Flawless spot. A lovely garden in a quiet area that borders the river. Pro-tip: if you drive into the alley there’s a concrete riser that you can park on that’s right on the river. Many thanks to the host, you’re doing the Lord’s work.
Host replied: Thanks Robert, but please don’t park there or anywhere in the alley. Those belong to our neighbors. There is usually plenty of parking on Drake or Central Park.
Our favorite sniff spot! Scampi loves sniffing (and barking at) the ducks. Thanks again!
Nice fenced in large spot by the river for our dog to run and play. There is a dog across the alley, and he barked when we got there but then calmed down and was not an issue for us. We would definitely go back again, and appreciate the toys and water dish left out!
This is a wonderful Spot!!! What she writes is all accurate, which is great for us anxious owners and reactive pups. Apollo is a big guy and loved chasing the birds. The yard is spacious and well kept. Wonderful hidden gem!
We had such a nice time! Parking was easy and we had no trouble getting in. It was beautiful and so peaceful! Ducks were actually coming into the yard from the river (although Archie sure did his best to chase them off ..sorry ducks!) Plenty of room to run around and lots of good sniffs. We’ll definitely be back!
This place is great! Plenty of space for our pups to run around and a box of toys they loved playing with. Just a heads up to other reactive dog parents that when we arrived there were dogs out in a yard behind the Sniffspot, so if you have a reactive pup, it might be better to enter through the front gate. We had a great time and would definitely recommend this spot!
We had a lovely visit! The yard is well maintained with toys available and I appreciated the water dish!
Super cute yard! There are nice chairs to sit in and it’s a quiet neighborhood.
Beautiful setting, very clean, and great set-up for a field trip w the pup.
Plenty of space to run!
