55Lovely spot! Our dog Fang had a great time. Clear instructions on access.Roberta S.
55Daisy and my husband and I had another wonderful visit at Freedom Farm! Love the trails to explore and the beautiful open green space to enjoy. 🩷 Thank you!cat c.
55Very nice to visit Freedom farm. Entering winter. This place shows different face to enjoy . So beautiful and we feel so safe here. HIROKO T.
55Great spot! It was super wet due to lots of rain the previous day and some areas were pretty muddy, but it’s a wonderful place for the dogs to run and explore. We appreciated the box of toys, towels, and chairs, too!Jessica B.
55Shawna is an amazing host! From the moment of booking, we had very clear instructions on how to find the property, where to park, where to go, where the boundaries are, and where everything is. The videos and the map provided help us navigate the property. It was a wonderful experience for us humans. As for our dog Akela… I’ll let the photos do the talking. 😂 Shawna’s property is very well kept, lots to explore with short trails and a small creek. There are also many small surprises everywhere, sculptures, statues, and even a chandelier! It’s like a treasure hunt. We love it that it has an open area and some woodland with trees and shrubs. It’s perfect for dogs to sniff and play. Even though its unfenced there are enough natural barriers around to keep the dogs safe. As long as your dog has good recalls you don’t have to worry about them running into danger. It’s so kind of Shawna to open her amazing property for city dogs like ours to have a place to safely roam free. All of us came home so happy and tired (the dog!)Susie Y.
55This was our very first SniffSpot and we were beyond happy with our experience! Shawna provides a beautiful and clean property for dogs to explore and play, and is very friendly and easy to communicate with. Mia and I will absolutely be returning to Freedom Farm for more mud time! Taryn W.
55It was a beautiful spot with a huge green space for the dogs to run/play and a super fun creek that the dogs loved. We didn’t venture too far into the trails as our dogs were just happy running around in the main space! The written instructions and videos from Shawna were very accurate and helpful. Communication with Shawna before, during and after was great! Freedom Farm has tons of space, mud, water and sticks to keep your doggos busy and entertained! Kathryn U.
55Thanks for a great first sniffspot! Shawna was very thoughtful providing clear directions, toys, chairs, poo bags and even an umbrella! Lots of little trails, a creek and an open area in this sniffspot made an hour fly by. We also loved spotting all the different ornaments around the trails. Very fun.Amber M.
55Rusty had a great time at Freedom Farm today. There were a few mucky parts he splashed around in, but the space is large and cute and fairly private. We will definitely be back!Jody G.
55My pup had a blast. There is lots of space to run, and Montys' favorite thing to do is run through the forest and trails . Here, he got to do this. I think this was his favorite spotKim W.
