55We loved this spot and we are excited to make use of the amazing amenities that are provided on our next visit! There is lots of seating and shade for when it is warm. This was the perfect place to take our Husky mix rescue to burn off some energy as he still has some trouble socializing. Very well sign posted - we found where we were supposed to be, no problem! ๐ถโจJason & Ashley O.

55Really fun and cute spot! My first time using sniffspot for my pups first birthday. We had 6 dogs and about 10 humans. It was absolutely lovely! The dogs loved all the little amenities/play areas/etc..(trampoline, ball pit, sticks, a ton of tennis balls) and I loved that they set up happy birthday decorations for us. All of the humans said they would definitely do this again and I know the dogs would agree! Christy J.

55This location was amazing for a rescue dog field trip. This is one of the very few spots that extend into the canyon to give a beautiful view while enjoying the peace and quiet of the area. There is lots for your pup to do and we look forward to visiting this spot again in the future. Bring treats to place in the interactive jar game!Jessica G.

55We just had our first Sniffspot experience and it was impressive. The host thought of everything -- from balls to a chuck-it to an enrichment device to a trampoline to towels and a pooper scooper so that plastic poop bags in the landfill can be avoided. Ann R.

We also recommend reading reviews to check for park maintenance issues and reaching out to the host with any questions. And lastly, of course, check park hours.
