55The pups and I had a great time on the trails! I really appreciate all the touches that make a visit go smoothly: pictures of how to find the location, parking, entrance to the trails; the map of the trails; supplies in case we forgot; and even trash cans along the trails for easy disposal. Beautiful place. I can’t wait to go back and see the trails we didn’t get to (the pups are dachshunds, so we only got so far with their little legs and all the great sniffs!)
55Great private spot and easy to navigate. The dogs loved it and there was so much land to keep going!
55Another great day at Martin’s sniff spot.
55Beautiful groomed trails, host was absolutely wonderful and accommodating. My girls had an absolute blast. We definitely will be back!
55Beautiful property well maintained. My dogs explored and ran around a lot. The map that Martin gives you is very helpful as is the bug sprsy!! Lots of property to roam around and have lots of fun!!
55Martin is a great host, provided a map and extra info on the trails
55We had such a great experience at this Sniffspot! Martin was incredibly helpful and welcoming - he met us when we arrived and provided a really helpful map of all the trails, which made exploring the property easy. The trails were very well maintained and clearly signposted, and the property itself is beautiful with lots to explore. We visited during the summer when there were quite a few bugs around, so bug spray is definitely a must! We also arrived late for our reservation, and Martin was very accommodating and understanding, which we really appreciated. Overall, it was a wonderful spot and we can’t wait to come back! 🐾
55What a beautiful space for our dogs to explore. The trails are nicely marked and easy to navigate. Very friendly and welcoming hosts. We will certainly be back.
55We had such an amazing time here! The trail was absolutely beautiful, and Rip had the best time exploring and sniffing everything. The map provided was incredibly helpful and made navigating the property so easy. The host was also so kind and polite. We will definitely be coming back — we can’t wait for our next visit! 🐾❤️
55Dogs loved running the trails. Everything was clearly marked. We will be back!

Hazards

HOST NOTE

This spot has a water feature, make sure to review these guidelines for visiting spots with water before visiting: https://help.sniffspot.com/article/167-how-to-keep-your-dog-safe-around-pools-and-water Bee hives on one trail - they don't like small dogs! Easy to avoid, well marked. Bees aren't active in fall and winter, but stay away from the hives anyway. We live out in the country and there are coyotes. They are very shy, and if you stay on or near the trails you will never see them. Avoid dusk or early morning if this is a concern for you.

I love to ski, so I cut a lot of trails. My dog Teddy is a shy but friendly Shitzu-Poodle mix who likes to go on long walks. Teddy and I are happy to share the trails with other dogs.

We have a very large, fully fenced front yard with gate access from parking lot. *Please note there is an operating dog kennel at the back of the house* You will hear other dogs barking but you will not see them. There are other animals on the property as well. Horses & goats in back yard, chickens & cats free roam. These animals will not approach when with a dog, but leash training & a good grip required for all dogs on the walk from the car to the play yard. This yard goes unused aside from our two personal dogs that do not take advantage of it. We are hoping it can bring joy to other dogs in need. Great spot for lots of running!
