55This was our first time using sniffspot and we are very pleased with this spot! Definitely enough room for our 3 dogs to run, very clean, lots of toys to choose from too! Will definitely be booking here again!
45A large fenced-in area. My pup enjoyed the new smells and playing with some of the toys provided. I appreciated the chairs. It was quiet, private and very pretty, as you can see in pics. No other animals seen or heard. On the downside for us, because it is Fall, there was a tree that was dropping some kind of nut. These nuts were broken apart on the ground. Once my 10-month-old puppy found them, he tried to eat them. We had to leave early because of that. I look forward to coming back after the leaves and tree nuts are swept up!
55Nice size yard and the dogs loved the toys that were available. Clean and no areas of concern for escape.
35SniffSpot was clean and as described. It would have been nice to know that a loud tractor was going to be used nearby on a Sunday evening. Abby is noise sensitive, so she didn't zoom freely as I expected. When the gunfire started, we needed to leave!
55Tully had such a great time sniffing all of the sniffs! The spot was clean and we found it easily! We love to support Playful Pup’s business! Thank you for having a safe and clean spot for our pup to run and sniff🐾
45We had a great time
55This spot is seclusive, well kept with a high fence for bigger pups like mine. It is in a wooded area so there will be alot of gnats but thats expected. The area was clean and my dog Prince (who is a reactive dog) got the privacy he needed so he could run around for his 8th birthday today. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much for sharing your space. It means alot to those who have dogs like i do.
55We absolutely love this location! Always clean and tidy with a perfect amount of space for our two dogs to play, investigate and run. Love that there is some shade and plenty of bright sun. The fence and gate are secure and the different amenities that are there, complete it as a perfect Sniff Spot!
55Beautiful space and very well maintained.
55It was a lovely spot a little hard to find but other than that pretty good it was hot the day we went so he didn’t do to much plus it was his first time so we didn’t stay the full time but he loved it and loved being able to run around

Hi dog lover! My name is Laurie Yost and I own Playful Pups Retreat. We have two locations in Elizabthtown and are always looking for new ways to serve our clients and the dog lovers in our community. Our overnight boarding facility, located at 850 Milton Grove Rd, Elizabethtown, is situated in 19 beautiful acres. We have a large play yard at the one end of our property that is fully fenced with a wooden 6ft privacy fence that we are happy to now rent out to dog lovers who need a safe and secure area for their dog(s) to run, play and train.
