55This is such a magical spot! Even with the cold weather it is so much fun. The extra warmth from the fire makes it extra special. The trails have wonderful sniff’s for my dogs. Linda V.

55Beautiful space. Peaceful and perfect for a nice run for my dogs. The fire pit was a nice addition and the host got it going for us before we got there. Will definitely return. Beth C.

55We had a great time today! Our dogs are completely wiped out and tongues are dragging. The add-on of the fireplace is a really nice touch on a chilly day. We can’t wait to come back! Really well done sniff spot. Bridget W.

55Loved the huge area fence off for the dogs. There was a pitcher of water and a water bowl out for the dogs as well. And the ability to have a fire is a great add on.Jourdan C.

55What a fantastic space! Instructions were clear to find it, and the fenced in space was clean and had so much for pups to do! He also left maps of where the unfenced exploration zones are, which was so helpful. My dogs were SO HAPPY! We didn't see any other dogs while we were there-- good for my reactive pup!Madeleine D.

55We really enjoyed our first time there. Tomorrow I’ll bring some water. There was no problem with not having it fenced. My dogs stayed pretty much on the trail and are happy tired dogs. I would recommend this spot.Annette B.

55This was a great sniff spot! There was a very nice trail around the property that was wooded at the edge of a wheatfield. Our dogs (a rhodesian and a shepard) had a lovely time running, playing and sniffing of course! Water and a bowl was provided . We will return again for some sanctuary and peace.Tammy C.

55Beautiful spot to let the dogs run! Big fenced in area, as well as trails around the property and a big open field (not fenced). Was too cloudy to see Mt. Spokane today from the field, but looking forward to coming back! Cassidy C.

55Great communication from the host. It was a little muddy when we went (which the host informed us of), but good muck boots worked fine. I loved having the opportunity to let our dogs run around the property and explore a bit off-leash.Jewel R.

55Our first time here. It would help if the SniffSpot sign was closer or more visible from the road, we both drove past. The fence area was great. There was a shelter, but it appeared to be more for storage. Bonnie S.

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. Our hiking trails tend to be outside the city, which lends to more privacy, but it is also important to follow typical hiking safety precautions, such as potentially having trail maps.
