55Absolutely love this sniff spot! It's so much fun for my young daughters to spot all the gnomes. My dogs love the vast space to explore through trails and vegetation. I got a membership so we can come again and again!
Note: While there are farm animals here, they are far enough away my dogs have never seen them. Though we could hear a rooster off in the distance. But my dogs didn't even notice.Ariel B.

55Walk in Don’s Woods is such a peaceful place to enjoy a walk with my dogs. There are plenty of trails to wander and enjoy finding all the treasures and artful pieces that have been cleverly placed around the property. This is my second time visiting, and I plan to return in the future! Robin M.

55We had so much fun! The little treasures along the way made it just as fun for me as it was for my dog. As it’s starting to heat up bug spray is a must & they also have some available, super thoughtful. We can’t wait to go back :) Ada C.

55The pups (3), 2 young and 1 older had a fantastic time. We spent 2 hours and saw lots of the trails. You must have good recall if you have a wondering pup like ours. We will be back! Thank you!Nola O.

55A great spot! My dogs and I enjoyed the trails. I got so lost in my thoughts and watching them and taking everything in that I didn’t even get my phone out for photos. Wish we had spent more time. Looking forward to our next visitAli B.

55A very nice walk in the woods for sure. There’s lots of trails and the dogs could run forever. Thats our biggest thing-letting our Corsos run off leash! Be sure to check the “ in box” folks for bug spray- lots of skeeters! Big open area for stick throwing, many interesting creatures(most not live) to see along the walk. Super fun! Number one Sniff Spot for us thus far !Shelly G.

55Dogs and I had so much fun walking the well groomed trails. There are many side trails that all connect to each other so you can walk and walk and not realize that you've actually gone past that particular trail already.Vidara K.

55We found another favorite sniffspot today! Easy to access the spot. There are cute gnomes, signs and decorations in the trail. Also, an area where we can play, having a picnic and bathroom. We definitely come back again!!Akane M.

55As always, this is the perfect spot for an adventure. It's shady in hot weather, and sheltered in the rain. The trails are lovely and there is just so much to explore.Margi M.

55Such a beautiful property! The river is great, plus super fun for my dog Teddy. Got the chance to meet the host. We chatted a bit, super nice person. Can't beat the beauty here. Perfect! (This is a place for dogs with decent recall, since it is partially fenced. Even so, totally worth visiting on leash, if needed.)Jacki D.
