Lovely spot, I brought my two rescue pups here because they tend to be a bit reactive at public parks, this spot was perfect for us! Nice and quiet, my dogs had a blast and I enjoyed being able to relax while they explored. We will definitely be back!

Nice little spot, 4 foot fence with no gaps or holes. It was safe to unleash our dog. It was quiet while we were there. We will definitely visit again.

We had a lovely time with our chocolate lab puppy. Everything was so clean, and water and treats were left for us. We were very comfortable, and the yard is huge!

What a wonderful visit today! So much room for dogs to flourish-a huge open field for ball playing. Animals all around from chickens, goats, pigs, rabbits, to alpacas. The host was super friendly and even shared some farm knowledge with me. We can't wait to go back!! Thank you so much :)

One of my favorite spots. Plenty of toys, water, and poop bags. We were on the small plot today and our dogs had plenty of room to run and sniff around

My dogs had a blast. There was two gallon size bottles of water and a stainless steel water bowl for then and lots of fun toys to explore. Will revisit again for sure.

Absolutely perfect for my reactive dog. She has so much fun running and I was stress free knowing she wouldn’t encounter another dog. She was asleep before we pulled out of the driveway. We will be back!

We had an amazing time even in the rain. The area is large and fenced great, there was a kiddie pool, toys, chair and water bowl. Our dog is dog selective and this was a no stress and enjoyable retreat!

This space was perfect for my energetic and reactive dog. No other animals were seen, and there were occasional cars driving by. He definitely enjoyed his time!

This is our very first sniff spot experience and it was perfect! Tina was very helpful and the pasture was just what my dogs needed. There are some shaded areas in the pasture and very well fenced in. She has chairs available and a dog bowl you can use (BYOWater). We can't wait to come back!! I can't wait to come back

This spot was perfect in every way for our reactive dog. She had a huge amount of space to run and play, and she especially enjoyed splashing in the baby pool. The area was clean and had excellent shade for hot days.

Well maintained. Useable water spigot for a doggie pool. Toys, chairs, bowls - everything you need. Fully fenced. My dog had a great time.

This was our fourth time coming to this property and it's our favorite! The grounds are well kept and the large field gives so much room for running. Also, the host provides water bowls, tennis balls, and water refill in case if you run out. Besides how much my dogs love it, I also look forward to coming here each week now too!
