HOST REPORTS

Sometimes

If my dogs sense your arrival, they will start barking inside the house, which might be heard from the parking area, but the sniffspot is far from our house. Also, as of 11/2022 our neighbor got a white dog that loves to bark on their side of the fence close to the creek if it spots you. If that cute yappy dog bothers you, you might want to stay up the hill instead to avoid it, which is more private anyway. And I've noticed it'll stop barking.. eventually. :(

Depending on where our 2 goats roam at the time, they may or may not be visible before the sniffspot entrance area, but they are in their enclosed space. Our neighbors have 🐓🐔 but they’re far. You might hear gobbling 🦃 too from our neighbors.

HOST REPORTS

Sometimes

but it's not in the area where the dogs will be playing around. Hubby and/or hubby's friend/s might do some work in the barn, workshop, garage, the area surrounding the house, and relatives might come visit unannounced or even deliveries. Once in a while our neighbors will also be seen or heard doing stuff in their own yard & unfortunately we don’t have control of their noise. As of 8/14/2024 we have new neighbors (property across the street from Jordan Road to our left, with the red barn). They have transformed their yard into a dirt bike playground, so just warning you about that. 🤷‍♀️🙄

Location

Arlington, Washington

Description

Our property is shy of 12 acres, 9+ acres of which we're sharing as a private off leash dog space or Sniffspot. The entrance is over the bridge where the creek is and 'From Creek to Back of Property' is all yours to explore. You may chain the gate & unleash your doggies right after the bridge. Dogs might run down the creek for a splash or drink. Continue on to our family campground, there are picnic tables you could use. Then, up the hill you go to 'hike up the mini forest', free to roam around, listen to the birds, squirrels and other critters and sounds that nature brings you. You'll find seating areas while your dogs are at play, feel free to use them. Enjoy a picnic with your loved ones if you're up for it on one of the cabin porches or covered / uncovered picnic tables. The back of property behind fence is DNR land, so rest assured you’re on your own private little world with your furry buddies. The mini forest has some large walking paths and smaller trails scattered about, also some open meadows and is at a peaceful wooded setting. This is where I go to unwind and relieve my head of stress and worries. It’s my place of meditation, while my dogs sniff and romp around like crazy, do their zoomies and play hide n seek! Forget about the gym, you'll get your exercise here with your dogs. As mentioned, there are cabins on the property. Sniffspot is unavailable if the Cabins are booked or vice versa. Booking is through Hipcamp (hipcamp.com). Name of listing: 'Grace E.'s Mini Forest Cabins'. Check it out and Search listing through the hipcamp site. Saturdays are usually blocked IF there's Hipcamp bookings. I would Unblock the hours for Sniffspot use if that day isn't booked for Hipcamp, so please try to check back, who knows that day might be available! Anyway, hope you enjoy your little 'hike up the mini forest’…

Hazards

HOST NOTE

Wear hiking boots, rain or dirty boots. Bear in mind that you’re in the country out in the woods, we have goats & when it rains watch out for muddy areas. Depending on the time of the day and season, bugs may be present, so please bring bug spray. When it gets windy, watch out for falling branches, limbs and twigs from old trees. There is also a section where we stack metal piles to be disposed off later, please pardon that eyesore. Occasionally, again, since you're in the country, by the mountains, our neighbor would once in a while do target practice or do some annoyingly loud shooting towards the DNR, you might also hear fireworks, even logging noise at times. :( Behind the fish ladder, some areas of the creek might be deep and muddy, so watch your pups closely or try to avoid that area. This spot has a water feature, make sure to review these guidelines for visiting spots with water before visiting: https://help.sniffspot.com/article/167-how-to-keep-your-dog-safe-around-pools-and-water

Bison and Peaches, are my 2 English Shepherds. In July of 2024, Kora Belle, an Australian Cattle Dog, was added to our family. The 3 furballs, along with hubby, Brian & myself enjoy hiking up our little hill, mini forest out back & sometimes with our goats. I found out about Sniffspot through Facebook. I saw a video of a couple talking about Sniffspot & loved the idea! So here I am doing the same thing & what a blessing it is. I love it especially when I see the faces of the parents & their 4 legged babies after the visit, tired, maybe dirty, but happy!

Tiffany's 3 Acres Fully Fenced Forested Trails.

Fully Fenced
3 acres

Welcome to our trail! This is a wooded path, mostly flat, with a couple of gentle rolling hills. Parking: On arrival, pull into the driveway and please park directly to your right in the grass. You will see a “guest parking sign” as well as an entrance sign and post with dog bags. Navigating the trail: On arrival, Keep your dog leashed unless they have perfect recall. Walk past the entrance sign and once you go through the first gate, you can let the pups off leash to run free. The main trail is maintained, follow it around the property, and come to the very end where you will find a gate with an “Exit” sign. Please leash back up at this point until you reach your car. (You may also come across gates that say “do not enter”… please don’t open these, you will no longer be fenced in.) You’re welcome to access the little seasonal creek but it is outside the fence line. Please shut that gate when you’re done using it. During the rainy months the trail can get muddy, we recommend boots for you and a towel for your dogs. In the spring and summer you will find wildflowers, and maybe even some berries! (Always only eat fruit you are 100% sure you can identify) In the fall and winter the leaves/foliage get sparse, so it’s easier to see the houses and properties through the woods, but the neighborhood is overall remote and quiet so it should still feel very private. Our dogs: We have 4 dogs that live here. They won’t have access to the area, but you might hear them bark when you arrive.

Lake Cavanaugh K9 Ranch

Unfenced
22 acres

22 forested acres with private trails and an open field area located in the power line clearing. Includes private land access to state forest trails with views. Once you park you will see the trail entrance into the forest in front of you. Take the trail down to the creek. Water levels in the creek vary depending on the time of year. Cross the creek using the foot bridge and head through the forest. In about .3 miles you will come out into the powering line clearing. Feel free to explore everything in front of you and to the left (north). There are several wide open grass spaces in the power line to play fetch or just let the dogs run and be dogs. I will send you detailed instructions for the hike up the mountain upon request. This is a real hike and I recommend hiking attire. Please bring water for yourself and your dogs. The hike is about 3.5 miles and 800 feet of elevation gain. I recommend booking at least 2 hours to complete. If you want to hang out and enjoy the views you may want to book more than 2 hours.
