55What a unique property! It took me a minute to get my bearings, but Kandi sends detailed instructions. If you follow those, you’re good! Side note: I did not have cell service there so make sure you have the details saved. We loved the little hike up and it was perfect for our old dogs (and old us). Beautiful views! My dogs loved wandering and sniffing. Kandi’s kids/family were out, but we all kept to ourselves. Our dogs are fine with strangers, but she notes to let her know if your dogs are not and she will accommodate. Overall, this is a great sniff spot with an all-to-yourself hike! It gets warm up the hill so make sure to bring water.
55The best sniffspot I’ve been to! The area is huge and there is so much to explore. We went on the trail and I was nervous because I have a puppy who doesn’t have the best recall but it was perfect and I was able to train him too. He would run and then stop and wait. We went down to the pond and they immediately jumped in, chased each other around the property and had a blast! 10/10 would visit again. Make sure it is bath day when you visit if your dogs like the water lol
35A little surprised that we weren't greeted. The property is large and appeared to be under construction in some areas. It was difficult to find a right spot for our puppy...we ended up playing in a dirt lot which was fine, then walked towards the front of the house to be in the shade and grass but it was so over grown and there was no water in the pot on the lawn. That's okay too, my husband used the hose. Finally ended up playing fetch in the street in front of house. The drive there was nice and the pup was tired so mission accomplished. I highly suggest putting a large map out front or at least greeting the guest. Thank you for sharing your property!
55This was our first ever sniff spot and we had an absolute blast! The dogs loved the pond and all the space to roam and sniff. The host was so kind with me and all of my questions. Location was totally safe, no other animals at all, and felt very secure to let them explore. We will definitely be back.
55 Very expansive location!
55It took us a minute to figure out which two-story house had the trail with a beautiful view, but we found it, and my two jacks approved. We give it eight paws up and look forward to coming back and going further on that trail, if possible
35I told the host before we arrived that my dog is not aggressive, but can be nervous, so I requested the space to be private. We arrived and immediately saw a Great Pyrenees off leash at the gate. So we decided to park in front of the house instead, thinking we went to the wrong place. We start walking in and there’s four children running around and bouncing on the trampoline. Immediately my dog was on edge and not having a good time. I figured we could walk up the trail to have some privacy, only to be greeted by 2 large coyotes in broad daylight. I understand this host has children and other people staying on the property, but this should be much more visible in the listing when Sniffspot is known to be for private, off-leash areas (and marketed towards reactive dogs). I only recommend this spot to friendly dogs with a perfect recall. Be extra vigilant as coyotes are abundant.
55Such an amazing area! It truly felt like your own cowles mountain, there’s a walk up to the trail and then an incline to the top. It’s a beautiful view and great for adventurous dogs. I wouldn’t recommend bringing small puppies or dogs who don’t have good recall, the trail zig zags so it’s very easy for your dog to not be seen while you are walking. I can’t wait to be back and try out the other trail on the property!!
55This was definitely one of our favorite sniffspots! A bit of a drive from San Diego but 100% worth it. Absolutely gorgeous property and kind hosts!
55This place was amazing and my pup had the best time! There's tons and tons of land for him to explore and be off leash. We shut the gate in the front so that it was fully fenced in and didn't have to worry about him at all. We walked through some of the trails and he got to explore and get all his energy out. The hosts were very responsive and helpful. We will definitely be back!

I am a wife and mother of 5 daughters! We love dogs but don’t currently have any. We live on a 10 acre property that we love and is perfect for dogs, so we thought we’d share it with you!❤️ We DO live here with 5 kids who play on the property. We have friends over and love to be outside. If your dog has a hard time with strangers or is aggressive, please tell me ahead of time and I’ll do my best to move everyone inside. 🤞🏻
