55This was our first sniff spot ever and we had the best time! The trail was well marked and maintained and our dogs had so much fun splashing and running around the trails! There was also a nice little seating area for humans to rest and watch their dogs play!Madeline C.

55It was really nice to hike with my dog on forest trails off leash without worry. There is a beautiful creek that my dog loved laying in. I would wear hiking or tennis shoes. There is a lovely sitting area and they also provide a walking cane plus some per supplies . I was a little nervous out to drive into their private driveway but Zach was very responsive and guided me to park far right of driveway. We will definitely go back as a favorite !Praveen R.

55What a magical place! Puck loved the forest and all the pinecones! Very beautiful place to walk amongst ancient trees so close to the city. And Puck loved the creek to cool down in. A wonderful sniff spot with a space to sit and rest listening to the water running from the creek. We will def be back!Hoopla M.

55We absolutely loved this sniffspot for our doggy. She was happy to be off leash and we were happy to not be on high alert for other dogs. She loved the little creek and all the trails that we went on. Please remember to wear hiking/ tennys to this spot. It has steep trails in some spotsBarbara E.

55This was our first Sniffspot. We adopted a dog about a month ago who has lots of reactivity so walking him in new areas has been a challenge. This was so fun!!! We had to keep him on leash because his recall is nonexistent but this property is absolutely gorgeous!!! I think hanging out in the trees near the creek was as good for us as it was for our pup. Lots of cute touches here. Thanks so much for hosting us! Stacy E.

55This was my second time here and from all the Sniffspots I've been to this is my favorite so far. It feels like you have driven outside of Portland to go for a forest hike. If your dog likes to run around and sniff, splash in a stream, and doesn't have to play fetch, this is the place for you. Some parts of the trails are steep, but just little bits. You do end up tracing your steps back and forth it you stay for more than a half hour, but it doesn't really feel like it because the place is so beautiful. I noticed that there had been trail improvements since my last visit and I'm guessing as time goes on there will be more trails to explore. Lia W.

55Lovely forested spot! Not fenced but the trails are away from the road. There is a lovely seating area with chairs and a table. The creek runs through the property and is so nice to listen to and the dogs loved it. Meagan F.

55This spot was perfect for our two young high energy pups. They loved running the trails and playing in the creek, Gizmo loved showing off his agility skills on the perfectly placed fallen logs, and there’s a lovely place to sit next to the creek for a rest. Zach’s spot is beautifully maintained and felt safe for our rambunctious Heeler mix and Boston Terrier. Maybe throw a towel in your car if your pups like to splash around. :)Lea A.

FAQ about our Troutdale dog water parks
Are dog water parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. 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. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines. Some great ways to stay safe around water with your dog include learning canine CPR and keep an eye on your dog at all times to ensure they are not distressed.

How do I know if a dog water park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog water parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog water parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to see what kind of water features are offered to make sure it works for your dog. If your dog is not a strong swimmer, then perhaps choose a dog water park with tamer water features rather than a river or beach, for instance. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot water park?
We require that all dogs 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. Additionally, we recommend following our water safety guidelines.
