55Roberts place was Jack and Athena’s, as well as my boyfriend and my first sniff spot. As the same for him. And I can say it definitely was a welcoming invite. He is a nice guy with a lovely yard and very beautiful. Very respectful and thoughtful as well. Jack and Athena our dogs had the best time there. Just smiles all around 🐶Lizzy L.

55This was our first time using a sniffspot. It was a great experience. The host has everything there that you could need. It was easy to find with signs showing you exactly where to go. Our very busy goldendoodle had a great time and was so tired by the time we left. We would highly recommend this sniffspot and will be visiting again!!Melissa H.

55A great spot with lots of room to roam and explore. Daniel has gone above and beyond with amenities like seating, but spray, and treats (for the dogs and the goats). One of our favorite Sniffspots!Amy G.

55Daniel really goes above and beyond to make this sniffspot a 10/5.....you can tell nothing is half-a**ed around there lol!! From beautiful trails that were well kept, chairs throughout so you can relax and enjoy all over the property, tons of toys and treats and even all sorts of ways to pick up after your pup. There truly wasn't a single thing that hadnt been considered. I felt beyond safe bringing my dog there who requires a bit extra. To top it if we had to cancel last minute and we were still able to get a refund! Sweetest people ever. Best place! We will 100% be returning!!Kassandra P.

55A great spot for our dogs and the humans too! Had everything we needed and then some! Our dogs were initially scared of the goats, but some treats for everyone and a few minutes of checking them out, all was well!Leann S.

55This sniffspot is a little slice of heaven! We moved to Minneapolis into an apartment in March. It’s been a big change from having our own backyard for us and our dog. My son and my dog loved running around wild while my wife and I enjoyed the hammocks. We will be back as soon as possible. Christian H.

55We had the best time at this ranch Sniffspot!!! I had hoped to give out city pup, Ranger, some more country experiences and safe off leash play for so long and now I finally can. The host is so thoughtful to supply so many amenities, too! He's really thought of everything. I felt very safe knowing Ranger wouldn't get out of the enclosed space. I can see how small dogs could though so keep that in mind! We will definitely be back!!!Jaell L.

55Love coming here to escape the loud city life. I can fully relax knowing my dog is secure in the fencing, and no other dogs can approach us. Daniel even wrote us a handwritten thank you card for supporting his sniffspot- that was so thoughtful! 😊 🐕Marianna L.

55Honestly the perfect Sniffspot. It brings me so much joy to see my dog running around and knowing the fence is secure enough to keep him in and he goes wild for the goats. All the different chairs and hammocks around the property are so nice and the host leaves out a wonderful array of toys and treats. Feeding the goats peanuts really made my week too 🙂Sophie G.

55Lots of fun and space to roam. I was a little unsure of how Cleo would react to the goats but there was so much else to see and do that it was easy to just steer clear. Wonderful spot!Michelle K.

FAQ about our Albert Lea dog parks
