This spot is incredible!! Plenty of sun/shade spots, so beautiful and peaceful! Can't wait to come back!!
Awesome place for dogs they have everything a dog would want
We already scheduled another visit š
This was a wonderful spot and my girl had a great time. There is a lot of variety for her to explore, long grass, short grass, flowers. Woods, tree stumps and a pool. We arrived just as the hosts were putting out clean water. They came out as soon as we left to clean for the next guests. I am in a wheelchair and they were very accommodating. We would definitely go back.
Awesome spot!
Great place to run the dogs. Beautiful right now with everything in bloom.
Great little spot. Nice and quiet. Beautiful gardens and I loved the trees. My dog had fun playing parkour on the stump chair. We will definitely be back.
This Sniffspot keeps getting more beautiful each time we visit! My two pups love rustling through the Daisy patches and running through the long tufts of grass. This Sniffspot is the epitome of thoughtfulness, with the magnificent flower gardens, the landscaping of the entire Sniffspot area and the generous and very kind efforts of Lorraine and all her family to offer this place for a Sniffspot! They clean the water bowl and prepare the really neat doggie pool and there is off street parking!! There's no way to describe the serenity and beauty of this Sniffspot!! If you haven't yet booked this 'Room for Zoomies' Sniffspot, you will be amazed beyond words... This is our #1 spot. Both my pups AND I always go home feeling refreshed, calm, and peacefulā¤
So much room for my puppy to run! She loved it!
Really cool property. Lots of room for your dog to explore and run around. Our puppy loved the kiddie pool. It's a very peaceful spot for humans too.
This Sniffspot was awesome! Huge area for my dog to run around in and lots of different things to see/small. He loved jumping through the tall grass and going under the big tree! Very clean!
Very comfortable spot for both dog and owner. Lots of fun in Aspen Grove and ball toss. Karen
We love this spot!
So much room for my dog to run and so many things to sniff. Great spot
Great spot! Lots to explore with a very tall fence! If you have a nosey pooch there are some gardens inside that you might want to keep an eye out for fence gaps but the fence keeping us in seemed very solid!
Excellent! Best sniff spot in Bellingham. We had a wonderful time.
In particular my dog enjoyed running and exploring. The trees were gorgeous; my favorite was the copse of Aspen trees. There was a nice fresh bowl of water. But then a Robin decided that it was the perfect bird bath, which was fun to watch but not conducive for using it for a water bowl. And there was an assertive hummingbird who wanted me to know in no uncertain terms that it was not my territory. That was fun too, since I have a hummingbird feeder and know their personalities.
Two suggestions if you're visiting.
If it's rainy wait to put your stuff down - there is a nice dry area under the big fir tree with a chair and a place to put your things.
If you would like to sit and relax while your dog runs around, it's going to be hard to conscientiously keep an eye on a dog that is a troublemaker. It's easy for the dog to hide behind trees and the fences around garden areas. My dog likes to hide his poop, and I needed to follow closely behind until he did his business. If you're a more sedate or disabled person with a troublemaker, plan on getting more exercise at this sniff spot. On the other hand, if, like me, you need more exercise, that works out great. Lots of encouragement to get out of your duff and move.
Beautiful area! Lots of room for pups to run!! Loved our time here!
Such a good spot! Room to run, sniff, and explore for the pups!
This Sniffspot is incredibly beautiful. The beautifully fenced flower gardens inside the totally fenced SniffSpot area is paradise for dogs, and owners.
Just magnificent!
The landscaping of the SniffSopt acreage is very intentionally thought out allowing dogs to play in tufts of high grass, run like the wind across some mowed area, explore areas behind and around islands of bushes, the magnificent cedar trees and the wonderful Grove of Alder trees. There are so many diverse ecosystem areas for dogs and people alike to experience while you are here! Car parking is very safe, and the privacy of your experience, your visit, is such a grateful gift that Lorraine's family shares with you. Need to relax? Want your dog(s) to be dogs and play like dogs? This is the spot! This is the Sniffspot for you!
Thank you to Lorraine and familyš¾ā¤š¾
Kerry, Sophie & Fergus
Excellent spot for my nervous dog Bobby! The tall grass and trees helped him feel extra comfortable (big mowed fields aren't his favorite since there's nowhere to hide). He had a nice time sniffing the plants and patrolling the perimeter. We will be back often! Lorraine was a great host and sent detailed information and directions ahead of time. The spot was serene and had plenty of seating options. Thank you!
This was the first sniffspot I ever visited, and today I went back again and it did not disappoint. My doggie and I had so much fun running around in the trees, grass, by the stumps, and playing with a rope toy that they had. I would 100% recommend this to everyone. However, if your doggo doesnāt have the best recall and likes to get muddy, I would watch for the sides of the yard where there is lots and lots of mud!
River had a blast! This is such a wonderful space with lots of variety. We will definitely be back :)
Our pup definitely got the zoomies at this spot! Shady and sunny areas, and plenty of space to run around. There was also frolf set up at the spot. We didnāt see any other dogs or meet the host (I requested not to, as our pup is nervous around strangers). Toward the end of our visit a neighborās dog across the street did start barking, so just a heads up if your dog is reactive to barking dogs. We will definitely be back!
Chose here for our first Sniffspot for our puppy! He really enjoyed it! Itās the perfect size where itās not too big to worry about having to run after him, but also a good enough size for him to run around and enjoy himself. The grass was cut nicely around the edges and the longer grass wasnāt too long/wasnāt an issue. He actually really enjoyed those areas. The spot had lots of things to use, a hose, water bowl, scooper, and even a sample of freeze dried salmon which is our puppies favorite treat! Really enjoyed it here and will definitely be back!
Our dogs had a blast! It's a great space with lots of fun things for the dogs to explore. Thank you!
Lorraine is super communicative! I havenāt been to the spot in a while, when I booked, she let me know of the new parking spot. Iāve also had other communication with her in the past. A very sweet human she is š
Love this beautiful space close to town and still so sheltered, natural and peaceful. Fully fenced with good features for my curious girl like trees, tall grassy flowery spots, stumps, lots of space (she does indeed do zoomies here!) Fantastic to have the kiddie pool for splashing and cooling off. Lorraine is a gracious host and made sure I knew where everything was, and the space is thoughtfully designed and maintained. We'll definitely be back :)
Yard was well fenced in and nicely maintained. Our dogs had a great time!
My dogs love water so the mini pool made them extra happy
Hi Lorraine,
We had a great time at your lovely yard today with Lola. Everything went smooth, even though I had the wrong start time. I suggest double checking start times before you leave your home and also apologize to others for getting it wrong. Thanks for sharing your wonderful space!
Nice well maintained space.
This is an awesome space! My dog loved running through the trees and playing fetch. The space is clearly marked with SniffSpot signs which made it easy to find. Very open and clean. We'll definitely be back!
Such a nice space for sniffing and zoomies! It was a really nice quiet break in the woods for me and my reactive dog. Really grateful.
Just as advertised! Wonderful spot- especially for puppy zoomies!
Super peaceful spot - clean and perfect for what we were looking for.
Beautiful property with plenty of room to run and a secure fence! I couldnāt ask for more.
Our first ever sniffspot - we picked the perfect one! Really secure fencing, quiet neighborhood, and lots of foliage/stumps/trees for sniffing and exploring.
Great visit! Plenty of running room, and the Aspen Grove is beautiful. Chairs, dog toys, and poop bags available. Was pretty wet when my pup and I were there. Will definitely go again in dryer weather. Recommended!
We just started to use Sniffspots again now that we have a new foster dog. This is our favorite Sniffspot to let the dogs run and play. There is truly plenty of room for zoomies! Thank you for opening up your home. It has helped Hazel come out of her shell.
Access to toys, fresh water, poop bags, and so much space!!
We love going to this Sniffspot - always a great time for everyone!
A place of peace and serenity admist the atrocities of our world... thank you Lorraine and family for providing this place of peace for my pups and me~
Lots of open room to run.
Our dog had a great time running around and exploring Lorraineās property! There was tons of space to play chuck-it. We would definitely go again.
Always a great visit :)
Great place for dogs to run and play. Well fenced area. Thereās a water bowl and waste bags available if needed.
Wonderful sniff spot!
What a lovely space! The dogs loved all the different parts of the yard, the stand of trees, the tree trunks for climbing and the wide open space for racing around. And thanks to the owners for being extra helpful.
Great fully fenced space. Room to play, sniff and practice recall games with very few distractions. A relaxing space for humans, too!
I have yard envy! Excellent instructions on how to find the place, AND toys to boot!
Clean area, secure fencing, great play date!
Just as advertised. This Sniffspot is great! Fully fenced, clean water, toys, lots of space to roam, & chairs for us to relax in. We briefly met Lorraine & her son & they were very welcoming. Definitely recommend.
This is a great spot! My dogs had a great time zooming around the yard and through the aspen grove.
Always lovely here! The hummingbirds were chasing each other about and it was fun to watch. The dogs had a great time sniffing and zooming! Thank you for a lovely time!
Great experience!
Secure fencing, great amenities, lots of room to run and very gracious hosts! Parking and driveway are well marked. Clean water available for dogs and chairs for humans. Very clean.
Great spot with thoughtful details like a toy box and SniffSpot stickers. My girls enjoyed running and sniffing and one especially liked climbing on the log piles.
Easy to find! Great set up for plenty of sniffs and zoomies. I plan to come back with my other dog soon!
Such a great spot for exercise and training! Having a large fenced in space to practice our recall and chase balls safely was amazing!
Very well maintained and SO quiet, so a very healthy environment for my very reactive dog!
Great spot for our pup to run and play fetch!
A beautiful day to play in a beautiful place!
Well kept, plenty of space to run
Clean and plenty of room for my very silly dog to run.
Room for Zoomies is a remarkable Sniffspot! No matter how much rain there is, there is not one soggy muddy area! Meticulously cared for, always a cleaned out fresh bowl of water, a top notch place!
Easy peasy!
Amazing space! Telle had so much fun playing fetch and sniffing around the yard. Definitely a new favorite spot!
What a great spot! Our dogs had so much fun. We will be back!
Nice and close location to town. Easy to follow instructions. Safe fencing. Enough room for the pup to run, explore, work on recall and training. There was a dog and people near by but didnāt bother us.
What a beautiful and serene place. Magnus loved all of the sniffs and chasing birds.
Green, treed, relaxing experience. An abundance of interesting sounds and smells kept my solo dog happily going non-stop. So nice to have a hose with extra fine spray available for rinsing if needed when done. Great time!
We really enjoyed our first trip to Lorraineās sniff spot! The perfect place for my two small dogs to explore. It was clean and easily accessible. Canāt wait to come back again! Thank you!!
Lots of room for pups to run, tall, sturdy fencing, quiet and a great place to work on training!
We love your Sniffspot! Thank you so much for letting Sammy come and get the zoomies out on Christmas Eve. It was a lifesaver!
Clean, secure and so much fun!
Directions were helpful and clear. Space is clean and lots of room for activities!! Great entertainment for adults- canāt wait to come on a sunny day!
Great spot to let the dog explore! Secure fence all around and didnāt see any other dogs during our visit.
Love this spot so much! Our girls love having so much room to zoom!
Great fully fenced spot. Will be back with furry friends! Thank you!
We loved our time here! Fully fenced, well maintained, and so many sniffs! Despite the recent rains it wasn't terribly muddy which was a bonus :) Hosts are also so nice!
Gertie loves this place
100% positive experience. The hosts are very hospitable and considerate, and the play area is beautiful and has everything you could ask for. Our pupper had an amazing time and is worn out and snoring right now. The play area truly is fully fenced with no holes, and Ginny loved being able to climb up on the tree stump platform. There is so much room to run and fetch too.
Fully fenced in and secured, lots of space and things to explore!
Amazingly clean, very secure and lots of fun. Hosts have chairs, poop scoop and water bowl available. Lots of room to run and sniff.
Very lovely space close to Fairhaven. Such a treasure to have space like this available as a Sniffspot.
Wonderful spot, my dog really loved the log pile and climbed and stood on it for a good chunk of time. Tons of space for him to run around. He got a bit cold halfway through his session, but the parking is right next to the space, so we were able to warm up for a bit in the car before going back out there and romping around again. Thanks!
We love this spot so much⦠dogs now recognize where weāre going and start whining when weāre close. Thank you!
Absolutely fantastic experience. We have two young Mexican beach dog rescues, both of them are still quite skittish and can bolt at the drop of a hat. Thry are both runners, and they need space and stimulation, always a challenge when we travel. Your space was so perfect for long stretches of running and sprinting! Using our ball thrower, we couldnāt even get it to the far end of the lot, but we could keep eye contact with them the entire time. Honestly, itās very clear that you have a high respect for dogs and people, and wish to provide a great experience, and trust that we felt that and really, really appreciate it!!
Although it was raining and I didnāt get a chance to meet the host, Lorraine, her location is ideal (beautiful, well-tended) setting for letting a dog run and sniff off itās energy to then work on training. Iām grateful for my dog trainer who recommended Sniffspot.
Lovely to stand under the huge cedars trees staying dry vs being out in the rain. Dogs had a great time. Yes they did zoom!
We visited from 4-5:00 pm the day before Thanksgiving. Little soft white lights were strung through at the top of the completely fenced 'play paradise' for my two pups. It was a beautiful time to come and be a part of the beautiful sunset dusk rolling in.
I highly recommend this SniffSpot for all seasons. Not soggy, even after all the recent rains. Kept immaculately clean and so thoughtful with all the different type of chairs to relax in.
It is my favorite SniffSpot and so, especially on this Thanksgiving Day, my two rescue pups and I are forever thankful to Lorraine and her family's heartfelt generousity~
Great place! Tons to sniff and very secure fencing. My dog loved it
Great spot for play for our German Shepherd. Weāve had a bunch of rain lately, but the property was still in great shape. It was NOT a mud hole like many parks would be in the area. Also - a fun variety of grasses, trees, obstacles, toys to play with.
The directions were good and property easy to find. We will be back!
This is our favorite spot in the area to take our pup who loves to run. Cute little alder forest in the back. Super clean and pleasant.
Great spot. Lots of room to run!
What a great space! Dodger had a great time running and playing amongst the aspens and romping in the tall grass! Thank you for sharing your lovely space!
Great, secure space!
Lovely. Doggos are exhausted.
Wonderful. Lots of room to run.
Space was as advertised! The fence was solid, and there were lots of different areas to explore. Our younger puppy especially loved running around. Unfortunately, we left a bit early because it started raining pretty hard.
Wonderful spot!
Thorough and thoughtful host, yard is beautiful and comfortable. At a dead end, good run for two smaller dogs (especially around the small alder stand!). Nice big cedar stand to stay dry underneath. Thank you!
Beautifully maintained grassy areas, clusters of Cedar trees, fenced flower beds, a cluster of Alder trees... all to explore, sniff, journey from one great sniffspot to another! There are a variety of chairs, some with handrests that can be placed around wherever you desire... a patch of sun, under the shade of branches.
Water bowl is spotless, a doggy pool is available, if the weather cooperates, toys, ball, throwy twirls things are for use kept safe and dry in the inside mailbox with the flag up! The surrounding area is just gorgeous,too, no matter what time of day you are able to schedule. Watching the sun rise, or the serenity of the sunset, you must visit here and let yourself enjoy watching the absolute peace and freedom that your dog(s) experience!! This is a 10 out of 10!!
Our second visit to this SniffSpot was even more lovely as it was a beautiful fall day and Joe enjoyed running free with the wind in the beautiful setting. Thank you!
Nice large yard with lots to explore and long stretches to run. Signs and directions were helpful. Many thoughtful details by host.
This SniffSpot is amazing. It was recommended by our trainer and exceeded our expectations. Well maintained, good parking, beautiful even on a rainy day. Thank you!
Perfect size for the dogs to have a really good run around and plenty to explore while remaining in sight and hearing distance. Pups had a blast, even in the rain. Weāll be back!
Our Aussie girls had a wonderful time! Perfect size space for them to get their zoomies out and sniff all the sniffs! Will definitely be back.
Lots of space to run! I loved the patches of birch and cedars. It was also fun to throw some discs. Weāll be back for sure!
My dog loves this spot! After work itās so nice to bring her here to run around and play :)
Beautiful space, lots of room to run and play, and hosts are very friendly! We will definitely return.
It was great! It was raining but there were plenty of spots for us to hide! Canāt wait to come on a sunny day!
Really wonderful spot for my 6-month-old puppy and my friend's dog who we wanted him to meet on neutral territory. So much room for them to run around and get to know each other. The property was safe, clean and beautiful!
Beautiful property and plenty of room for the zoomies for sure!!
Always a fun time to be had here. Such a pretty spot! My guys love it here, always safe and secure as well!
Lots of room for ball chasing. Great places to get new sniffs in. The dogs had a blast! I also loved all the flowers and bumble bees.
We love this spot! So peaceful and fun for my boys.
Really a great spot for pups and their humans to enjoy.
This was a fantastic place for two small dogs to play. Lots of space to run, shady spots, and the fresh water and kiddy pool were really nice touches. The spot is beautiful, private and clean. I was greeted warmly when I arrived and then we were left to enjoy the space. I highly recommend it!
My only concern was one spot where there is a gate leading out of the space. Not the main gate, but closer to the road you drive up. My dog is very small (13 lb Chiweenie) and I was concerned that he might be able to get out under the gate there. I wasn't hugely concerned as I think he would need to work to escape, and I was watching him the whole time. I would just watch for that spot and keep an eye on little pups. It did not in any way take away from our experience. The rest of the fencing seems quite secure.
Quiet and fully fenced. Loved the little trails to walk on while our pup ran around and found sticks to show us. Nice lost and found/toy library box to borrow if you forgot any.
This was a super fun sniff spot! Our puppy did so much zooming and enjoyed getting to explore the yard, and we will definitely be back!
My dog loved this spot! The trees and tall grass were especially lovely. I also appreciated the pool to fill and the water bowl.
Love this spot!
Great Sniffspot for my GSP; mixed environment thatās interesting to her and convenient location.
The "Room for Zoomies" SniffSpot has become a staple of our dog-focused activities. When friends visited, we took their dogs there too and they had a great time as well! Highly recommended if you want a peaceful and fully enclosed exercise environment for your pup(s.) The diversity of terrain (aspen grove, long-grass field, lawn, etc.) makes for stimulating and interesting canine exploration. One of our dogs uses the large tree stumps located in one area of the field as an organic agility obstacle :)
Great spot for letting a new puppy off leash safely. Plenty of things to explore, climb on, and sounds (there is a dog next door who came out and barked at us). Billie enjoyed her first Sniffspot experience and we used the opportunity to practice her recall.
Another beautiful morning at Lorraine's Room for Zoomies SniffSpot!
Magnificent flowers awaited me inside the entrance gate! My two dogs actually squealed when they got out of the car... ready to ZOOM!! And boy did they!!
My Standard Poodle zoomed, with complete abandon leaping through the long grass parts, then headed to the Cedar Grove for a myriad of new sniffs, then, doing that 'Poodle' thing of seemingly dancing on air as he traversed the various mowed paths and bounced through the areas of high grass over to the Aspen Tree grove. He noodled in and around and through the Aspens... sooo many different experiences, smells, visual stimulations, shade and sun... and gorgeous flowers in their own fenced garden areas (like little flower islands) creating unique areas of different explorations!
For the hour we are in the SniffSpot, it is pure bliss watching them run free as they seek and find their own happiness!!
Lorraine's Room for Zoomies is a gem!!
Beautiful peaceful spot! Our reactive dog doesnāt have a lot of options for exploring and goofing around off-leash, and she had a great time!
A great space to explore and play. We really appreciated the toys and water bowl. Wonderful to have a place to run free near town. Thank you!
Would definitely recommend! Such a great yard/space for the pups to romp around!
Extraordinary place for a dog to run and enjoy!
What a great spot, and the host, Lorraine is so nice! It is the perfect size yard for practicing recall....not too big and not too small! The yard is also well fenced in. There is only one spot that a small dog could wiggle its way free (under one of the gates).
This spot is so beautiful it's very well looked after, safe, and clean. My little guys absolutely love it here, and we do too!
This is just a lovely spot! we were on a long drive and this was a perfect stop to stretch our legs and let our dog run. Our dog is reactive towards other dogs and we didnt see or hear any other dogs. Thank you!
Wonderful place - so relaxing for humans, so much fun for canines! Our new dog isnāt trained enough yet to be off leash in an open area, so playing with her and letting her sniff and run like crazy here was a wonderful experience.
Such a well maintained and beautiful area! my puppy LOVES running around the zoomie tracks!
lorraine was so sweet and welcoming! she offered us treats, water for our dog, and even some fresh cut flowers. so warm and hospitable. we loved the sniff spot, it was fenced all the way around and we felt secure that our dog would not escape, which was a concern as he has high prey drive. thanks Lorraine!
my dogs favorite spot to run!
My friend and I wanted our dogs to meet last Sunday and I immediately thought of this SniffSpot. I was disappointed the only time available was 6:30 p.m. To my surprise the early evening was delightful, relaxing and mesmerizing. We almost overstayed our reservation! Thanks again for a fun dog time and a restful visit for the peeps. Jane, Wonder and friends.
Wow! Lorraine has thought of everything! Water bowl, poop bags & can, sanitizer, toys & even treats! The space is large and beautifully cared for. We had a great time & will be returning! Thank you so much!!
Such a great spot! Plenty of room to run and chase the ball. Thereās also plenty of shade for a sunny day. Thank you!!
beautiful space for peds and people!
This was our third time to this spot - it is definitely a favorite! even more so today with the PNW heat wave; having lots of shade and the kiddie pool made for some very happy dogs!
Love this spot! Larraine is the best and the dogs have such a blast. Itās completely safe and dog friendly and I leave the spot with tired dogs!
Room for Zoomies at Lorraine's is the most peaceful place to hang out with your dogs! I have 2 dogs and everytime we visit it's a respite from the world's 'noise', heartache and confusion. I am so thankful to Lorraine and her son who painstakingly care for the land and provide this magnificent experience for both 4 legged and two legged beings~ A pure treasure! We will be back!!
Beautiful spot with lots of sniffs for a pup, and some nice places to sit in the shade when it is hot out :)
The host was thoughtful, friendly, and welcoming. There was sanitizers set up, multiple seating areas, a large water bowl, hose, kiddie pool etc! We even got to leave with some sample treats! The dogs enjoyed the space which included both wooded areas and grassy spaces. We will definitely revisit.
great spot! my dog loved it
This lovely, safe yard with gardens and small woods is peaceful and beautiful.
Another great visit - this time with two dogs - great space for them to run and play and fun to have the little pool on the hot day!
love this place, my dog loves this place! theyve done a great job leaving some of the grass long for the dogs and mowing other spots for walking. thankful for this little oasis :)
Great place for two dogs to chase and play. Very fun. Lots of water for the dog bowl. Thanks so much!
The puppies had so much fun! Can't wait to go back!
Such a wonderful spot! My dogs loved zooming around the field and exploring the wooded grove and other exciting new spots. It was secure and easy to access, and we appreciated the toys, water, and extra poop bags. We will definitely be back!
Great spot to let the dogs run free and have fun! Beautiful property.
Lorraine's Sniff Spot is exactly how it is described. It is a great place for a medium to large dog to run free, sniff and smell things in a yard that is fully fenced yet has tall grass which my dog loves, clumps of trees, shade, sun and well maintained grass. Follow her directions exactly to her home and you will arrive there just fine. A very short drive away is the Chuckanut Community Forest for a great leashed pre or post walk.
We had a really good time here. There are lots of different terrain types for dogs to enjoy. Toys, water, and dog bags provided. There are beautiful flowers and gardens in bloom right now for the humans to enjoy. The gardens are fenced off though, so your dog cannot get to them! We saw some rabbits next door, and heard people and children out and about. Not an issue for my pups, but could be for the reactive ones. We had such a lovely time!
Thankfully the weather cleared up for us this morning! This has become one of our favorite sniffspots!
Our dog ran around so much! We enjoyed the flowers and hummingbirds. We did see a coyote in the neighboring yard and our dog had as hard time with that.
such a gorgeous spot for the dogs to play! Room for zoomies is right⦠and boy did they take advantage of it! it was a hot day yesterday and we were all grateful for the plentiful shade in this gorgeous spot. definitely reccomend⦠iāll definitely be going back!
2nd visit to this spot - what a lovely afternoon! Enjoyed the logs/stumps in the field, the wildflowers, admiring the garden, playing disc golf (sorry to the host - one disc ended up in garden on accident!) and watching our pups zoom around non stop for the hour. Will be back! Thank you! Very secure fencing, something for every pup!
Great visit! Clean and safe with beautiful trees and flowers. My dogs and small kids loved running around in the sunshine this morning.
my dogs love the versatility of this place! it is truly a place for zoomies, my dogs just love to run around the whole time! they dont even need any toys because this place is so intriguing to them. such a beautiful spot, I even enjoy going there myself. i love looking at the gardens and humming birds are always buzzing around. this place is truly magical.
Lovely, quiet, and safe. We had a wonderful time.
My dogs hd a great time exploring and running through the grass and exploring the space. we will definitely be back.
Great visit with 3 pups! This is a beautiful outdoor space that is very comfortable and safe for humans and pups. We'll be back again.
Great spot! Plenty of different and interesting places in this large space for our dog to explore. Cashew had a great time.
Iāve used this spot quite a few times and it is definitely my favorite to bring my pup! The area offers lots of different spaces for Juniper to do, from sniffing, trudging through the long grass, chasing balls, and running through the aspen grove. The area is beautiful and very well maintained, and every time Iāve talked to Lorraine she has been very nice.
Well maintained, super private area. We had a blast and hope to return!
Beautiful open yard with many fun natural features for dogs to navigate and explore. Great spot for any dog (and human)!
Beautiful space in a wonderful quiet setting with lovely open fields of soft grass to play and zoom (and wrestle) in, perfext for running joyfully through the trees and sniff-exploring the woodland border, our playdate was a blast! We will visit again, for sure!
The space was everything it said it was. My dog tested several places to get out but it was not possible. It was a great time for Bonita and me, we will be back.
Enchanting place for all to totally relax!! Room for Zoomies is a tranquil safe place for dogs to be dogs, and for people to enjoy watching their dog(s) play, explore, relax, investigate and then just chill out!!
Our pup had a great time running and exploring. She loved running through the aspen grove. Very nice property and we enjoyed it also.
I do nose work and tracking with my dog. This place was absolutely amazing. I would go again and highly recommend it. Itās very easy to find if you read the directions from the host and there are clear signs for parking. Everything is fenced in and perfect for training dogs. My favorite sniff spot
Thank you for such a wonderful introduction to Sniffspot. Every aspect of the experience was positive and we look forward to visiting again soon.
This was such an awesome place for our five doggies to play together! Plenty of room and nice amenities like water, trashcan and bags, even a baby pool! We will definitely be back
This is a nice setup for dogs who don't have a large yard to run in. We thought we would try it for something different than our own large fenced yard! The spot is tidy, toys, fenced. Because my dogs do have a high prey drive, they will do whatever they can do to get to wild animals. At this location, we saw deer on the way in, they found a little rodent in her yard (which got away), and there were some frolicking squirrels just outside the fence. So, my fence jumper became a bit fixated on these things and kept going to the gates, where there is an opening that is relatively low at the top of the gates. We ended up leaving early because I was concerned my dog was going to jump through one of the gates. For most dogs, this isn't going to be an issue but if you have an escape artist who is adept at jumping fences, the gates may be an issue. They could easily be screened off with some hardware cloth. I was wishing that I had asked for Lorraine's dogs to join us, which probably would have kept mine more focused on playing in the fenced space! I would definitely recommend this large fenced yard for dogs who aren't escape artists. It was a pleasant spot.
this spot is wonderfull! we love taking our rdog here to let her run around, sniff and get lots of energy out. Highly reccomend!
Our dog had SO much fun running around this yard! She had plenty of things to sniff and room to sprint. We would definitely return here again.
Lovely, water provided, clean !
super fun! lots of room to run and play and we got some free treats after! We will be back lots! Thanks :)
The host was so great- she messaged me before my arrival to make sure I knew how to get there. She also left some treats for pup. The yard is beautiful and there is lots of room for pups to sniff and run! They were kind enough to provide water and poop bags as well. 10/10
Oh man! Our dog was SO happy to run around freely and roll in the grass at this sniff spot! He gets anxious in new places, but this was the perfect size for him to explore and for us to feel safe letting him become familiar with the environment. Clear directions and signage and communication from the host. We will be back!
my two dogs are brothers and rarely get to be out in the same space together. This was the perfect situation for them. Lots of room to run and nothing to trigger them. i am beyond grateful.
nice & secure yard in a quiet neighborhood. the house accross the street has their dog off leash/wandering quite a bit so be aware of that in case you have a reactive dog. this yard is right off the C.Moore loop (connects down to the interurban).
What a wonderful place. I have been wishing for a safe place for my dog to run like crazy. We spent an hour exploring, and throwing balls and frisbees. Canāt wait to bring her back
Lorraine is a wonderful host and the spot was awesome - lots of room and fully fenced!
Super fun day! Beautiful property! The host keeps everything sanitized and gave us treats for the road! Would book this spot again! :)
Such a fun spot for my littles to explore, sniff, and run. Also lovely for the humans too. Very safe as well.
This is a beautiful location with lots of room to run and play! The dogs had such a great time that I couldnāt get any still photos!
always a nice visit here !
We enjoy going because it it fully fenced and room to play ball.
This visit she didn't want to leave because she had so much fun.
Great spot with plenty of variety.
Nice sized and securely fenced property in a quiet neighborhood in Fairhaven. we really like this Sniffspot!
We had so much fun, were here for an hour and a half and it went by so fast! Everyone had a ball. Very safe fencing, such a lovely spot for everyone!
So wonderful! the dogs had so much fun. We will be back!
Poppy and Finn love this spot. They were crazy excited a mile before we even got there. Wonderfully maintained and so worth the price. Plenty of room to run.
lovely location, great space. cant wait to go back !
Visiting this wonderful SniffSpot has become part of our regular routine. Our dogs always enjoy the ability to run off-leash. This is a safe and secure setting for them to do this. Fresh clean water is provided as well as spare balls for playing fetch. We'll keep coming back! :)
My dogs loved this spot! Luckily they provide excelent directions in finding their property because otherwise I would have followed my GPS and gotten lost! The property is clearly marked with a Sniffspot sign, as was the parking area. Itās located in a quiet neighborhood without much traffic. It was a good size for my two dogs and securely fenced. Weāll be making more trips here as it is conveniently located in Bellingham
Beautiful, large piece of land! Trees were very pretty and my dog had a great time running all around! Some trunks set up for mini agility training. Lorraine provided easy instructions and a free sample of treats at the gate! Thank you!
This is a great spot for dogs to sniff! Lots of grasses, some trees and open area to roam and get out zoomies or play fetch. There were so many new smells for my dog he was occupied sniffing for quite some time which is great for getting out some mental energy. There was a bowl of water, sanitizing sprays, balls, chairs, poop bags, etc. The gate was clearly labeled and easy to find and the house had Sniffspot signs so you know you're in the right spot! The space was clean too. I met the host towards the end of my visit so she'll see me and my dog as a familiar face in the future!
Our dogs loved this SniffSpot! They loved running around the cluster of trees in a ācircuitā over and over! It was easy to find, clean and well maintained. We will definitely be coming again!
What a great spot for the dogs. They had such a great time. The space is perfect with plenty of room and lots of different features. Poppy and Finn begged me to let them stay. It's like Disneyland for dogs.
I love this Sniffspot for my two rescue dogs! There is plenty of room for decompression off leash walks, training, and for dogs to explore diverse terrain. My dogs got to explore a tree maze, a small pond, a tree covered area, open fields, and elevated areas. I have high energy dogs and they are always exhausted after sniffing and exploring this beautiful Sniffspot. It is safe, clean, and Lorraine is a welcoming and awesome host. It is also good for me because I can relax while watch my dogs have fun.
Well maintained, clean, lots of space, and overall a good place! Directions are very easy to follow and awesome service!
This was a beautiful and peaceful little spot. Our pups really really enjoyed themselves. 10/10 we will be coming again.Ā
We love this Sniffspot. Locket has a blast here!Ā
Always clean, secure and provides decompression for both canines and humans. We visit as often as we are able.
Our dogs always have a great time at this safe, clean SniffSpot. Definitely recommended!!
Great spot! Lots of room to run and safely fenced. Thanks for sharing!!
This will become a habit!Ā
Always a great time and space for my two doggos!
Tuukka and I go every Sunday on our way to pick up groceriesĀ
So much funĀ
Great spot just as advertised! Lorraine was quick and easy to communicate with.Ā
A wonderfully safe, serene spot in the woods to play with my puppy. We loved it!
This was an awesome experience for Locket. Lorraine, Kenneth and their pups were friendly and the space was spacious and well-cared for. The dogs romped, the humans chatted together and the whole experience was stellar.
The spot was a little hard to find, but there was lots of space for my guy to run ariund
Great area! Sturdy fence! We had a blast. Will be coming back!
Lots of space to run. Ā So good for my boy. Ā No triggers
Fantastic!!
This was a nice big fenced in area that is well kept. There were balls provided and some chairs for sitting. The parking was easy to find and my dog had a blast.
Great place for my little guys to snoop and run, as well as play fetch. They just love it here, and I love it because it is safe, and secure. And their are balls to play with too!
I love taking my girl to this sniff spot. She enjoys going on and smelling all the news and running and I enjoy watching her because it is completely fenced and I feel safe for her.
Bringing our dogs to this great SniffSpot is pretty much a weekly event for us. There are balls available for our dogs to play with, fresh water, seating for the human guests, and we have it on good canine authority, obviously interesting things to sniff ! This is a great resource for canine enrichment!
The place was precisely as described and very clean. The directions were uncomplicated and everything was set up clearly. The setting was lovely as was our brief meeting with the host at the end of our visit. We look forward to returning.
Everything was exactly as advertised. The extra directions were very helpful.
Price is a bit steep and no half hour options for the rainy days, but the yard is pristine and groomed well
All around great experience! Securely fenced play area with lots of cool books and crannies for my dog to explore. Balls and bags were provided, and a nice seating area to relax while my dog ran around. Even my kids loved the aspen grove!
This was my first time visiting, Tuukka and I had a wonderful time. Ā Easy to find and wonderful host.Ā
We brought three pups to enjoy this spot and they all had a great time. Plenty of room for fetch, tons of room for zoomies. Lots to sniff and explore. Host was very helpful. We look forward to coming back.Ā
Always a blast for Mya!
Great to know there are dog hosts willing to play with your pups if you want.
My dogs really loved sniffing around and exploring today. A slight breeze so they had extra scents. Great mental stimulation. They were so tired later. Thank you!
Great spot! Directions were super clear, parking was easy, and there was tons of space for our dog to run and play. Weāll be back!Ā
We were having such a great time so we extended our visit today. Peaceful, relaxing and a great decompression for all of us, human included.
Another fun visit to our favorite SniffSpot! It is always well maintained, with fresh water available for the dogs and at least a couple of seating areas for the humans :)
We have been here before it's our go to spot for fun. My little guys absolutely love it here. It's a nice safe spot for fun!
Excellent experience for us today, happy to report will use again and will recommend to others. Our pups loved the area and had a great time sniffing and just being dogs.
We had another fun visit at this very safe, and enjoyable SniffSpot! Our dogs love exploring the Aspen grove and being able to run off-leash. We are regulars and are very grateful to our kind hosts for making their lovely property available for canine enjoyment. We can't wait to bring our dogs here when it snows! Highly recommended!
Our beautiful Mya who suffers from being anxious and reactive, had thee BEST time. And watching her be able to run and run, made this beautiful and clean spot a weekly must. We are absolutely thrilled to find this oasis :).
We love Lorraineās spot. Always a party for Mr. Kintla!Ā
Great!
This was a lovely spot with trees, paths, open grass, all in a manageable one acre. My friend, our dogs, and I had a wonderful time. Lorraine thoughtfully has chairs for us to sit in and toys for the dogs to play with. Definitely a place to return to.
Beautiful spot. Peaceful and interesting. Excited to go back!
Our dogs had a great time. Nice area with lots of space. Signage was great and Lorraine and her family were super friendly
Our second visit - all great.
Our dogs have been enjoying this sniff spot for awhile now but never get tired of the smells and sounds. So wonderful for them to be able to romp and be comfortable and secure. Such a fabulous location and a kid host.
What a great time I had w my pup! After some serious sniff time, my girl suddenly burst out running. She was so happy. The property is clean & well maintained - plenty to explore, and space to run. Just what we needed.
We always have a good time at this sniff spot. Lots to smell! Thank you to the host Lorraine for being flexible and understanding that our dogs are just learning.
Lorraine gets an excellent review!!!!!
This is a fantastic spot for our 3 Cairns. They all live to run, and run and snoop, it's the perfect amount of space for them. Oh and Lorraine put up Christmas lights on the fence, I thought that was very nice!
Great spot to take the dogs to roms around. There was plenty of room for them to run and play and lots of spots to sniff. All 3 of my dogs had a great time and were so sleepy when we got home! We met the host and she was so nice as well! Can't wait to return!
Another wonderful visit! This time, with a friend and her dog, too. Such a beautiful spot ā for humans and our furkids!
I love this spot, and my little dogs always have a blast here, Lorain is so very friendly as well. We have been here 3 times and we always feel very safe here, it so lovely to have a place like this.
Fantastic spot for us to bring our newly adopted dog, Mazey, to safely run and explore without the stressors of walking in our neighborhood. Ā Mazey is highly reactive to other dogs, especially on a leash, so having this space is a relief for our family to enjoy Mazey off leash where she can run, sniff, and play...she is SO happy here ;)
Lorraine was very friendly and accommodating. This is the perfect fenced in area for zoomies! Nala loved it and we'll definitely be back.
Thanks Lorraine for sharing such a beautiful spot for dogs to run! My dog Zoe had so much fun running free, something she has not been able to do for a while. We will definitely return very soon.
It's always a pleasure visiting Lorraine's SniffSpot because of the variety of interesting terrain for our dogs to explore and the fact that they can be off leash in a safe, secure environment. Our dogs, Oscar and Pixie, give it 8 paws up! :)
My dog loved all the different smells that the terrain had to offer! My favorite was the cool trees and disc golf but my dog really liked rolling in the grass and smelling literally everything. Very nice!
Wonderful spot for running and playing fetch. My guy loves going here and getting his zoomies out as well as some good old hunting in the tall grass. I enjoy walking the perimeter and watching my guy have a blast. Beautiful spot close to town yet quiet and away from it all.Ā
It's always a good time for our dogs when we come to Lorraine's SniffSpot! Highly recommend :)
Gemma had the best day at SniffSpot. I didn't have to worry about off leash dogs. Very secure area. We will definitely be booking again and again
Luna and I had a wonderful time. Like the fact that the parking spot is marked. Makes it very easy. I brought our iFetch today to try it out and it works great there. This is truly a wonderful spot for us. And it is quiet. Just perfect for us.
My pup loved this sniffspot! It was so nice not to worry about letting her off leash and we were happy to let her get her energy out. We will be back!
I have 3 small dogs two are puppies, and this is the second time we have been here. The puppies run like crazy, they absolutely love it here, even my senior dog has a fun time exploring. I always feel so safe at this place, it's such a plus to know my little dogs can't escape. We will continue to go back. If I could give 10 stars I would!
My dogs had such a wonderful time playing and sniffing around this wonderful Sniffspot. I like that there are different types of terrain for your dogs to explore and sniff around in! Lorraine was very kind when she checked in with us toward the end of our first visit. These are real dog people! They welcome & encourage people with reactive dogs to visit for decompression walks and safe exercise. I highly recommend visiting! My dogs & I are going again tomorrow š
This is a fantastic place to bring your dogs. Sniffspot was recommended to us by our dog trainer as a safe place to bring our pup so that we could let him off leash and enjoy just letting him be a dog. There are no bikes, other dogs or cars to worry about (things that may seem common to most, but are stressors for our young dog) and the yard is completely fenced. Ā The owners/hosts are great! They're very attentive to your dog's needs and they have thought of everything to make their yard a safe, fun place for dogs. We highly recommend it!! :)Ā
Our dogs love the secure setting with sun, shade, trees, grasses, shrubs - so much to smell, hear, and see! A great place to let your dogs relax and to work on recall. Thanks!
We always have fun at Room for Zoomies! Zoos actually did some zoomies this time :)
Lorraine was super helpful and sweet! Yard is well fenced with lots of snoot spots.
Lots of great grass to sniff, friendly host, lovely spot!
Great space!Ā
Room for Zoomies is our new favorite place!Ā
Great spot, well kept, dogs enjoyed their time!Ā
If I could give Lorraine's spot extra stars, I would! Lola loved running about in the field and through the trees, fetching balls, rolling in the grass, and meeting the charming Kuma and Ghillie. Thank you for your hospitality - we hope to be back soon!
Our 2nd visit to Room for Zoomies was just as great as the first! So happy this place exists for our family to have a safe place to play with our dog off leash.Ā
Always a blast. My pup loves to run while I walk the perimeter.Ā
Great place!
Always a fun time
Fantastic!!! Great open grass area to play fetch. Very clean and accessible. Would recommend to anyone with a dog. Great value and best kept secret in Bellingham.
My puppy Timber and I had an amazing time at this property. We played fetch in the field by the aspen trees and cooled off in the kiddie pool provided. Needless to say, I went home with a tired, happy pup. I highly recommend!!
Wonderful clean tranquil place. We set up a picnic and enjoyed the sun while the dogs enjoyed the room to run and the little kiddie pool. Host is friendly and efficient. My two little dogs had a great time. Some neighborhood dogs barked but they were far enough away that it didn't set my dogs off. Will definitely book again!
Perfect place for my dogs to run free and play!!! Ā Plenty of shady area as well as sun, tall grass to run through, kiddie pool and water bowl as well as hand sanitizer and extra poop bags. Very secure fencing and clean facility. We opted to play with owners dogs and are so glad we did. Kuma was a great wresting and running partner and Ghillie was a perfect gentleman. Owners are sweet too. Weāll be back!
Another wonderful visit to this sweet spot! Thank you!!
Always fun, beat the heat!
Fantastic outing spot for the puppers with great host communication beforehand. Easy to get to but feels so far away and private - nice for the humans too!
Room for Zoomies was a perfect place for me and my leash reactive/off leash bolter doggo to play and explore. We loved walking the mowed paths and I lol'd when he hopped and bounced through the long grass to chase a stick. Next time I will bring the ball and just lounge in the sun on the lawn area. It has a little bit of everything you'd want for QT with your dog for an hour.
We had a perfectly lovely time ā such an ideal place! I am training a new dog, working especially now with off-leash Recall. Having a stimulating environment that is dog-safe (very well-fenced) is a terrific way to work on the commands our new little guy is learning. And such a glorious spot for _me_ to meander, and enjoy the gardens and beautiful yard! Absolutely loved our time here, and will be back. Highly recommend.
We have just been consistently impressed with the host's patience with dogs and their behavior. This sniff spot continues to be a wonderful place for our dogs to try something new and get enrichment. Thank you!
My dog had a lovely time frolicking in the grass and running around. Ā Very clean and peaceful! Ā I think my dog is a bit out of shape because he has been sleeping ever since, will definitely be returning. Ā Thank you for expelling the zoomies!!
It was great as always!
Oh my goodness! So much room for activities! I have an 8 month old puppy that still needs work with following commands and recalls and is extremely distracted at a public dog park. This place was perfect for her. She loved the tall grass and the kiddie pool. The family that runs this sniff spot were so wonderful throughout our entire visit and even brought their dogs out to play. I will definitely be bringing my dog here again. It was absolutely a great experience.
Lovely, peaceful, well cared for space with plenty of room to run. Very securely fenced - and thoroughly inspected by my escape artist. Only a 10 minute drive so very convenient. It was too hot to do much running, we'll try again on a cooler day. The dogs were very disappointed to find there was no water in the pool but they did enjoy exploring every bit of the space. One managed to find something stinky to roll in, he was quite pleased with himself but needed a bath when we got home. We did not meet anyone upon arrival or departure.
Great property
Really nice space! My dog loved it and it was well taken care of. Relaxing and quiet. Will definitely go back!
Another great visit. They played hard!!
Lorraine and her husband are super kind people. We've enjoyed their wonderful SniffSpot three times now. The fully fenced area offers lots of interesting sniff spaces for dogs. Running through the longer grass (around which there is a mowed path to make for easy walking for the humans) is a favorite of our dogs. There's a nice mix of sun and shade, and several chairs just inside the entrance gate (also presumably for the human guests.) One of our dogs loves the wading pool using it both as a cooling off spot as well as a giant water dish - although there's always a full bowl of clean drinking water available too. This SniffSpot is a really great addition in terms of dog amenities in Bellingham. Highly recommended!
Small pool for the dogs was a huge plus for this visit! Really beautiful and quite spot and will definitely come again!
I brought a clients dog here to have a play session with Kuma & Ghillie as well as work on off leash recalls and this place was perfect! Sadie got along well with both dogs and it was great for her to practice her social skills. The property is fully fenced and just big enough for the dogs to move away and even get out of sight for recall practice. I know I'll definitely be using it in the future as well as referring it out to my client base. (
Great place, pups loved it. Good mix of sun and shade, both tall grass and mowed paths. Quiet and private, clean and safe.
Always a fun time for our dogs
Take your towel and have a ball! This sniff spot is a world away from all the hectic noise and frantic living! And better yet is right in Fairhaven up above Hoagās pond.Ā
My dog Sonnet loved romping through the fields and taking a tour of the nicely mown paths around the perimeter.Ā
The niceties were a kiddie pool she could cool off in, plenty of shade, to rest in, and lots of fun to explore.
An added bonus was the host family! Although we could have been left completely alone, the host and her two dogs plus family was so much fun interacting with them!
Just w ish there was a higher tating then 5 stars!
Great spot with really fun different aspects to keep dogs entertained! Very welcoming host too!Ā
My dog loved running around and sniffing everything! Lorraine provided very detailed and helpful directions here. Secure fencing and a really beautiful property. Highly recommend!
This yard is perfect in everyway and Iām grateful to have found it. Lorraine is so kind and generous. Will definitely return.Ā
This was a lovely spot to take the dogs to play! They loved running through the tall grass and among the trees. The grounds were neat and well kept up, with a secure fence around the perimeter. The host was friendly and accommodating. We will be back!
I have 3 Cairn terriers two are puppies, and they had a fabulous time, running as fast as they could, sniffing every spot. They had a great time. My older Cairn loved taking her time snooping. The fence is really secure, I was so pleased with that. Overall an excellent experience for all to have. We will be back again!
I really enjoyed this spot and so did Luna! She loved the high grass to jump around in. I like that she was able to socialize with their dogs! We will be back! Nice place and peopleĀ
Such a good space, very clean! Easy to find everything! We will be back!
Excellent for reactive dogs that need room to roam and space to explore and sniff for mental enrichment! Will be back soon!
My dog had a wonderful time wandering around the yard and doing zoomies. I felt confident that the yard was secure and provided lots of enrichment for her. Thank you!
This was our 2nd time at this SniffSpot and it was just as delightful as the 1st time! Spending a couple hours in the sun on a beautiful property was good for the soul ā„ļø Looking forward to going back again sometime soon.
What you can expect: Clear communication from the lovely host, secure gates/fencing, and a wonderful space for your dog to explore and play! My pup loved romping in the tall grass, dunking into the kiddie pool, and playing with Kuma!
I highly recommend this spot for dog owners, sitters, and trainers. It's a convenient and quiet location.
This is a great SniffSpot! Very easy to find with clear directions from the host,Ā Lorraine (who is also a fantastic communicator about all of the necessary info).Ā
The gates and fencing are super sturdy so no worries about dogs escaping here, there are little paths mowed throughout the yard, and hose water access with a dog bowl. We walked in loops almost the whole time we were there so the humans could get some exercise too, while my pup enjoyed running around, chasing bugs/birds, and playing with her ball. Ā
This is definitely a convenient location for anyone in town, and would be excellent for some safe off leash training and dog to dog play!
A perfect spot for our 3 dogs who range in age from 2 to 13. It felt safe and secure and was clean. Paths mowed into taller grasses for running laps, sunny and shady spots. Everyone had a great time, including the humans. We will return soon.
Water bowls with fresh clean water, and gates latches sanitized prior to our visit. Thanks Lorraine, for sharing your beautiful space.
