55Beautiful house, yard, and neighborhood. Several comfortable places to sit and a nice, breezy canopy to sit under. Lots of good things to smell as well, for dogs not humans. Unless you want to Julia H.

55Great space with a wide open yard. The owner is very thoughtful and has left out a big bucket of water, dog treats, toys, and towels to dry off your pup if they needed to be hosed off. We will definitely go back.Shelly B.

55This was a great first experience with Sniffspot! One thing to note is the sign indicating that you are in the right place (A Sniffspot sign) was facing inwards, so you have to go up to the gate to make sure you are in the right place. Easy to do, but just something for future users to be aware of (or for the hosts to fix)
The backyard was in a quiet neighborhood with lots of street parking. The grassy area was really big so my dogs both got to run around a ton. The neighbor was doing some tree work but it didn’t distract or bother my dogs. There were comfortable seats for the humans and a table.
The hosts were very kind and had some toys and treats, in case you forgot yours. They also had a water bucket and bowl for guests and the hose was also conveniently located. There was also a trash can to dispose of poop bags so you didn’t have to take it with you.
Overall, it was a fantastic experience and I can’t wait to take Jack and Rose back!Mari T.

55It's a beautiful area to bring your dog to. So easy to find, clean, no gaps in the fence, etc.
I hope to bring Sal back here at least once a week. Probably more often. The fence is high enough that a small dog like mine, feels so safe and secure. There was no trash or scary stuff to watch out for. Aleta M.

We also recommend reading reviews to check for park maintenance issues and reaching out to the host with any questions. And lastly, of course, check park hours.
