55A gem of a slice of property here. Beautiful river access. Lot’s of wildlife. Great communication, Worth the hour drive from Detroit area.
Try a long line if your dog chases wildlife as we saw a lot of rabbits and chipmunks and spotted deer tracks. Bridget T.

55My dogs loved it and that's why I'm giving it 5 stars, I feel like it was underwhelming for humans, I thought there would be a table by the water. But we made it work. Bug spray is a must. Eve K.

55Super cute spot! Our dogs looovedd it. I also loved the layout and how secluded it was. It felt like a nature tunnel. Which kept the dogs in a line for us. Felt like we could really give our pups freedom and they loved that. Plus allll the smells. 🥰 The host also let us book super last minute which was so appreciated. As you can see from the pictures, two happy dogs! they're both sleeping in the back seat while I type this. The only animal we saw was one Turkey for like 2 seconds so no biggie!Samantha S.

55Very good communication and ease of use. Signs up which helped a lot. There was a very nice mowed trail that went along side a small creek with multiple spots for my dog to hop in. She had chairs out for sitting and water for the dogs. I could hear other dogs barking in the distance but it was faint. Ran into no problems and we enjoyed burning some energy! Will be back! Lisa B.

55If I could rate this place, more than five stars, I absolutely would. The host was incredibly accommodating, and let us extend our time when I missed the block. We had an incredible time, hiking up and down throughout the river area and playing fetch my dog, enjoyed, jumping in and out of the river, and we enjoyed how beautifully maintained all of the trails are. It must’ve been an incredible amount of work to cut down all that brush so I can men’s you for it! We will definitely be back!Meagan C.

All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars.
