55This was my first sniff spot and we had a wonderful time, the dogs had a blast going in and out of the creek. If you’re older and/or have bad knees, it is little steep but there were walking sticks available at the entry that my neighbor was able to use. Would definitely recommend and come again. Thanks for sharing!Lanell N.

55Really beautiful spot tucked into a forested area. Easy to find. The dogs loved running through the trails and cooling off in the creek that ran through it. We all enjoyed our time there. Highly recommend. Yukiyo O.

55Such a fun spot! Beautiful piece of forest with apparently lots of good smells. Our dogs had a blast running all over, climbing fallen trees, and hopping over the creek. Plenty of sticks for throwing, too. A total gem!Elizabeth l.

55This was our first sniffspot experience and we absolutely loved it! Our dog Ozzy ran through the forest, jumped in the creek and played fetch with a toy left out by the owners. He had the best time and so did we, we'll definitely be back!Casey R.

55My dog had an amazing time here. It was a beautiful forestry area with a creek that my dog loved playing in. The paths weren’t too difficult to traverse and they provided a cute spot to sit and a treat basket. Hope R.

55This spot was AWESOME! I'm always a little anxious my first time at a new SniffSpot, and I did not need to be here. Very clear signage indicated where to park and where the doggy trails start. There was also a lovely little note sharing the history of the place, and why Zach and his family opened up their property to the public.
My pup LOVED getting to zoom through the trails. The area was very well maintained, making it easy for me to follow him. There were no other dogs around. My puppy loves other dogs, and we are working on teaching him to be better at ignoring dogs out and about, so it was so nice to be able to hike and frolic without worrying whether another dog was going to pass us. There is a shallow stream throughout the property that my pup who usually hates water loved wading through, and a few tree logs he had fun jumping over. Everything was easy to navigate while still providing lots of physical enrichment.
This has been my favorite Sniff Spot by far, and we will absolutely be returning! Abby I.

55What a marvelous spot for our dog to run around and be wild. It was so quiet and peaceful. He enjoyed running through the forest and dipping into the creek to cool off. Zach and family have made this spot so delightful by providing a basket of dog snacks, toys, and walking sticks for the humans. They also have a super cute and comfortable sitting area near the creek.
Please note that if you have accessibility concerns, this may not be the best spot for yourself or your dog, as the short trail to the creek is narrow and can be a bit of an incline depending on the person/pet.
Although our dog is not reactive, he does have piss poor recall, and we did not feel concerned during our adventure at Zachs' place, as we didn't hear or see anybody or anything. Natalie M.
