55This was the most AMAZING place ever!!! Our dog Nico is very anxious and because we don’t have much open space in the city it was so nice to let him run around and be somewhere where he could just have fun! Margaret was so sweet and responsive! She is so generous for letting people use her space! I 1000% recommend this place and will definitely be coming back!!!! Morgan K.

55This place was amazing! It was so peaceful for both me and my dog. There’s so much space to explore, sniff, and play! I can’t say enough good things. This is EXACTLY the place to go if you and your reactive dog just need a break to be out in nature together without the concern of running into people or other dogs. Margaret was great and so responsive! We will definitely be back. Deepa I.

55Visits like this are what make sniffspot so wonderful! Our host gave us clear and detailed directions and left a lovely snack for us and our pups to enjoy as we explored the beautiful fields. Plenty of space for a great game of fetch and lots to sniff and explore for our hound mix. My husband and I enjoyed as well with the luxury of exploring such a large property with the varied fields, hedgerows and trials. Our only regret is that we don’t live close enough to visit every week but it has us planning out next vacation to return to this area and to this sniffspot!Jen M.

55What a peaceful spot! We had a great time just walking through the fields and enjoying a warm winter morning. The property is clean and well-kept, and the host is very welcoming. Well worth the drive for us - we will definitely be back! Natalie M.

55This place is absolutely amazing! Margaret is an amazing home and the property is beautiful. I took my 6 month old whippet and 3 year old German shepherd. I can honestly say, this was probably the most fun they ever had. Will be back soon! Samantha B.

55This is a amazing spot! My dog loved it, she is very dog reactive and it makes it difficult for her to be able to enjoy being outside and this spot is perfect and secluded. Will definitely be back!Brittany K.

55We cannot wait to come back! Such a fabulous sniff spot! Margaret was an incredible host! She reached out about inclement weather the day before our initially scheduled visit and suggested we reschedule, which was super sweet, so we swapped days and had perfect weather.
I brought my four personal dogs and they absolutely loved the open fields to tear around and be crazy! It has been raining for days so it was pretty wet with puddles on part of the walking trail but the dogs didn't care and I was in waterproof boots so it was all good. The puddles were actually lovely to clean off the muck from the really mucky spots down by the stream. We ventured down to the stream and it was big fun, the dogs love water and were splashing around even with temps in the 40s.
The water bucket and cooler with snacks, water, and a map were VERY appreciated!tena 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.
