This is just a beautiful spot. Just sitting on the dock together was fun! But, your pup can get in the water and swim and there are stairs to make getting in and out easy. Our girl just loved rolling around in the grass and exploring the flowers. Jody was very communicative and made sure we had all the info we’d need. Would highly recommend!

Great space, my dogs had so much fun! It was also very clean and had toys and water for them

This Sniffspot is an amazing hidden gem! Can’t wait to go back to catch a sunset on the water! Host communicated very quickly from before I booked, to while I got there to let me know where to park etc… (although there’s no confusion possible, the gate entrance is pretty straightforward). Low but very secure fence with no gaps anywhere, clean grass, two shaded spots under trees, LOTS of space for running AND direct access to the water which made my dogs feel like big explorers lol. No visible dogs directly on either side, just a friendly neighbor who took her tiny dogs out to pee for 1 minute. Otherwise, suuuper quiet and idyllic spot. HIGHLY recommended, will book again for sure!!

It was very easy to get it with great instructions. My senior girl has a blast wondering around. The grad was cut to a great length and just a nice open yard so I could see my girl at all times. The hose was so helpful to make sure she was hydrated and they offer a bowl and poop bags if you don’t bring your own. It was so nice. There was some little dogs a few yards over that do bark so just be cautious if you have a fence jumper. But other then that great experience

Very nicely kept property, and beautiful view of the LC reservoir. My dog and I had a great time. We saw a very little dog a couple of lots over who was determined to make us notice him with his barking, but my pup looked, then dismissed him. An adjacent house on the opposite side had guests at the pool area, and a very docile dog approached the fence and my girl trotted over to him, but amazingly she did not react defensively! First time I’ve seen her not react when that close to another canine she doesn’t already know. A few sniffs and walked away. Hooray! Hope we can arrange to return again. Great price and plenty of Chuck-it ball space.

Nice yard and pretty view! I brought my brittany & 2 gsps that we are dog sitting and they enjoyed themselves a lot. It was nice to let all 3 of them run and I could relax knowing they couldn’t bother any people/dogs. The neighbor & her dog were standing by the fence for a few mins, not sure how often that happens. However, It wasn’t an issue for me as mine are friendly. Just something to consider if yours isn’t. We made great use of the easily accessible hose/water bowl. We will definitely be back and try to utilize the gorgeous lake behind the house next time. Thank you for having us!

We had an absolutely wonderful time! There was a bunch of room to run around and shade to cool off under 😊 The area was fully fenced, and the dogs loved being able to slash in the water behind the house.

There were clear instructions on how to access the yard. The yard itself was large and had a great view of the lake. The fence was secure. The ground was even and free of dog poop or muddy spots. The owner left open the sunroom which I did not utilize but was a very nice amenity. My dogs had a great time and I definitely will return!

Great! Big yard for the doggies to run in. watch out for thorns on the trail to the lake though!

We had a great time here. The yard was clean (no dog poop) and was a good size to run out my dogs energy. The host was very kind and responded quickly. She provided water, poop bags,and some toys. Overall it was a great experience and I would definitely recommend this sniff spot!

Exactly as pictured and described! A perfect spot to get a lot of energy out if you have a cooped-up dog like me. We had a lot of fun.

Fantastic sniff spot! My dog LOVED this spot with all the areas to sniff. She did not want to leave! Great host - easy communication, and items included were doggie bags, toys, fresh water and a place to sit - couldn't ask for anything better. Thank you!

Our first Sniffspot experience and we had so much fun! Nice, roomy yard and set up so you can play hide and seek if your dog likes that. A bowl of fresh water was provided, a nice chair for me, and a variety of dog toys. There will be shade from a neighbor's tree once the leaves are out. Very good experience!

The perfect spot on a hot day! We appreciated the clear communication and readily available water for our pup. Plenty of space to run and chase and have fun. The yard was secure and chairs were available for us humans. We will definitely book again!

Such wonderful and thoughtful hosts with great communication. Koa has loved returning to this spot many many times and it is a beautiful open space to explore and run!

It was lovely, very well kept and safe place. The toys, the clean bowl of water, shade for the humans… running water (hose). A lovely back yard. The only challenge are the three doggies right next door… they loved to pay attention to Laurence… 🤪

There were a few new improvements that we noticed this time around including the stepping stones by the entrance and the welcome sign and loved them! Happy we decided to come back to this sniff spot. Our girls had a blast!
