55I can’t rave enough about this spot for my dogs. Brought my mom and her dog for the first time and they had a doodle blast! Trails were meticulously mowed. Very few bugs and I haven’t spotted a tick-yet. Fresh water for the pups too! They found shade and rested after an hour of running! Chris O.

55We had a lovely time! We haven’t been in a while, or at least I don’t remember that fenced enclosure up front being there before. Very nice! Great to have a trash can and water available, too. Thank you so much! Shaggy was smiling the whole way home. We’ll be back! Laura B.

55Absolutely love this Sniffspot!! Took them to the fenced in area to run around a bit, then went for a walk around the grounds. Beautiful scenery, cute little animal crossing signs, toys and water at the fenced in area. Love it, will definitely be back!Manda M.

55Another great visit! Grabbed the ball provided at the entrance to the fenced in area, and let them run around off leash inside most of the time. So thankful for a spot like this that they can be off leash and just run!Manda M.

55We haven’t been back in a while but I was so happy to see the changes today! I love the fenced area to let our dog off leash to play fetch. Then we enjoy the trails on leash. Thank you for providing a long lead as well since we couldn’t find ours today! Love the pollinator habitats area, too. I can’t wait to return soon! Samantha K.

55Perfect spot! Aria and Beau loved it. We hiked the well groomed trails. Even though there was a lot of rain before our visit, most of it is high ground, so it worked out great. We use the fenced area after our hike to play ball. Perfect way to get an adventure and exercise in our day before going to the hotel. We’ll be using this spot again when we travel near Eau Claire.Angela O.

55Dogs had so much fun. So much so, Luka didn’t want to leave! When we started walking towards the car and he laid down and wouldn’t budge. He tried pulling me back to the fenced area nudging his ball with his nose 😆 thank you, always a great timeManda M.

55We always have a great time here. We love the trails where our younger pup can run full speed while we can also keep an eye on our older dog who spends more time sniffing around.Karen M.

55Nice walking paths! A few spots my puppy tried to run out but there weren’t many distractions so it was a good chance to practice his recall and he did fine!Hanna T.

55We had such a great time! The fenced in area was great for our pup to run around and the trail was fabulous. We did hear dogs barking for the first bit of out time slot, which wasn’t issue for our dog who doesn’t hear so well, but worth noting. It was nice that there was a garbage can to throw away our poop bags in as well! We will most definitely be back!Bridget K.

55This is a nice and peaceful Sniffspot with fields, rolling hills, and small trees. There is a smaller fenced-in area for training where there was also a handy water dish. It would be an excellent place to view the sunset, but I was a bit early! Next time.Roxy A.

55Continues to be our favorite place to run without worrying about other dogs. The owners dogs are in kennels and do bark quite a bit, but my dogs have learned to ignore them or he gives us a heads up and we don’t walk where they are located. Chris O.
