55Our favorite SniffSpot always! The kindest owner, private retreat & all the amenities you need! Benny & I always love our getaway
55My dog and I really enjoyed this spot! A great area to let a dog be a dog! Spacious with lots of space to explore and wonderful amenities.
55This was our second visit, and it’s quickly becoming Hanks favorite Sniffspot!
55Great place after rehabbing from neuter to stretch the legs and be off leash. Love how the toy chest also has bug spray and first aid kits. They’ve got it figured out here!
55Wonderful place!! Everything you could think of you need is on site. A dog’s perfect area!!
55Awesome visit as always!!
55Perfect location for a family picnic while the dogs get to run and play
55We had such an amazing time! It was way bigger than we had anticipated and Hank loved exploring. The tick spray and wash station were very helpful, and we appreciated all the places for us to hang out while Hank played. We’ll definitely be back!
55We had a wonderful time as usual. This is Cherokees favorite spot since we moved here. Clean with lots of woods and field to explore. Always happy when I can let Cherokee explore without worrying about safety. Secure fencing lets us just enjoy the experience.
55Another great day - the mornings here are cool and beautiful!

Want to see your dog really get up to speed? Want to let them chase a squirrel without having to worry about traffic? Swim and wade in a creek? Come see us at Poplar Creek Flower Farm! We have 40 acres we want to share with you. 10 acres are pastures/grass which we keep mowed about every 3 weeks and the rest are woods! We have about 2 1/2 miles of trails to walk, bike or run. We are just minutes away from Pilot Mountain State Park and Highway 52, a perfect spot to stop if you're passing through. Out buildings are off limits to everyone. If it is windy, please be extra mindful in the woods- trees and branches do fall! We try to keep up with any big downed trees and try to keep trails clear. If you notice something that you feel needs our attention, please leave me a message and we will do our best! On the lane to our place, you will pass neighbors who have dogs. Please be on the lookout and drive slowly. They are typically leashed or the Great Pyrenees are in the field with the goats. Please note that the map to the property is in the black box. This will show the trails and the swimming hole! The pond is not on our property, but the creeks are! Please ensure you and your dog protect against ticks/bugs. There is an abundance of wildlife on the property- deer, turkey, snakes, squirrels, vultures, hawks and groundhogs. Please make sure you're comfortable with you're dog's recall. We hope you come and enjoy some off leash time with your 4 legged best friend(s) as you explore the pastures, wooded trails and creek!
