I loved this Sniffspot! The host was very accommodating and had a welcome area upon arrival. There were signs around the property so you could easily find the Sniffspot areas. I can’t wait to return.

Pups loved it! They were able to walk on the trail off leash which is not something we can normally let them do. Host had some treats and an agility course, and a few extra things that I was not expecting. would recommend :)

We had a great time, the yard was spacious and clean. There were dogs visible who were a little loud but they were two yards over.

Great spot for your pups to stroll and sniff around. The spot had ample toys, supplies (like hand sanitizer, bandaids, treats, etc.) and fresh water for my pup! Milo had a great time exploring the backyard with many of toys and equipment to sniff around. There’s quite a few objects in the yard (kids playground, trampoline) but Milo still had ample room to play a round of fetch. One note to cat reactive dog parents - there is an outside cat that was hanging around the front porch area when we left. Just something to be mindful of when entering / exiting the space. Other than that - an absolutely wonderful experience! Milo and I will definitely be back!

A wonderful location with everything that you could ever need from poop bags to bug spray! Great toys and add-on options. We would highly recommend adding on the pool option for your visit. It was a huge hit with our pup! Plenty of space for dogs to run and play fetch. Great shade coverage and chairs to sit if needed. The host was also so sweet and clearly goes above and beyond! We can’t wait to visit again.
