55What a wonderful space! Plenty of things to sniff and room to roam. It was really nice to not have to pack my own water or poop bags since they were provided. Kaitlyn E.

55This was our first Sniffspot experience, and this spot could not have been more perfect! My sister and I took our dogs here, and it was exactly what we wanted. We could let our dogs off the leash to run around, knowing that they would be safe in the fenced in field. My dog loved the doggy pool so much, he immediately laid his big butt down in it, haha. Haley was so nice, polite and accommodating. You will not be disappointed with this spot. Tracy H.

55This was a great spot to take our dogs!! Plenty of space for them to explore and run around. Quiet and secluded and a beautiful view. It was a great safe space for our dogs to get some exercise. They advertise correctly that it is uneven terrain so just wear proper shoes if you want to be able to run around with your dog. We will definitely come back! Lauren Z.

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.
