55Our dogs loved this Sniffspot. I can see why it has so many 5 stars. Perfect place for our dogs. Big enough for the dogs to run but small enough so you don’t lose track of them. Excellent communication with host. We will definitely be back.Cyndi W.

55Great large yard for dogs to run!! Very nice hosts, they had plenty of water and toys available for the dogs. Covered seating area for humans. If there has recently been rain, recommend bringing a towel for muddy paws. Fairly quiet area (little traffic noise). We will be back!!X X.
