55We had an amazing time. It’s a beautiful space with lots of room to play. And the human space is very comfortable too.
55We stopped here while traveling from Chicago to Colorado and couldn’t have been happier with the experience! The host was absolutely great — communication was excellent, responses were prompt, and he was very accommodating. The Sniffspot itself is HUGE, fully and securely fenced, clean, and had fresh water available. It was the perfect place to let them stretch their legs and get some energy out during a long road trip. We will definitely be stopping here again if we travel through the area in the future. Highly recommend!
55Great space. Perfect fence and nice grass. Dogs had a blast.
55Highly recommend this yard. My dogs love it here!!
55Everything was great as usual! Host was responsive to questions as well…. Value added!! Thanks!
55A lovely spot, lots of space and room to explore. The yard was clean and well taken care of. We appreciated the gazebo to shield us from the rain!
55Very nice 1 acre property with some shade trees. Water and chairs were available as well. Overall great spot and we would love to come back.
55A wonderful spot to play! Thank you!
55First time visiting for a last minute booking. Place is immaculate and my boys had a blast. The photos don't do it justice!
55Very spacious
