We had a great time visiting today. David met us as we arrived and he was very pleasant and helpful. Lots to explore and Rusty enjoyed the water, even on this breezy March day. The map was a good resource though I don’t think we checked every aspect of the property. I will definitely return as this was a great off leash spot!
Always a great time! And cleared more space for the dogs to run!
David’s Sniffspot continues to be the best of the best. My dogs have the time of their lives whenever we visit (and so do I). Can’t wait to come back soon!
David’s Sniffspot is quite simply a gem. Plenty of space for dogs to run free without the worry of bumping into any unexpected people or dogs. There’s a lot of exploring to do, lots of different areas to check out, and beautiful wide trails that keep you on track. I can’t wait to come back. Thanks, David!!!
Always a good time! The dogs absolutely love their time at David’s!
Love this place! Woods, water, mud: a little something for everyone 🤣🤣
One of the best sniffspots in New England. Thank you for sharing !!
Hands down, this is the best Sniffspot. David was very quick to respond to our booking request and gave detailed instructions on where to park, along with a map of the property. The property is beautiful, with several spots with bodies of water, cool scrap metal/antiques to look at, sniffs galore, and all the branches/sticks my dog could ask for. The map was helpful as other reviews mentioned, but aside from using it as a reference so we didn't go off the property, it wasn't necessary since there were creative named signs up and the walkable paths are well maintained. We wound up having such a great time we asked if we could extend our stay and David was more than accommodating. We will definitely be back!
Cool spot, plenty of trails and paths to explore.
I love this place! There is plenty of space to let your dogs explore and run....assuming they are pretty good about coming when called since it is not fenced. Even if you have to keep them on a leash just use a long training lead....it's still a great walk. The first time I went I had some difficulty getting my bearings but this time I asked David for some kind of map defining boundaries and we did much better. If you stay on the main trails you will be fine....and will end up at a place for the dogs to play in water. We did a fair amount of bushwhacking last time but still managed to find our way back. We will definitely be returning. David is super responsive and accommodating. Highly recommend!
