Host replied: Ana, Thank you so much for your kind words and 5⭐️ review! Looking forward to your return! Juanita
Tired after another fun adventure!
Host replied: Toni, Thank you so very much for your review and what a fabulous picture! Definitely one tired & happy pup 😃🐾
My dog absolutely loved this spot! She enjoyed romping through the wooded areas and dipping her paws in the stream. Thanks, Juanita for being so responsive.
Host replied: Excellent! We’re chuffed that Merit and you had a good experience. Thank you for your 5⭐️ review & for posting these wonderful photos of Merit. Welcome back anytime!
Fantastic place for off leash walks with my dogs. We all enjoyed our first visit and want to visit again. The trails are just that - leaf covered, with sticks, rocks, roots etc, great for hiking.
Host replied: Thank you so much for the 5⭐️ review.! We are looking forward to your next visit 🐾🙂
It's a beautiful place, nice mix of open areas & woods. We didn't have time for the pond, but if we go again, we'll definitely check it out. The owner was very helpful, alerted me prior to our visit that a workman would be on site & responded quickly to a question I sent her while there. Bonnie & I had a nice time, and although I was frustrated by not having a property line map & more signage, apparently that's in the works, which is great, because it's a delightful place to roam with dogs.
Host replied: Elizabeth, Thank you so much for your honest insight and stating that the property line map & additional signage are in the works. I get lost myself here sometimes ;-) We so appreciate your kind words and are very pleased you and Bonnie had a good experience overall. Thank you again, and we look forward to your return! Juanita
My pups enjoyed exploring the beautiful property! Experience was extremely positive and Juanita was very helpful and responsive. Will definitely be back! Thank you!
Host replied: Toni, Thank you for booking with us and your 5⭐️ review. We look forward to your return!
My dog and I really enjoyed roaming around this farm! It's a beautiful property and great place to explore and have my dog run. Loved it!
Host replied: Pier, Thanks very much for your kind words. We’re so pleased you & pup enjoyed your visit & are looking forward to your return!
This place is magical! I will be back. The host was very communicative, as we were running late for my first Sniffspot visit. They graciously allowed us to extend our visit due to my own error. There is so much to explore, and we barely scratched the surface. I can't wait to come back and book for two hours.
Host replied: Trisha, Thank you so much for your kind words. We’re thrilled you had a good experience and look forward to your return!
This is an absolutely wonderful spot and I’m so glad that Juanita has made it available. I’ve visited twice now and we’re still discovering more of the property. There is a nice combination of fields, forest and trails, and even a couple of ponds for the pups to take a swim.
Host replied: William, Thank you so very much for your kind words and I’m pleased that your pups enjoyed the ponds!
So nice! I had great communication with the owner and my doggies loved running around.
Host replied: Thanks so much for the kind words. We're really pleased that you & doggies enjoyed your visit and look forward to the next!
