This place was awesome! It was easy to find, clean, and had a ton of toys and space. It was our first time there, but we'll definitely go back. Our Doberman really enjoyed the property. The view was amazing! Thanks!

Great spot! Really big space, lots of fun toys. There is a hose and large feed container for water. It is clean, beautiful and quiet. Will definitely be back 😄!

Large, well-maintained spot to hang out with your dog. Always has plenty of toys and the hanging balls are great if you have a dog that is genetically fulfilled by biting and tugging. The longer grass in the middle is great for searching if your dog knows how to sniff out a ball. The hanging balls have also been redone and are working line german shepherd proof lol Always a blast!

Great spot! Tons of room for the dogs to run and explore, gate is totally secure all the way around, and plenty of toys to use. There is a nice shaded seating area at the top too. Also nice they have little trash cans for used doggie bags throughout since it is quite a big space. Overall great spot, will definitely return!

Big, sunny field. Very well kept and well fenced. My dog really enjoyed exploring, and I enjoyed the beautiful country. I only heard a dog barking from far away. I definitely recommend this spot.

My puppers had a great time! She sniffed every inch of the 2 acres available to her!!! Property itself was clean, lots of watering stations, waste bags available! Tons of Toys for the doggos, lots of different seating areas for the humans. Even a covered area with a porch swing! We will definitely be coming back! Thanks Jim!!!!

This was our first time visiting this or any sniffspot. We were very pleased with our visit. Directions were clear and the spot was easy to find. Very secure for my two large dogs. Would definitely come back again!

We had a fantastic time! The area is extremely well-kept, and I appreciated the fence for my two escape artists. There's lots of room to run and play. One of my dogs loved the tug balls! We will definitely be back. I have zero complaints, as everything provided was well thought out and provided my dogs with great exercise and entertainment.

We had a great time running around. Our puppy is still pretty nervous and takes a little bit to warm up in a new area. So much so that she refuses to go potty anywhere other than our backyard - I was hoping this might help but she was more interested in exploring. Haha! Love the swing on and the little desk house! They had so many toys! We brought a chuck it but quickly learned that I didn’t need it. My son probably played more than our puppy - both were equally exhausted after! Will come back!

A great space for dogs to run around. Plenty of toys and places to sit (for us). The shaded swing was exceptional.

Cassie B.

The best place for my dogs to play. Huge area to run fast, enough shade to keep cool. Secure fencing to stay safe. Has the best of everything!

Erin F.

We loved this spot! It had so much for the dogs to play with. It had everything each of our dogs needed - a kiddie pool and toys for one dog and swallows to chase for the other. Both left happy and satisfied! It had a nice porch swing with shade for the humans, as well as a portapotty. I also liked how the grasses were well maintained and the dogs had no fleas or ticks from coming to this spot (we’ve been to other sniff spots where there were a lot of ticks). The parking spot/cones are right where you turn off onto their road, so you don’t have to drive down the driveway! FYI for reactive dog owners - There were some people going for a walk on the Main Street (3 people passed in the 2 hours we were there). It didn’t bother our dogs because the property is long and you can get good distance away from it. We also heard chickens and dogs barking. None of it bothered our dogs. Thanks so much for hosting and we will definitely be back in the future!

Fabulous spot. If I win the lottery I will be knocking on his door offering to buy it because it is perfect for my dogs! The fence was secure. It was clean. The amenities were wonderful and the decor was very aesthetically pleasing and welcoming. It felt so nice to be in the country, breathing in fresh air and seeing the chickens and listening to donkeys nearby. I brought a big group and the livestock were far enough away that the dogs were able to focus on me and get rewarded for that so I could work on their socialization & manners. I hope to make this spot a regular outing for us!

Great spot. Has fresh water, a great rest area for you and your pups and endless toys for fun.

Great spot! This was our first visit and worth the almost 30 minute drive! Secure fencing throughout, nice shade and plenty of thoughtful toys. My girl left happy and tired! There were some goats and chickens on the other side of the fence, which my dog and I enjoyed watching!
