55Barb is a friendly and gracious host who explains the layout of the property well. There is an interesting mix of field and forest with a clearly marked trail through the woods. This is a great spot for dogs who enjoy a diversity of terrain and who have decent recall skills. Because this great spot is 20 acres, it's big enough that if your dog likes to explore far afield and doesn't have solid recall, you could lose sight of them for a bit. Just be aware of this and be prepared to get a little extra exercise if you need to track them down :)Lucy M.

55Four years ago today, handsome Panda arrived in Seattle (from Texas). His Human brought him to the mini forest, one of his favorite places, to celebrate his Gotcha Day. As always, we both had a great time!Barbara L.

55We love this sniffspot. It’s one of the few that provides a forest like environment and is enclosed and is big enough to wonder around for a while. And Grace is very nice and has left little personal touches for the visit. Thanks for sharing your wonderful property with us!John N.

55Great property and gracious host. She waited to greet me even though I was 30 minutes late due to traffic. Cool features on the property like a creek and tree house. Outhouse is a plus!Aly H.

55This was a Perfect secure place for me to test my dogs off leash. It was beautiful with grassy Meadows. The trees keep it from being too hot. The dogs seem to really enjoy themselves. The host was friendly and communicative. I will definitely be back. I recommend booking at least an hour so you can enjoy all there is to see.Cindy S.

55This is such an awesome place. Lots of trails to explore and a creek too. There are outhouses and lots of benches throughout the property. We brought a picnic and our two hours just flew by. We drove from Olympia and it was well worth the drive. Your dog will LOVE it here and so will you. Jennifer S.

55This is truly one of my favorite spots. It's like a little fairytale forest just an hour from Seattle. It feels SAFE which is very important to me after experiencing several dog attacks on hiking trails, Double Bluff, and at dog parks. I have two athletic dogs who need a lot of exercise plus brain enrichment. This spot is perfect! It's fully fenced, incredibly peaceful for me, and a lot of smells and obstacles for my pups. Also, Grace is an amazing host! One word of caution...on the way to the sniffspot entrance, you have to walk by a fenced pasture with goats and a horse - the goats are super friendly while the horse mostly ignores us. However, if your dog is reactive to farm animals, it's best to keep them leashed until you get over the hill and away from sight and smells of the pasture buddies. Carol W.

55Lovely spot! We stopped by the goats on the way in and the pugs were facinated, the goats seemed to be as well 😂. We hiked all around in the wooks and had a picnic by the creek, while out pups played in the water. Loved the welcome and the treats for our hungry boys. Above and beyond location and attention to detail from the host.

55Wonderful spot that totally tired even the most energetic dog out. Grace was kind and I loved all her personal touches (the welcome sign and post hike treats). We even saw a deer on the trail! Quiet, tranquil, and perfect.Callie S.

55This is an amazing SniffSpot. Grace is so friendly and warm. She provided a cute welcom sign and some treats for us and our pup. The entire property is fenced so we didnt have to worry about other dogs. We loved wandering the trails and checking out the different cabins. Mosley loved playing in the water. We even got to help socialize Mosely with the goats in a safe environment. I was also excited to buy a dozen fresh eggs which I never get to do living in the city. We are looking forward to our next visit to this SniffSpot and we will make sure to say HELLO to Grace. 🙂Beth M.

55We loved this place. My pups ran from one side of the property to the other. There’s a fantastic track in the back with small hills and green grass—just a peaceful, serene place to go. This is on our top ten list! It's another one that you don’t want to miss out on.Tye F.
