55Our pup absolutely loved his visit! It was the perfect open space for him to run and explore and it’s exactly what we were looking for. The host Caren was kind and welcoming and took us on a tour of the property where our pup saw goats and miniature horses and chased a couple squirrels. There was also fresh water and lots of toys available. We will definitely be coming back soon! Thank you, Caren!! ❤️🐾Rachelle & Jeff B.

55Carren and her husband Drasko were amazing hosts. The property is beautiful and spacious with substantial fencing all around. Despite my dog's reactivity, Drasko suggested he bring his dogs out to see how she would play and they had an amazing time chasing each other and walking the perimeter! I am planning a return trip soon! Tyler P.

55We had an excellent visit to Palmhill!  We were delayed on the way up due to road closure and Caren was nice enough to work with us on our delayed arrival. We enjoyed a big open field and then got a tour around the property off leash. Everything is fenced and he felt very safe. Dogs and humans had a blast! We will definitely visit again!Stephanie W.

55This place is doggy heaven! So much space for my little Malinois to run and play. She got a bit worked up over some squirrels but the owners were so kind and understanding of her triggers and gave her the best possible time of freedom out in the open spaces. Can’t thank them enough for their kindness and love they showed my little tripawd. Will be back soon! Parkavi T.

55My dogs had the BEST time running around the field. Plenty of room, lots to smell. We love this Sniffspot. There’s shade, lots of fresh water, toys and other amenities like sunscreen and bug spray. The space is very secure. Vickie C.

55This place is amazing! I believe Diego had the best day of his life here. Trees, lush grass, squirrels chirping, and so much room to roam and run. Caren is a fantastic hostess. Ample water buckets throughout the property. A large bucket of toys and balls plus seating in the 3 acre section. Caren took us on a walk along the paved driveway that goes along the perimeter of the property. Since the entire property is fully secure, Diego was off leash the entire time. Every dog deserves this experience. We will definitely be back, and bring my neighbors dog too.Pat H.

55Our first time using Sniffspot and such a wonderful experience with Caren!
Driving up, it was already such a beautiful view and property. She greeted us at the gate and gave our pup some treats, so sweet of her!
She then guided us to the gated area for dogs which was huge! And amazingly maintained. You can tell she takes care of the property and wants you to have a wonderful experience. There are toys provided as well as poopy bags, hand sanitizers and chairs. We even got to walk with her around a loop of the property.
Our pup had a blast! And we will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you for a great experience Caren!

55This is what sniffspot dreams are made of. There is a GIANT enclosed field with toys and supplies and several large buckets of water as well as a shelter from the sun and several chairs to sit. It's perfect. That alone would make this place a five star venue but it got even better because after awhile, Caren came and checked on us and offered a walk around the property. She's so gracious and generous with her time and her land. I was literally so happy for my dogs who ran from from place to place with absolute glee. We traveled nearly an hour from San Diego proper to get here. Definitely worth the trip. We stayed for 1.5 hours which was plenty of time. A must visit.Kelly W.

55What a great place! It's a very large area, there's a covered area for shade, dog toys available, even sunscreen and insect repellant available for use! My two small dogs loved the room to run around and romp! We were there late in the day, and left when it got too dark to see the dogs. Lol. The hosts were great, and ready to help and answer questions. We will book this park again (but maybe earlier in the day next time)! Lynn W.

55We had a blast here! As soon as we got here, the owner was waiting to let us in and handed us a bag of yummy and stinky treats for our dogs. So nice! Our dogs ran around so much and were able to chase the balls so far. My chihuahua rolled around to her heart's content. Owners provided lots of water buckets, toys, wet wipes, hand sanitizer, and waste bags. Our dogs are little so I pointed out a small hole in the fence, which the owners were very accommodating with and covered up right away. They even brought out a small water dish for our shorter dogs to reach, it was such a kind gesture! This place blew us away with it's beauty and cleanliness as well. We look forward to coming back!Andrea H.

55My pups had a wonderful time running around and exploring. Caren is so sweet! Once again, she gave us a bag of yummy treats to take home. They have been having some technical difficulties with the app, so I recommend sending them a message to let them know you're coming, before showing up. Such wonderful people ❤️ We drive about 45 minutes just to get here, and it's absolutely worth it! This is one of the few places that always has plenty of clean water, there is even a small water dish for the little ones! And there is everything else you would need, from poop bags to bug spray. It's truly so convenient and stress free. We love it here!Adelina C.

55I'll definitely be back. It's a drive for me from San Diego, but I love the large field so my Saluki can stretch out for a run, and that the field doesn't have troublesome stickers like goat head (hard for folks in our area to eradicate, so kudos to them). The hosts are lovely, attentive to making visits go smoothly. Margarat N.
