55This is a very nice sniff-spot.
55So happy that I did this ! Val was quick to answer questions and my dogs had so much fun. Thank you !
55I wish our first visit was during the daytime as I was a little unsure, but luckily we ran into the owner and she kindly gave us some guidance. My dogs loved having the open space to run around and play safely. It was a fantastic first visit and definitely plan to come back
55Maple and Barley loved the back yard! Plenty of space to run and several spots to sniff! We will be back.
55Perfect location for Bear. As we live in Wildewood this location is perfect. Parking is easy and access to the yard is also just as easy. Plenty of room for your pup to walk/ run around and has a good amount of “woody” areas for plenty of sniffing and lots of open area for running as well. Will definitely bring Bear back to use some of his husky energy.
55Second visit and it was as great as the first!
55Chesterfield absolutely loved it here! Lots of places to explore and of course he gets to run free! Thanks.
55Nice spacious yard with plenty of room for my two dogs to get their zoomies out after a 5 day car ride and 3 days in a hotel room! Lots of areas for them to sniff and explore as well. Host also had water and tennis balls available which was nice. Will be back for sure!
55Such a great yard! Bigger then I expected, so much to explore, my pups loved it! It’s very easy to get into the yard, you can park right near the gate to the back yard which is so helpful having two pups and one of me! The host was very responsive! We will definitely be back!
55Sadie and I had a blast! Lovely, quiet, spacious, fully fenced area for me and my 33lb terrier/beagle mix canine kiddo. She enjoyed an adventurous sniffari around the whole yard, we played chase/tug with her favorite toy, and spotted squirrels and birds outside the fence which is always exciting for this huntress! We even practiced some basic training commands. All off-leash… a major luxury, as I have no fence at home and have never had off-leash time outdoors with Sadie since rescuing her in November 2020. (She’s dog-reactive/anxious, so dog parks and dog visitors are a no-go.) My home is very small, so indoor off-leash time is space-limited. Seeing her run, jump, and just be silly and free was the highlight of my day! Thank you, Christina (our host) and thank you Sniffspot!

The 80 acre wood

We have a beautiful 80 acre farm with loads of space for furry friends and their owners to enjoy the outdoors! ****EFFECTIVE APRIL 1**** Our back large field that leads to our wood walking trails- please remain to the right side following tire mark trail. It is hay growing season and need to commit to that trail. This will be in place until our hay cut at the end of the summer, early fall. *please fill in any holes your dog may dig. This has been an increasing issue on our property. If your dog is a digger please visit our over grown arena which is at the very top of our driveway and has a bridge . They can dig to their hearts content in that location! This is a working farm! We have animals that need tending too, so you may hear us from time to time on equipment/ tending to our animals! We have options of fenced in spaces for our friends that prefer to be closed in, a space for climbing and digging , and open spaces to run or trails to walk! Currently back trails are not officially marked but path is clear with tire tracks. Please be mindful of trees or branches from above and below. Possible risk of tripping and falling in the paths. *****please take note for friends looking to use fenced in area-we have slats that need replacing****** This is on our spring repair list this year, so please use with caution. We also do sell our farm fresh, free range eggs, as an addition to our services, which you will find in the extras. You can add in with your reservation! We can’t wait for you all to visit!
