55Autumn is here, and the trails are absolutely beautiful with all the fall foliage! On the chilly, wet days there's a lovely firepit ready to keep you warm and complementary towels for the pups. Woodland Tranquility sniffspot is very accommodating for this season, and provides a wonderful aesthetic for the outdoor lovers. Our pup loves to play frisbee, and the open yard spece is perfect for it! Tia H.

55We had a lovely peaceful wander here. Great opportunities to sit and rest and play hide and seek along the trail. Didn't seem muddy to us at all and Pepper loved zooming around.Sara B.

55I had a little trouble finding the sniff spot but that was my fault for not writing down the directions and only following my GPS there. GPS spun us around a few times but we finally found it. I brought my eldest, more adventurous dog here alone to scope it out before we brought the whole pack and he had a great time. The trails are nice and easy to navigate, not much to worry about tripping over etc, and I deemed it safe enough to come back with the rest of my dogs another day. We had a ton of fun here and will definitely be returning. Ryn W.

55Beautiful spot on a beautiful fall day! Our pup had so much fun running ahead of us on the trail and even enjoyed a quick dip in the stream. Thank you for the clean, fun spot to play!LINDSAY K.

55Erin’s spot was so pretty and well maintained. The trail is trimmed well and has a stream that our dogs enjoyed playing into, I could see my dog exploring and enjoying the nature at her sniffspot. Not only they have multiple routes for you to enjoy (1 rep took 20 mins or so), she prepared doggy bags, few toys, water for pups, and fireplace for humans to stay warm! Susie K.

55Wow! This spot is so amazing and has so much thought put into it. They have signs that help you navigate through the various trails so you don't get turned around. It looks like you are pulling up into someone's yard but it's just the house and garage on property and you if you feel comfortable you can just open your car and let your dog run. We closed the gate just in case my naughty terrier got any bad ideas but she didn't even go that direction. I felt comfortable letting my girl run free in a non fully fenced area as most of the property has little boundary fences. There is an area at the very top of the property that isn't fenced and I think it leads to someone else's property but I was able to redirect back to the trails. You can stay on upper trails and not have a whole lot of up and downs. I don't know if the trails would be suitable for senior of disabled dogs though but you could definitely stay below with them. I absolutely 100% will book again and wish every spot was this amazing, private, and well thought out! Thank you so much for sharing ❤ Melissa C.

55It was our first time using sniffspot and we couldn’t have picked a better place! I took 3 pups and 4 kids with me and we all had a blast! The dogs and kids played hide and go seek and there were plenty trails for them to run around safely. We will be back! Julia U.

55Gorgeous and fun on a rainy day in winter. My partner and I have been sick with a cold and our one year old German Shepherd was on minimal exercise for almost 2 weeks, so we decided to bring him here and let him run off some pent up energy for about 90 minutes. We strolled through the woods on short looping trails as he dashed around us and splashed in the creek. It's a good size space for dogs who like to sniff and explore but not stray too far from their humans. If your dog is prone to wandering far or chasing wildlife it might not be the best place for them off leash as the fencing would not secure a determined dog. Mine, however, ran face first into the 4 foot high wire grid fence in a fit of euphoria and felt very silly after. He is used to short and flimsy fences and doesn't try to get through them, so it worked fine for us.
I imagine it's really lovely in summer, there's even a patio with some chairs for humans to lounge. However this area, and the open spaces that would be good for fetch or chase, are closest to the driveway and closable, but not fully secure for the determined canine, swinging gate. It's about a 50 minute drive from our house in the best of traffic conditions so I don't know how often I'll return, but it's a great spot and I would definitely like to come back when I can.Simon C.

55Still my favorite spot around! My doggos love the trails and I never worry they can escape bc the whole area is fenced. We stay up above the house in the maze of trails stopping by the stream for a refresh every so often. Tranquility Trails is private and magical! Kristin s.

55We love this spot. Nice trails and a stream to play in. My only recommendation would be to add more obvious/ bright signage on the wire fence by the stream. It's clearly marked for human eyes but multiple dogs we've brought have gone tearing around the corner and run right into it! Thanks again for sharing your beautiful property! Karli L.

55What a beautiful spot! Easy to find, nice parking, nice amenities. The trails seemed to be less than we were expecting but might just be a winter scenario. This is the most wilderness feel closest to our house so we will definitely be back!Leslie C.

55This was our first time to this beautiful sniff spot and after hitting all the trails I decided to practice some recall. It was great! We ran around the property probably 10 times. If your dog is sensitive to gun fire this may not be the spot for you or maybe go on a weekday. But there was gun fire the entire hour we were there (afternoon on a Saturday), but it ended up being good recall practice. It's a beautiful setting which out weighed everything else. Super clean, the makings for s'mores, water for your pup and other items you may have forgotten. We will be back!!Kara W.

55Clear and helpful signage (with some cute decorations) led us right up to the sniffspot with an already lit campfire! Short pretty trails for lots of sniffing, small open grassy area too. The s’mores kit, water, and toys were an extra bonus to an already great spot. We had a great time and just beat the rain! Athina M.

All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines. Some great ways to stay safe around water with your dog include learning canine CPR and keep an eye on your dog at all times to ensure they are not distressed.

We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
