55Bryan warned me that with all the rain it could be muddy, so I was prepared. It still was a great experience. Lots and lots of space for the pups to run. Completely fenced in, although you can go outside the fence if you want to visit the creek/river. Teddy and Beau enjoyed running and smelling all the new smells that were ever present. They met some chickens and a horse! Bryan was very accommodating, very kind. Lois I.

55Brian warned me it would be muddy from all the spring rain, so I was prepared. The fence was very secure, and my pup is exhausted from exploring! Brian was very kind and accommodating! We will definitely be back!
I parked in Brian’s yard, and he walked me down to the gate and directed me towards the driest path to enter. I took the path along the outside of the fence where there are pallets laid down. Brian was super helpful! Katie H.

55We absolutely love this spot. A huge fenced in area. Our dog was so happy to have so much off leash space to explore. There is also a trail along the river that is lovely. The hosts are extremely friendly and accommodating. We will definitely be returning!Jessica P.

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. Our hiking trails tend to be outside the city, which lends to more privacy, but it is also important to follow typical hiking safety precautions, such as potentially having trail maps.
