55Love the holiday decorations! Phyllis puts so much into making her spot a novel and enjoyable experience every single time. We had so much fun looking for new hidden treasures and dressing up the pups.
55What a magical hideaway! Directions were excellent, parking was clearly marked, and the play area was decorated for the season with lots of little hidden treasures!
55It's our 2nd visit. Same as before, it's a very well maintained beautiful area. We all enjoyed the time again!
55This was a really peaceful Sniffspot, even though I’ve been to some other ones it is the only one that is completely fenced, but I cannot hear any cars. I have a dog who doesn’t like to hear cars. He got hit by a car when he was young. We were both hit in a crosswalk so this is a very special place for him. my other dog had a lovely time. It’s a great place to play hide and seek and chase.  there is also a sandpit and I don’t know what it is about sand but dogs absolutely love to dig in sand The fencing was secure enough to contain both my 90 and 107 pound German shepherds
55We had the best time at this sniffspot! It was perfect for my dog who loves to take her time meandering. I'm very grateful for a fully enclosed, woodsy space. The spot is full of fun and whimsical decorations and the host went out of her way to be welcoming and communicative. I'm looking forward to bringing my dog back here!
55This spot is such a delight. In addition to being safe and secure, much work goes into keeping the trails and paths clear and mud-free. And every visit yields new surprises around every turn (extra amazing as we are often here twice a week). Awesome spot, awesome owner, can’t wait to visit again!
55Such a fun treat to bring the pups here!!! All my pups love running & exploring this magical spot 🧚🍄🌲
55Frost on the ground had potential for slipping. Owner was very kind to give us a heads up prior to our arrival. Fresh wood chips. Great new sniffs throughout the park. The 2BougieBernardz love the woods to run through and the open area for chase.
55You won’t find a nicer, kinder hostess than Phyllis. You also won’t find a more beautiful spot where you don’t have to worry about your safety and the safety of your dogs. SO many smells, get their zoomies out without concern for keeping a constant eye on them. You’re gonna love it!
55The place is very clean and well maintained. Both our dogs and we had a great time! We will definitely come back again!

Our dogs are mainly in the house, but may periodically be in our fenced backyard that is some 150 feet from the gate to the sniff spot with very limited sight lines. We will make an effort to keep our dogs in the house during guest visits as much as possible. Additionally, if you notify me that your pup is particularly sensitive to hearing or seeing other dogs from a distance, I will ensure my dogs are inside. We also have one neighboring property where there is sometimes a barky dog off in the distance through the forest. I have never seen the dog, only heard it. The property owners do not live there, but they do visit the property and sometimes they have their dog with them.

We have three hens that are in a secure chain link run. The run is next to the path that leads from the parking area to the entrance of the sniff spot. We have installed a panel along that side of the run that will help provide a visual barrier. The sniff spot gate is about 30 ft from the chicken run. Once dogs are in the spot, any notice of the chickens will soon be replaced by the sheer joy of the open space to explore!

Typically it will just be myself and my husband and we will mainly be inside our house. We have a home gym that we may be using inside the shop that you will walk past with your dog(s) on the way to the spot entrance. We do get the occasional Amazon or other delivery. The driveway is a good distance from the sniff spot. There is one neighboring property that has a huge yurt off in the distance through the woods. The owners visit fairly often so there are times you may hear a generator, voices, and sometimes their barky dog. The good news is that all of this activity and noise is from a distance through the woods, so typically you do not see much of anything, just hear it from a distance.

Entrance gate is always open. Drive up our very long, steep driveway. If you encounter a delivery or other driver coming the opposite way, one person will need to back up. There is one meadow area about halfway along the driveway where a person could pull out to let the other pass. There is also a circular driveway at the top.

Location

Description

High Rock meadow is a 2+ acre securely-fenced natural meadow, surrounded by forest. Please note that this is NOT a manicured lawn space; it is a sloping meadow with uneven footing and heavy ground cover. You can explore a network of walking trails that wind through the perimeter forest, while your dogs romp in the meadow and zoom along the trails. There is no end to sniffing material in this 2-acre playground! Again, the terrain in this spot is uneven and sloping, with some steep areas on the trails and possible muddy areas. Sturdy shoes or boots are recommended. Those with mobility issues may have difficulty moving about in this spot. Additionally, we are located in a rural neighborhood and there are times when neighbors practice shooting. This is more likely to happen on weekends, so please keep this in mind when scheduling with dogs who are distressed by loud noises. I'm currently accepting bookings up to 1 month out. Finally, I use a Facebook page to post pictures, videos, updates, last minute openings & discount codes, etc. related to our spot. Please like or follow our page if you are interested. Search for "High Rock Meadow Sniffspot" in Facebook. We also have Instagram (@HighRockMeadow) but I'm still learning and I'm not very good at it! We also love to get tagged on social media, so...

Cleanliness

100% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

Hazards

The natural meadow area of the property has very uneven footing (cracks and holes from mountain beavers) with vegetation cover, so extreme caution should be used when walking in the meadow (dogs do fine with their four feet!) There are a few areas with blackberry brambles and small runners that cross in the meadow and can cause tripping (we are continually working to locate and remove these as well as the large berry vines). There are some stinging nettles starting to emerge, and we will be working hard to remove as they can cause swelling if dogs touch them (they are mostly located in the areas of the larger berry patches, and along the back part of the fence. Established trails through the perimeter forest have decent footing but can also have some uneven ground, some steep areas, exposed roots etc. Take extra care when walking in the forest areas that have not been established as walking trails. If there are strong gusty winds, please stay in the meadow and out of the forest as limbs and trees can fall.

Extras

Birthday "Paw-ty" Package$30

Includes set-up with decorations, special treats, dog bubbles, goodie bags for each doggy guest (liver treats & High Rock Meadow coupon), and a bandana & party hat for the guest of honor. When booking, ensure there is an open hour prior to your start time (I will need to block this for set-up) and include a note indicating the number of guests (doggy & human), the birthday boy/girl's name & age. I would also love to have a picture of the guest of honor (attach this in the chat function).

Additional rules

While we expect guests to make every effort to locate and pick up their dog's poop, we understand that "poop happens", especially in an area with the size and natural terrain/ground cover of High Rock Meadow. We greatly appreciate guests who graciously choose to pick up poop they discover (using provided bags), regardless of the dog that may have produced it, knowing that another gracious guest will get the one they missed! *Bringing kids is fine, but PLEASE supervise them at all times to make sure they are respectful of the place. Please do not let them play with or move the figurines that are hidden in the forest. *We keep extra rolls of poop bags inside the dispenser on the inside of the gate post. If you use the last bag on a roll, please open the door on the dispenser and start a new roll. Thanks! * Please use garbage can inside the gate for dog waste and used wipes only (we have visiting bears). * The Sniffspot supply box has clean water bowls, towels, wipes, first aid kits (human & dog), mosquito repellent, hand sanitizer, and a few toys. Jugs of fresh water are just outside the box. * Please empty any used water bowls and leave them upside down in the crate to the left of the supply box, along with used toys. We plan to provide enough clean bowls daily for each guest to have a fresh one for their dog(s). * Small towels (in the "Clean Laundry" bag) are available for drying seats (and dogs). Please deposit any used towels into the "Dirty Laundry" bag inside the supply box. * We also greatly appreciate guests who return any supplies such as wipes, bug spray, etc. to the Sniffspot supply box at the end of your visit. * Please let us know if you used any first aid items from the kit so we can replace, and be sure to let us know if you encountered any unexpected hazards, along with a good description so we can work to fix. * Please no smoking or alcohol (Sniffspot policy) on the property. * Please make every effort to be on time so you will not meet other guests on the driveway (do not arrive early or leave late). Thank You!

I am a retired IT professional who lives on 10 acres of beauty with my husband and two boerboels (South African mastiffs). We fenced two acres of our property so our big guardian breed dogs could run free safely. We decided to share this amazing space with others through Sniffspot.
