55Beautiful yard. Plenty of space for Nellie to sniff around! I would highly recommend booking with Snow. We will definitely be back on a cooler day.
55Our two big dogs loved this spot! Plenty of smells to sniff and room to stretch their legs. Seating was comfortable for the humans too! Looking forward to going back.
55Great yard and well maintained! If you have a dog-reactive dog, stay to the inner yard as neighbors do walk their dogs along the street the outer yard bumps up to. But there’s plenty of space and it let Squee have a fun hour of sniffs and playing
55I brought our foster dog for a meet and greet with potential adopters and Snow’s spot was perfect! It’s lots of land for them to run and explore with very secure fencing. Plus they have a larger yard and a smaller yard that makes it perfect for dogs meeting for the first time to make friends or for smaller dogs in the smaller yard and bigger dogs in the bigger yard. She also had a kiddie pool setup and water bowls and toys. Plus there is a playground for kids and a cool tree swing for people. It’s a beautiful spot with lots of beautiful landscaping and plenty of shade. We will definitely be back!
45Beautiful place
45Great place lots of shade my dog lady had a great time wasn’t sure where exactly where I was aloud to go on the property would have been nice to meet the owners I was a little uncomfortable being there but would definitely like to go there again Thank You stay safe and well
55Beautiful spot. Sun and shade to run and play in. Two areas that provide different opportunities for Marley to explore and enjoy. We will be back.
55 First time using Sniffspot with both my dogs. Our Mugsy doesn’t do great on a leash, so this was perfect for him to be in a new environment for fresh sniffs and more room to roam. It was fun to watch them just enjoy playing around the yard which is very spacious. A lot of interesting trees, plants for them to sniff. We are definitely going again. The host was very responsive to all my questions.
45Such a wonderful spot! Very secure with plenty of space to run around for the pups. They made good use of the water bowl and had loads of fun doing loops around the deck.
55So much fun. Dogs had a blast

Historic and scenic property with natural barriers

I own 11+ acres in West Chester (bordering Downingtown), although I’m currently offering access to the 4.5 acres that is not fully forested. The side of the property you’ll be enjoying has the mill which was built in the 1760s and converted into a home in the 1970s. This strip of land is bordered by a creek on the one side, and a millrace on the other. The millrace is where the water used to run when the mill was operating many moons ago. Both the creek and millrace have water, although the creek has proven to be much more alluring to visiting dogs. The deepest area in the creek is approximately 8ft. There is a bench there for you to sit and enjoy the view while your dog swims in the water. There is another, more private area, where your dog can get easy access to the creek water. I can provide you with a chair to enjoy this area, and will likely already have it there upon your arrival. There are steep embankments for both the creek and the millrace so it would be an effort for your dog to cross them to “escape.” At the end of my 4.5 acre property, the land comes to a peninsula where the millrace and creek meet to become one body of water. This peninsula serves as a natural barrier although my friend’s young German Shepherd did jump out into this water and after a deer on one frightful day. Fortunately, we got him home/back but I think it’s prudent for me to disclose this harrowing event for the safety of your fur baby. There is an outdoor stone patio where you and your pup(s) can relax in the shade. Here you’ll find a filled water dish for your pup(s) to enjoy and a trashcan for your dog waste. If past dog visitors are any indication of future visits, your pup(s) will likely be thirsty from all the exploring, good smells and open land to run and play. I have one of those tennis ball throwing devices that help you throw a ball super far that you’re welcome to use too. I ask that you don’t encourage your pup(s) to chase after the wildlife here, not just for their sake, but for the safety of your pup(s) too. I think the hawks might have put a dent in the small wildlife around here. You won’t see many small animals like squirrels or bunnies, although you are likely to see deer. If your dog is a young/strong “chaser” you might want to visit with a leash. You’ll also find less snuggly wildlife here like snakes and ticks. I ask that you use your best judgement in supervising your dog(s) and be sure to check them for ticks before leaving. Of course at your first visit, I’ll give you a tour of the layout with your dog leashed to ensure your comfortability with the space. I’d ask you to kindly replace the raft in the creek should your visit cause it to pop. For future consideration: I have about 7.5 more acres of land (on the other side of Harmony Hill Rd) that is forested, rather secluded, and also bordered by the creek. Here you’ll find the remnants of the dam that used to feed the mill, and some amazing water landscapes including large rocks and crystal clear water. I’m slowly trying to establish a walking trail in this area but it’s been hard keeping up with all the overgrowth. I’d be open to bartering where you would help cut back the trail overgrowth in exchange for your dog enjoying the forested area.
