55As predicted, we had a blast! The property is indeed gorgeous and my water dogs really appreciated the pond. The “Lagotto girls” got as dirty as possible, so as far as they’re concerned, all is right with the world. We’ll definitely be back.Barbara G.

55We had a blast, as always. We came up for the doofus' 6th birthday because this is one of her favorite places. She also got to run around in the snow and eat it like any 6 year old would.
The onlu reason we aren't here multiple times a week is the 1 hour 40 minute drive!Courtney K.

55we haven't had a visit here in a year due to a cascade of surgeries & bummer dx for my dog, mina. i felt blessed getting to visit this spot on a chilly day of misty snow; mina knew EXACTLY where we were when we pulled in & closed the driveway gate--the 1st carride in a while that wasn't the vet! i loved that she ventured off-trail a lot more today; so much greenery & ferns are gone for now. and oh -- she found a ball! how sweet!
if your dog can't or won't play with other dogs, this is the perfect place to go.

55Our dogs have come here enough now that they confidently chase each other around the property and check in with us every so often. It’s so fun to see them run around and play together without worrying about their safety. Can’t wait for the next visit! Erica N.

55First time using Sniff Spot, and so glad I chose the best one to visit for my first experience! The home-owners are extremely informative so it’s very welcoming- you can tell they are passionate about dogs. The feeling of letting your dogs run free with no worries- is priceless. 100% recommend and I will be back for sure. :) Riane T.

55We've been here a handful of times and always a wonderful experience. If you get a chance to take your dog after a snowstorm, definitely do it! So much fun watching our pup run around in the fresh powder =)Breanna R.

55Scout and I love Happy Trails so much! I have never seen Scout as happy as she is when we’re here. The trails are very well maintained and the hosts are so accommodating! I’m hoping to make our visits monthly, if not weekly. Mallory S.

55We had such a wonderful time at our first sniff spot! I was told about this place from a friend who thinks highly of it. Our husky/akita is an escape artist who has had to be kept leashed for most his life on walks. It was so nice to see him running freely today. We are very grateful for this site and for Brent’s hospitality. We can’t wait to go back some time and watch our pup enjoy the freedom!Elizabeth C.

55Nice, large wooded property. It’s uncommon to find this size lot that’s completely fenced in. This is great place for dogs to run freely without having worry about other dogs, traffic or people. Todd K.

55Brent and Chrissy were so lovely! Their property is beautiful and very well maintained. We loved the sneaky tennis ball and running wild on the trails. The fence gave a great sense of security but definitely didn't detract from being in the woods.
We will be back! With more friends :)Laura S.

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.
