55My dog had a lot of fun here. Loved how big it was here and clean.
55Amazing experience . Many thanks !!!
55A very beautiful Nature back yard on a hillside. Felt like walking in a small private forest. We had fun! My dog really enjoyed taking turns between cooling off in the kiddy pool, and running up and down the hills chasing balls and frisbee. Definitely a good place to exercise your dog running up & dowm on the steep hillside. But for the human, walking up and down the hills are challenging. Wear shoes that grip, as the hillsides dirt and leaves are soft, and slipping is too easy to do. Area is fully fenced, so it's a nice safe area to let your dog roam, smell and play. Thank you, we enjoyed it! exercise here.
55Amazing host! Great place to have the pups run, sniff and have a lot of fun! ♥️🐶🐶🐶
55We enjoyed this spot so much! We loved the steep scramble and exploration as well as little games of fetch on the flat. We met friends here and chatted while we threw the ball. Host was kind and thoughtful, welcoming us all.
55My dogs enjoyed sniffing! Nice place!
55Amazing spot! This was our first time taking Reina, our rottie, to a Sniffspot. She had an amazing time. There’s a ping pong table too which was mine and my mom’s favorite part!!! They were so sweet and had treats ready in a jar with a label saying what they are, hand sanitizer, poop bags, disinfectant, etc. They also put out water bowls. One on the floor and two on a little stand which is perfect for the larger dogs. Reina’s favorite part was definitely the little pool. So excited to book our next visit 😊
55What a wonderful backyard to use! Huge hill, so just be mindful of ability to walk up hills, but our clover loved it. ❤️
55Nice Place!
55This place is awesome! Much to see and do. The hill adds interest and makes the place feel very big. My dog loved the pool and all the toys!

Description

We love dogs and wanted to open up our expansive yard to other dog lovers. Play endless ball throwing up the hill, sit in the shade while your doggies run around. Explore the trees area high up on the hill. Bring a friend and play pingpong or monkey around on the zip line or the play structure! In fall and winter, enjoy the green grasses and seasonal creek! The hill up to the top is steep and uneven, exercise caution. Please make every effort to pick up after your dog, I provide baggies if needed, and trash cans for your convenience! Enjoy and thank you! 🐶

Cleanliness

100% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

Hazards

HOST NOTE

Hill to top of property is fairly steep with some uneven ground, and gravel so slippery, please use caution! Wear hiking shoes if you want to explore! Also, there are stickers, the small burs, somewhere up on the hill, not exactly sure where but wanted to note. We back to open space so seeing deers and squirrels is fairly common.

A beautiful fenced-in 3+ acre parcel with hills, a few trees, areas with short and tall grass. Dogs absolutely love it here. Occasionally we’ll see wild turkeys and a few deer (and a gopher or squirrel here and there) but otherwise it is a dog roaming paradise. Easy to pull in and park on the gravel area. I have dog bowls, a few toys, 3 pooper scoopers, emergency poop bags, and a couple of washing stations. Cell reception is reasonably good here.

The Gulch Lake

Unfenced
100 acres

The ultimate dog escape! A certified organic ranch and dreamy lake surrounded by rolling hills! Your dogs can experience wild foul, fish and cattle or spend their time time swimming away at the lake! There is a picnic table (not in the best shape, but can fit about 4 people) for your stuff and a great combination of sun and shade surrounding the lake! We recently added a 1.2 mile trail around our property. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do! Accessing our lake requires a bit of a walk through uneven terrain with cow holes, which may be challenging for some. If you have difficulty walking on rough ground, this Sniffspot may not be the best fit. While there is a path, it is not perfectly smooth, and less active visitors may find it hard to navigate. Cows do roam freely in the same field. They are harmless, but please be sure to close all gates securely when entering or leaving the area. We recommend ignoring the cows—they’ll leave you alone if you do the same. Our house is the only house on the right side of the road. Please do not stop/disturb the first houses on the left side of the driveway. Keep coming down our driveway and park near the light blue green house on the right. If you’re wondering if we test for toxic blue green algae, the answer is yes! The test was negative! Please see our pictures for confirmation of a negative test! Test performed on 6/1/25
