55Our dog and us had a great time here. He had a blast running through the underbrush and splashing in the creek. The views were beautiful. We will be back!
55We had a great time! The trails were better than expected and well maintained, and from what we walked, they always seemed to connect to each other which was nice. Erik generously offered to let us pick apples afterwards as well! Upon getting back to our car, there was fresh water waiting for us. One of my favorite spots to hike! Even unfenced, off leash wasn’t a problem at all. Will definitely be coming back with both my dogs next time!
55Amazing spot!
55This is always such a relaxing and enjoyable adventure!
55Good space and trails, set well back from the roads. It is right next to an occupied cow pasture (barbed wire fence) on one side. Good underbrush for dog exploration. Around half the trail was in shade.
55Truly a beautiful piece of land. We were able to walk up and down some paths and just enjoy the quiet!
55This was our first Sniffspot experience. This was amazing! The host was very kind and great at communicating. It was the perfect place for my high energy hunting dog to run and sniff and explore. The trails were really nice and it is a beautiful property. They left water by our car for when we got back which I thought was so sweet. My dog had an absolute blast and we will definitely be back!!
55This is a wonderful place! Great hosts and an ideal environment for both people and dogs. At most sniffs spots, my dogs wait for me to entertain them. Not the case here. They loved exploring the woods and were too busy having fun to ask for frisbees or balls. They unlocked a new fear: grouse, and were more interested in observing turtles from a safe distance. They truly had a great time, as did I. I loved the varied terrain, and nothing makes me happier than watching the dogs do dog things without the encumbrances of leashes and expectations. We’ll definitely be back.
55Wowza. This is a stellar location- so worth the drive. We all enjoyed a wonderful morning hike. Great communication and instructions. We will definitely be back!
55What a beautiful setting! My dog and I had a great time exploring.

PALS Park Upper (private)

Fully Fenced
2 acres

PALS park Upper, is a space we have curated for our three dogs, Penelope (20 lb., (F) Boston Terrier), Arthur, and Lewis (55-70 lb., (M) Cattle Dog mixes and biological brothers). Arthur and Lewis “do not play well with others” (they're herding dogs and tend to herd other dogs). Penelope is smaller and getting older, so she gets bullied at dog parks. We needed an open space with fencing, a relatively quiet area, yet far enough away from residential areas because our dogs bark a bit more than average and we don't want to be a bother to our neighbors. We realized this is the need for many dogs and dog parents (like us), and those dogs are not always afforded the ability to go to a dog park and be off leash, and be in a stress-free environment. That’s why we offer our space, a place we have made exclusively to let our dogs and YOURS be the very best version of themselves. Dogs deserve to be dogs, and that’s our aim at PALS Park. **At the park we do our very best to offer a 5 star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ experience. We are always looking for ways to improve the park, for you and your dogs. With constructive, positive, and a 5 star review, we will be better equipped to meet your needs. Also, leaving ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ would be pretty darn PAWSOME! **If there is something about your visit that isn’t worthy of a 5 star review, please message me and I can make it right. *We also have a (M) grey and white cat named Stumpy. He is indoors 75% of the time and makes himself VERY scarce when new people/cars are around. *There is ample parking and the driveway will be cleared of snow in the winter months. If there is a massive snowfall we will do our best to make a path. *There is a horse shelter in the park (we are slowly turning into the guest space). That’s where you will find several pooper scoopers with a bucket for poops without poop bags, a poop bag station, and a few mobile poop bag holders. There is a trash can for bagged poo and trash. We have set out some people chairs and an elevated dog bed. There are always refreshed buckets of water around the park. Who can forget the toys? We have two deck boxes full of toys. A larger one near the house as well as a smaller one at the shelter. There is also a tennis ball hopper at the shelter. Toys can be put back in either box, and please try your best to return them before you leave. **PROPER POOP DISPOSAL PROCEDURE** #2 can be: -pitched over the fence (bagless) -put into the trash can (if bagged) Karmic Poop Pick Up - we have a ton of space to play, so the odds of missing a poo now and then are high, we totally get it. See a poop? Pick it up (with a provided poop bag) and all day long you'll have good luck! We have a 700 gallon stock tank pool (not open November - May) just for the dogs. This will be available for an extra charge of $5 per dog. We will provide some towels for pool use and for general wet weather, because we know a wet dog in a car is not fun. Please drape the used/wet towels over the large grey gate at entrance before you leave. For human safety, please try to stay off the patio/porch near the home as it’s slippery when wet. Those areas will marked with a yellow plastic chain or closed off with black gates. If the dogs make it up there it isn’t a big deal, just be careful retrieving them.

Lots of perennials to sniff and explore. We back up to the Lakeview Woods Conservancy so you may even spot a deer or six as they go through their trail. Shade for both humans and dogs.
