Dog Park

🐾 The Dog Park at Dark Horse Estate Winery – OPENING JUNE 6!

We’re thrilled to announce our brand-new Dog Park, opening just in time for summer – during retail hours. 

Guests can bring their four-legged companions to enjoy a space designed just for them. Our fully fenced Dog Park offers plenty of room to sniff, sprint, and socialize, along with an exciting agility zone for pups who love a little adventure. The dog park area is part of a former horse pasture where the natural terrain does remain more rustic than a manicured dog park. Please note the fencing is former pasture fencing.

This new addition is the perfect complement to our popular Pup Flights on the Patio, making Dark Horse Estate Winery a must-visit for dog lovers and their furry friends.

Please Note: For the safety of all guests and our vineyard, dogs must remain in designated pet-friendly areas. Access to the vineyard itself is not permitted for pets.

Come sip, stay, and play—because great wine is even better with your best friend by your side.

A water station will be provided, please bring your own dog bowl/container. 
Please note the park will be closed & locked outside retail hours.
