55Such a great place to sniff and explore—especially for reactive dogs that don’t do great in busy environments/shared fence lines. We’ll definitely be back to walk the trails again 🐶Holly S.

55Our 2nd visit and with spring a little more upon us, it was even better! The trails were dry and easy to navigate, and the woods and privacy make it a little nature get-away only 30 minutes from home! Maureen A.

55Wow!! This spot is amazing. My pup absolutely loved running and jumping through the different terrain, especially the stream and ravine areas! We will absolutely be coming back. Some of the trees are blossoming around the trails too and it’s so beautiful. I’ve never had a happier Hazy! Kayla & Marlin S.

55Nice big space to wander around and with the hills a bit of a workout for the humans. The trails are dirt so I would suggest rubber boots and a towel if it’s been rainy.Erin N.

55Katie's spot has a whole new look with the arrival of Spring! So much green--it's stunning. Most of the trails, especially in the woods, are dry enough to walk after all the rain. I'd still wear shoes with a good tread, but hiking boots aren't a must. Gabby stayed pretty clean, too; she's short-haired, medium weight, dainty paws. We absolutely love coming here, and with enough widely varied terrain, you can visit again & again and never be bored!Melissa M.

55It’s a lovely property and as advertised. It reminded me of Battle Creek dog park. The trail is a loop that takes a half hour to walk. Partially dirt path, partially mowed grass path - some of the paths are tricky to see/follow, but we figured it out quickly after a moment of confusion. It’s pretty hilly - a workout for both 4-legged and 2-legged. Mostly wooded, but there’s some clearings and water features. It’s more a place for exploring nature than flat out running. I saw one wild turkey nearby in the woods. Lots of bugs. The owner was a friendly, happy fellow.

55One of my dogs is nervous around other dogs so this has been a great place for him. He’s able to be off leash without any fear of running into other dogs. The space is great with trails to walk and some open areas to play. I really appreciate that they’ve opened up their property to others. We will continue to come visit! Janet R.

55Such a gorgeous, quiet property! My dog had the best time running around on the trails and in the grass! The trails are fantastic, well maintained, and there are tables tucked away in the trees that would make perfect picnic spots. Like others have noted, it is bug season and they were definitely out since it had just rained so be prepared. We’ll definitely be back once the weather cools off and there are fewer bugs. Highly recommend!Sarah S.

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.
