55This is place is great! Plenty of room for our pup to run around safely, he loves it here! We have seen some dogs in the neighbor's yard along one side of the fence but each time they've put them back in their house so it hasn't been an issue. Love that you can drive in and close the gate and then let your pup out. James A.

55This was our second time at this spot and it was great! Spacious and clean. We enjoyed trying out the weave poles. For those with people reactive dogs—we could sporadically see/hear folks working outside behind a fenced off area near the house during the first part of our visit. Our dog was fine with it, but worth noting for others. No people were within the sniffspot during our visit though, of course. Alli B.

55This was our first visit here. It was a bit muddy as expected, with all the recent storms, but my dog loved it! It’s a lot less muddy than my backyard at the moment, as there is quite a bit of grass here. The play area is huge, with lots of places for dogs to explore. There are also a few balls scattered around for dogs to play with, and a water source. Susan S.

55My dogs have a great time here and this was our second visit! It’s a wide open field with a few Oak trees and very relaxed setting with chairs and toys and a water dish. I was grateful for the hose since Charlie was rolling in the mud puddles (expected from all the rain this year) and having a blast. My dogs loved roaming around and playing fetch and sniffing around this spot!!Hilary E.

55After many visits, this continues to be one of our favorite SniffSpots. It's one of the biggest we've found, and it has interesting nooks and crannies to explore. Right now it is soggy in places because of the torrential inter rains. My two Anatolian Shepherds love cavorting in the puddles. I wear duck shoes so I can cavort with them while keeping my feet dry.Bret M.

55Super safe place for our large breed bloodhound to roam and explore off leash-something she doesn’t get the chance to do because she’ll never come back. She’ll sleep good tonight. Leslie D.

55So much fun for dogs! Various terrain and lots to explore. If you have a mischievous little dog that doesn’t listen, like I do, you have to be mindful around the cattle gates. They can squeeze through if they were determined. Other than that, it is the perfect place for dogs to be dogs. We will be back. Robin C.

55Another great visit to this Sniffspot. There were areas that were a bit muddy, but most was fine. If you bring a towel to wipe your pup(s) off you’ll be good. Caroline H.

55Another fun visit! I messaged the owner to see if the fields had been mowed since we have not been here since the rains- got a prompt reply that 1/2 the field was mowed-perfect! There are a lot of lovely wildflowers all around. Angela R.

55New favorite spot! Not just because it is a beautiful space with lots of room to run and good sniffing, not to mention the views near sunset, but because Jorge and his wife are the nicest people and so kind and generous with their beautiful space. Can’t wait to return, Willow did not want to get back in the car 😁.Natalia M.

55Our dogs loved this spot. We have 3 large breeds and 1 seven pound dog. The little dog had to be kept on leash because there were spots she could have squeezed through and gotten out (mainly the front gate). She’s usually pretty good but cars fly down Bodega and we didn’t want to risk it. We didn’t see any spots a bigger dog would be able to get out. Water bowl and trash can available which was super nice. Contactless entry and exit. We will definitely be back with our big dogs! Emily C.

55Great spot! Big open space for curious nose to explore. Parking and entry instructions were clear. Fresh water on site, even some toys. Fencing pretty tight - my nosey and troublemaker GSP wasn’t able to get out. Will def come back.Jessica N.

55Excellent spot! Very spacious, recently mowed. The dogs had a great time exploring. Do be mindful of the gate if you have a smaller pup, as there is a bit of a gap. Tressa F.
