55A wonderful very secure spot with plenty for your dogs to explore, all while supervising in the comfort of seats in an A-frame. The directions can look intimidating but is actually really easy to get to. Jen C.

55Perfect space for the dogs to explore and run around. There was a small shade cover with seating and easily accessible water/bowls as well as a kiddie pool if your pup enjoys to get their paws wet. Would come again. Rebecca S.

55My dogs loved this ranch and the cool down shelter. My dogs enjoyed running through the pine trees. The place was secure and fenced in. Seeing horses on the driveway was a joy.Cecilia V.

55Great spot, with the directions it was easy to find. Nice size, you could easily sit at the table or under the shelter and see both dogs. Everyone had an amazing time and we discovered that one of my rescue dogs has had some agility training when we played with the agility equipment. Looking forward to booking this spot again.

55This SniffSpot was really great, it was completely fenced and secure with a shelter. I practiced agility with my dog and he also loved running in the open space fetching sticks. The spot was very picturesque too, so nice!Sandy N.

55This spot was amazing for my dog. It was fun trying to teach him how to do some of the agility course they had set up. I also really loved that there was a hose available so I could spray off his paws at the end. The shaded spot to sit was so nice. I will definitely take him back here! Emma W.

55Our three dogs really enjoyed themselves, including our nearly 17 YO pointer. The ramp from the higher ground entry level to the main field and the mowed edges where it was less steep were a little challenging for her, but she figured it out. Will return!Michelle G.

55Such a great and beautiful space for the dogs, we had such a good time! We got a little lost on the way there (user error), I had messaged Becki and she was very responsive and helpful, we were able to locate it pretty easily after speaking with her and she even extended our time since we were a little late. Will definitely visit again especially on a warm day would be fun as there is a covered area for people to sit (and dogs too) as well as a kiddie pool with access to water and a picnic table.

55This is our second time here, and it was great! This time there were horses right on the other side of the fence. They weren't scared of the dog, but he was pretty sure they might eat us, lol. We made as much peace with them as we could and called it a day. Olivia C.
