55Excellent communication and arrival details, lovely grounds to walk and sniff! There’s a wonderful welcome area with a much appreciated out house for humans :-) There’s lovely chaise lounges in the shade, overlooking an amazing view. We hope to be back, and look forward to seeing how the flora and fauna changes through the seasons. Patricia T.

55Lovely spot for my two rescues. I was a bit worried at first for my blind dog, but I kept an eye on her and they had a great time. Both were passed out on the ride home. Very quiet, saw some birds.
Follow the instructions and you won’t have any issues (fantastic and detailed). We left a bit early with the bugs after us! One lovely bee seemed to want to go home with us after hanging out on my car for so long! Thanks for making your space available. I’ll continue to take my rescues and fosters here!Lillian T.

55This is my first time trying Sniffspot and I feel like I’ve hit the jackpot already! I have been wanting off leash time with my dog Xenon for a while now and this had it all, trails chairs, tables for relaxing and perfect ambiance! The directions were clear and the whole area was well taken care of. So thrilled to have found this spot! Melody R.

55Good directions, clear layout upon arrival greatly appreciated. We walked all over, my dog had a good sniff and then enjoyed chasing her ball. Flawless first experience with SniffSpot and this location. We will be back, having purchased a membership!Cynthia F.

55First time visiting and we loved it! A little tricky to find (for me) but I was able to turn around down the road and then found the gate quickly after that. Lots of hills. Bring good shoes. I let my dogs off leash once we got to the flat patio part and they did great with recall. I kept the harnesses on just incase though since it was our first time. There was water running through the hill which the dogs loved 🥰. We had fun. Highly recommend this spot and the host is a great communicator. Aveleigh O.

55I was unable to enter the property, there is no cel service so I was not able to get in touch with the host. BUT: I am giving a five star rating because as soon as my host realized the problem she refunded my money. Since I had to drive away to contact the host I decided to leave but I am going to return another time. Kate B.

55Very nice open space for the dogs. A bit hard to get to because the gate code has to be entered quite a few times before it opens and there is no cell service. But other than that it is perfect. Mint A.

55Great, open spot, tucked away in the canyon in a beautiful setting. Kept our dogs on a long lead, but might try off leash next time. They had fun exploring, and the amenities for humans were nice on a hot day!Trish D.

55If you don't mind (or, better yet, enjoy)dust and dirt road driving, followed by hiking the same, then this is the spot!
Its amazingly beautiful, and depending on what you choose to do it can be physically challenging.
If you're not sure that you can control your dog off leash, then this is not a place to test it. There's so much for a dog to explore, but if you're capable of handling a long leash, then the 20 ft leash available to borrow will let your dog have all the fun while still being relatively safe. I had mine on 100 ft leash, but could have been fine with 50 ft.
Amenities are very well kept up with.
Make sure your car can handle steep slopes and serpentine roads. Liza P.
