55Great spot, mud and all, but every place is muddy right now! My dog and I explored the three trails and appreciated that they were well marked and cleared of tree debris. The woods are lovely and there are a couple of sitting/viewing areas. Thanks for making this nice spot available.Andrea C.

55Great sniff spot! I was thrilled to find a spot that was fairly close in to the city, but was in nature. We had a great time exploring the trails. It was the perfect quiet spot for my reactive doggie to get to explore and have fun. We would love to return!Dana D.

552nd visit and explored each of three trails. One runs along the creek and has a switchback that connects up to the second trail so you could make a loop out of it. The other one goes up along the house and into a forest and also has a loop.
 The trails are very well marked with pink tape and white tape that shows when you are reaching the out of bounds.
 While the owners do a very nice job applying bark chips along the trails, expect some mud and wear your boots and bring a towel to wipe your dogs!!
 My dogs love this area and we got some good exercise in a half an hours time. 
 Oh, and great parking location!
 we will definitely be back! Kelly k.

55This place was a great choice! Our dog had a great time! The trails were VERY muddy and slick but we didn’t mind. There was plenty of area for him to explore and he left tired and happy! Brittany M.

55What a gem of a spot! Thank you for sharing your beautiful space. We had an absolute blast exploring the trails. There’s an incredible view, multiple, well marked trails, a creek, sturdy & clean benches to rest on, an awesome fort, and more! Lots to explore. The space is very well taken care of. Muddy in some parts if it’s been raining so wear proper shoes. Easy to find and park. Thank you again!!Rachel G.

55Beautiful forested and view trails. Wear boots if it’s wet! Our two Irish Setters had a great time and - happily - were worn out! There is a small farm stand too where you might find fresh eggs.Pam E.

55This is one of our favorite spots! The lovely running creek is worth the mud in the rainy months. Trails are nicely maintained and they’ve added a little rain shelter. It’s like having a personal slice of forest park. Kathryn F.

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. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines.

We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
