Description

We hope you will give us a try and visit Nashville's very first Sniffspot and the most popular Sniffspot in middle Tennessee to this day! Read on for details … we love sharing our secret place! This Sniffspot is very conveniently located in southeast Nashville, 20 minutes from downtown, right near Bell Rd/Nolensville Rd between the Hickory Hollow pkwy/Tanger Outlets i24 and Bell Rd exits and the Brentwood i65 Old Hickory Blvd exit. An idyllic setting offers 7+ park-like acres of old farm land, mostly fenced, that includes waterfront access to Mill Creek with adventures for all kinds of humans and dogs to enjoy activities like playing, running, sniffing, digging and playing in the water. Come get your steps in and spend some quality off-leash time! Training, photo shoots, picnics, birthday and gotcha parties, just explore, rest, or relax in the Adirondack chairs while your dogs sniff, zoom, roam, retrieve, sniff, dig, walk, run, and sniff some more. There's creek access to swim, pastures to roam or nap, play areas of tall grass the dogs can explore, sniff, dig or derp around. Even plan your picnic on a blanket or use the picnic table. Get some exercise on the trampoline (Note: use at your own risk!). Make this sniffspot your private oasis for as long as you want.. Kids are always welcome! Just book your play time, bring at least one dog and all humans are free! Mill Creek borders the very back of the property and is available for water play but trees and vegetation and overall acreage makes it easily avoidable if that's not your thing. If you choose to venture to the creek and have a runner, you may want to bring a long lead. The water levels are usually below the knee, but the ability to use Mill Creek safely depends on you, the creek conditions, and amount of recent rainfall. Always assess the abilities of you and your pets- as safety comes first! As Dirty Harry once said, "A man's got to know his limitations." The majority of the property has fencing so once you pass the house on your way to the back fields it's off leash play time! I recommend considering walking the perimeter first (on or off leash) to orient yourself with property features and assess potential escape opportunities. Your dog(s) will benefit from a perimeter walk allowing them to visually identify, mark their spots, and collect sniffs while at the same time reaping the benefit of your pack leaving an invisible "bread crumb" scent trail as you walk which will assist a dog with future identification of the established boundaries as well. This is a natural instinct for many breeds. Note that Mill Creek along the back of the entire property is not fenced but it is mostly obscured at dogs level by trees and vegetation. Tip: When leaving, you may want to leash up before you reach the house - especially if you have a runner since there is no fence on the side of the house you enter and leave the spot. Depending on the water table, there is also a small feeder stream gently flowing through the middle of the property between the side and back fields. It can be great fun for a dog to explore and jump in and out of (just try and stop them!) And great for smaller dogs if Mill Creek is too intimidating. Hint: bring towels! The mature tree lines always provide plenty of shade for those hot summer months. Several foot bridges are available to cross over that small stream between the side and back fields while exploring, and you might even find the occasional old fashioned rope wood swing. A black hose with spray wand attachment is hanging by the house at the entrance/exit if you need to rinse you or your pet. Another green hose is available hanging on the opposite corner in the back of the house by the BACK garage door for your use -along with a water bowl. Feel free to pick yourself wildflowers if they are blooming (late Spring/Summer Varieties), or snack on some blackberries off the fence line if you happen to come while they are ripening (usually mid-June to mid-July).... Bug spray is always recommended spring through fall, Just in case! You can't have all this nature without all the nature. 😉 If the calendar shows the time slot you want is available then book it and it's yours! Be last minute, that's fine! Be spontaneous, that's great! No advanced notice required. (2 hour minimum cancellation required.) If your reservation is early or mid morning, consider to wear waterproof shoes. The dew on the grass will soak your feet! Multiple dog discounts really add up! All dogs after the first dog are 50% off the hourly rate! Bring your pack and/or their friends for a doggy play day! 👍🐾🐾 You are dedicated If you're still reading this far, and maybe you are considering your first visit?? If so, use promo code 'Chip' which is valid to get 5 dollars off your first visit only! 😉 Contact me with any questions and if you would prefer to meet and/or have a guide to walk the property the first time, if I am available, either or both my wife and I would be more than happy to accommodate that! Last, honest feedback and suggestions to improve our spot are very welcome and appreciated! And leaving positive reviews along with sharing pictures of your pet's visit enjoying the property are a host favorite, and will help our Sniffspot as well as others who haven't been here before! Thanks so much, Chip

Hazards

HOST NOTE

Its an old farm, it has everything, from thick grass, tree stumps, tree roots, uneven ground, vole tunnels, holes from dogs digging, and grub eating wildlife and occasional groundhog holes. Wear appropriate shoes! Mill Creek is a highlight of the property, and very accessible in the back but can be a hazard if there's been a lot of rainfall and the creek can get very high, fast and dangerous so assess the conditions first and be mindful of water safety. It's usually very low and calm and good fun. Other potential hazards in the creek could be debris or trash like broken glass, sharp metal, tangled fishing lines or fishing lures that may have washed down near the property as fishing up and down the creek is very common. Around the perimeter, authenticity abounds as you can find thorny wild blackberry bushes, wild rose bushes, poison ivy, stinging nettle, poison oak, thistle bushes, a feeder stream with small sink holes under tree roots, puddles, ditches, occasional fire ant hills, old farm wire fencing, ticks, mosquitoes, wasps, bees, and other biting bugs (hint: bug spray). I do try and keep things mowed and trimmed to a large degree but this is untamed farm land around the perimeter and in areas of vegetation so it helps to be aware and knowledgeable about identifying and avoiding these types of hazards. Even though I do mow and care for this spot, I also enjoy existing with the beauty of the untamed growth which allows a true farmland/woods/field/pasture experience. Experiencing so many amazing varieties of vegetation, we have a huge oak, snuggling up to a flowering dogwood, and a mighty old maple down by the creek living next to a mimosa. The wild flowers, trumpet vines, honeysuckle, wild lilac, wild roses, blackberries, queen anne's lace, clover, black eyed susan, just to name a few, for example, are all popping out through the spring/summer/fall seasons. Literally dozens of species exist all around on this property and it changes through the seasons, which attract birds, bees, and butterflies. We have a great blue heron that lives here, ducks, turtles, blue birds, and of course the mockingbirds singing across the fields wanting to be heard while chasing the red tailed hawks away. It's a true nature lovers paradise and you will be amazed at all the beauty right in front of you. If you don't know your plants, just don't touch them. There is plenty of imposters that could be harmful, especially if allergic, and our state has plenty of poison ivy, so identifying that is an essential skill to have with Tennessee living. I am constantly battling with it! Not only flowers, but Wildlife has been observed mostly when scary humans are not around such as deer, turtles, frogs, rabbits, wild turkey, red-tailed hawks, kestral falcons, herons, geese, ducks, groundhogs, mice, snakes, armadillo, moles, raccoon, opossum, and the rare coyote, and even more rare bobcat and fox. Are you scared yet? :-). No parking lots or strip malls here! It's actually quite peaceful, and much safer than driving. 😁 This spot has a water feature, make sure to review these guidelines for visiting spots with water before visiting: https://help.sniffspot.com/article/167-how-to-keep-your-dog-safe-around-pools-and-water

Hi, here you will find a piece of southeast Nashville's farm-land history that is buried in the burbs...great for both non-reactive and reactive dogs and their humans to spend some together time off-leash! I enjoy spending time clearing and caring for this land and so I hope you and your dog(s) will consider spending some time to come enjoy it too. We are proud to be the very first Sniffspot in Nashville and even all of middle Tennessee and are the 2nd SniffSpot in the entire state of Tennessee! Browse the listing, read the reviews and come enjoy 7+ acres that has a lot to offer in terms of park-like open space, sun, shade, water, adventure and variety for your pooch.

Green Acres!

Fully Fenced

3 acres

Welcome to our private farm! We live on site and will close our main gate once guests enter, ensuring the property is secure. Please inform us if there will be more than one car so I won't close the gate too soon. The pasture is fully fenced, partly with 4 board fencing, and partly with horse safe wire fencing along main road and wooden panels against neighboring property. Our current pasture is 3 acres with mainly open fields and a few trees and bushes. When it rains, there can be a small creek down by the road. The neighbor has a small dog that comes out on occasion, but there are panels on the fencing between our properties, so dogs won't be able to see through. We have a German Shepherd dog on site, but will keep her inside during guest appointments. To access the entrance, guests will need to drive past the main house, go to the right and up the hill towards the barnyard. Buildings in barnyard are not available for guests except for use of the hose, which is marked. Located in the upper barn breezeway ( concrete floor) to the left of the parking site. Hose available. Signs are provided to help guests find the hose area, park entry, and parking. Guests: please feel free to move the chairs as needed to stay in the shade or sun for your comfort!
