55We booked this sniffspot because it’s one of our dog’s birthdays and they LOVED it. There’s lots to sniff, walk over and go under so your dog will get plenty of enrichment. They ran circles around the lemon trees and overall had a great time. A few notes, it’s not a privacy fence like it says on the description so your dog might see some people! Also there’s a lot of places to hide so if your dog eats random things, keep an eye on them.
55This place was adorable, eclectic, and peaceful. Lots of nooks and crannies to explore amd plenty of room for my 2 dogs to run around. I'll be going back!
55This was a great first experience using Sniffspot. I thought it was so nice that they had a seating area and toys and water very welcoming.
45Area is cute but rather small. Ideal for smaller or older dogs. A good, safe place for dogs to be off leash and explore.
35I have been so conflicted about writing this review. Here's why: The space is gorgeous. There is so much character and a lot of work that was put into it. The space is big for a dog to really run around in. There were toys and treats, plenty of sitting areas and shade, there is even a small pond that my dog absolutely loved and spent most of her time in. We booked the place for an hour but had to leave after half an hour. When we arrived, I checked to make sure the coast is clear and then took off my dogs leash so she could run around. At this exact time, a small white (super cute) dog came to talk to my girl from the neighbors side (driveway side). The thing is, I use sniffspot because my Belgian malinois is not very friendly towards other dogs and needs her own space (we are working on it with professional trainers). She immediately bolted towards this dog and I went running after her. I will note, training is paying off because she did not bark at this dog. I led my girl to the other side of the yard where the fun stuff is. She kept coming back to the fence where the other dog was (at this point that dog was gone and we did not see him/ her again). Given my dogs abilities (which she is unaware of) I was worried she would ultimately jump the fence. Before booking this space, I did check and it said no other dogs can be seen or heard. It also says the fence is 6' high. I'm 5'2" (and a half!), I was taller than the fence in a lot of places. Additionally, against the fence (other side of the yard)- there were a lot of items like barrels and wood that my dog kept trying to go on top of which acted as stairs for her to potentially get to the other side (I kept making her come down). There is also a yellow electrical cord going across the space which my not so bright dog kept tripping over. This meant that I needed to contain her to one small area near the pond. She loved the pond so it was great but ultimately, I took her out early because i was not feeling confident that I'd be able to maintain control. I think this place will be great for a friendly dog who is more well behaved than mine and less agile than mine. Sadly, River and I will not be able to come back to this location.
55Great spot for sniffing around
55My girl loved running around and it's so nice and very clean.
55Exactly as described. Loki enjoyed the smells.
55Nice clean, safe, big area with a great mix of sun and shade to play around in. Toys, seating, and dog drinking water provided. Easy parking and entry. Great experience!
55Great place for the pups to run around and chase each other as well as get great sniffs! We’ve been twice now and both times have been great! We will be definitely be back! Something to note, there is a well kept sago palm on the property, so it’s important to keep an eye on your pups as these are extremely toxic for dogs.

    Host replied: Glad you enjoyed your stay! NOTED: hubs just explained to me what a privacy fence is! I thought because of our trees and bushes we planted for privacy was the same! Changing on my description! Happy Birthday to your pup ❤️🐾❤️

    Host replied: Glad you enjoyed your stay! Sorry you felt the 1/2 acre to be small! The entire area is meant to be for the dogs, no restricted area other than the backyard due to the pool, etc!
