing in the stream while we thoroughly enjoyed the delicious guacamole & refreshing lemonade (add-ons). The hosts checked-in on us to make sure we were enjoying ourselves and even graciously brought back our giant breed dog who raced back to their home :). Enthusiastically recommend this beautiful setting for your dogs to explore and highly encourage you to add-on some of their delicious offerings.Chris C.

55The ranch is a great area for dogs to come and explore off leash with peace of mind. My dog and I did the hike down to the creek and my dog loved exploring down there and building confidence in new situations. I will note that the creek hike is a pretty steep hike both up and down, although pretty short (15 mins). If you or your dog are not in the best condition or recovering from injury I wouldn’t suggest that add on. But a lovely property and very peaceful to hangout by the creek where they have chairs in the sand along the creek and a swing over the water and hammock. Mary-Kate C.

55This spot is amazing! It was lightly raining on and off and it didn't ruin the experience at all, rain or shine your dogs will love it. I went in late october with a blue heeler and a yorkie. The stream was still a good temperature to stay in and be comfortable and have the dogs jump around. Only a few areas of the main stream were deeper than my heelers shoulders and the the current is nothing to worry about even for smaller dogs. The stream area is large and secluded, more than enough space to play fetch, run around, etc.
I drove from San Diego for context. Getting to the location you'll eventually lose cellular service but the hosts provide very detailed directions, maps, and pictures to get you there with no difficulty as well as a phone number which they respond to texts and calls quickly. The hosts run their spot very professionally and friendly, great communication from beginning to end. I only reserved the general sniffspot and the stream walk add-on but I know they offer a lot more. Cal S.

FAQ about our Palm Springs fully fenced dog parks
Are fully fenced dog parks 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 public dog parks. Human and animal safety is our #1 focus. Without a private option, many dog owners are relegated to using athletic fields or tennis courts for their dogs, which are not private or safe. With Sniffspot 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. And with fully fenced Sniffspot parks, you can get the safety of a fenced-in space for dogs, while still having plenty of space to run.
How can I find fully fenced dog parks in Palm Springs?
There are 151 fully fenced dog parks in the Palm Springs area. The most popular fully fenced park is . You can browse all of our fully fenced dog parks here.
How do I know if a fully fenced dog park works for my dog?
Many people looking for fully fenced parks have dogs that are not good with voice control. Start by applying basic filters, such as fences height and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. You can see attributes of fences such as height, gaps and fencing type to find the perfect fenced-in space for dogs. You can filter by size to make sure you have plenty of space, or a smaller space if you prefer a neighborhood park. You can browse on a map by park location to find one in your city or near your city. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our off-leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible near the space. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to check features you want for your activity, such as fresh water, trail features such as soft trails or walking trails, or even water fountains. If you prefer wood chips, many of our parks have wood chips or indoor space if you prefer a beautiful park building.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot fully fenced dog park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not permit use by pregnant dogs and we do not permit dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules, such as staying within the designated off-leash areas. Each park location also has their own set of rules that guests need to follow, such as limiting excessive barking.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot fully fenced dog park 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.
