This is a great spot. We did see some hawks circling so maybe not a great option for smaller dogs but our pup had an amazing time and the host was very kind to us and allowed us to reschedule after something came up last minute. I highly recommend 👌

this was our very first time using sniffspot! we had a great time! there was water and a little pool to use which my dogs loved on this super hot day! so many toys to play fetch with and one of my pups loved the agility! we did have a run in with the property pup, which my dogs are not always the best at meeting new dogs so that was a littke stressful but the resident dog got the picture pretty fast and went back to the house. it was super wasy to find and we will be back for sure!

Nice open pasture (fenced) for the pups. There were a few toys (our dogs don’t yet know what to do with them, so we didn’t bring any, and having some to try were appreciated) and we hung out for an hour. Our dogs weren’t sure what to do in the pasture and mostly sniffed around and wondered why we kept flinging toys and WE were running after them. They watched us. :) It is great to have an off-leash place for them! The picnic table was a nice addition for a place to sit down. An extra plus some day would be some shade. We’d return to this location.

We loved this huge, clean, and securely fenced area. The host provides lots of toys. There is a also fresh water available. My dog had the time of his life playing with the hosts dog. If you don't want any dogs around then book ahead of time so she has time to see the message. We can't wait to go back!

Probably not a good spot if your pup is reactive to other dogs. Based on previous reviews we messaged the owner to ensure no surprise dog visits. We didn’t get a response, but went ahead and booked anyway, knowing to be careful upon arrival. The resident dog joined us. I was super nervous about it, but it went ok. Their dog seems really sweet. They provide fresh water, a place to sit and toys.

they had toys, water station, picnic tables and lots of fun obstacles and features to play in or through. great signage to guide you to the reserved area. grass was clean and well kept.

My dog loved this place. Big enough for endless zoomies! Small dogs might be able to slip thru the gate. I blocked it with the shovel and it was no problem.

The fenced area was perfect for our reactive dogs to run and run and run. It was big enough to use a chuck it, and I think next time we'll plan a picnic and bring it with us if the weather is good! We have small dogs, and there are some gaps in the fence so we needed to be a little ingenious with our existing resources to indicate to them that they weren't supposed to go in there. But otherwise it was a beautiful experience on a beautiful day. Thank you!

This was our first Sniffspot visit, and it was perfect. We had a couple distractions, but it was a working opportunity. The owners dog wanted to come say hi, but our pup is not to keen on strangers yet, work in progress, hopefully one day they can play together. We will definitely be back to let our pup burn some energy. 😁

One of my dogs is socially inept when dealing with too many other dogs. The other doesn't get along with dominant males. I avoid taking them to dog parks because it can get dicey. This field is perfect for them. Wide open and completely fenced off. No other dogs, animals, or people to distract or agitate them. I highly recommend it. There are signs that clearly mark where the playfield is. There are no gaps or openings in the fence for them to escape through. It's all grass and slightly sloped. No holes. Very clean. Not muddy. There were a couple of tennis balls and chew toys available, which I put on the outside of the fence during my visit because I have a toy destroyer. A bucket with water is also available. As well as a small table and a pair of chairs. I did not see a poop scooper, but I came prepared with my own bags for cleanup and packed them out with me. There is a water trough in the corner as well, which one of my dog sampled. It's a beautiful area. Like another reviewer mentioned, your navigator will tell you you've arrived as soon as you turn onto the road. Keep going to the bend. Addresses are clearly marked. It was easy to find. Plenty of space to park. Beautiful fields. I'll definitely be back. Well worth it. Tired dogs are happy dogs

We love coming to this sniff spot when we are on road trips. We would visit more often, but we live 2 hours away. This sniff spot is safe, well fenced, and without holes or other things my little guy could get hurt by while whizzing by me at 500 miles an hour! That is, of course, when he's not too busy sniffing. This is a great open space to play fetch, work on training, or just to take in the day.

First time for our yellow lab puppy off leash and it couldn’t have been a more perfect day. This fenced area gave her plenty of room to run, and boy can she run! There was a cute little table near the gate with water, bags, toys and a couple of chairs for those of us who wore out before the puppy. Its a half an hour away for us but well worth it, well kept, clean and lots of room. We will be back, thanks so much.

Stephanie and Chris are great hosts. Our second trip to doggie playground and what fun. Our Tasha girl even had a little play time with Axel, their new puppy.

Highly recommend this spot! Had a little trouble finding the gravel driveway leading to the sniffspot and had to turn around. Other than that, the area is exactly as stated. If your looking for a spot for a reactive dog, this is it!! We will definitely be back!

We had a great time, thank you so much. It was a very hot day so we couldn't stay the full hour. I would love to bring them back on a cooler day. They got too hot too fast! But a lovely field for my dogs to play in!

This space was awesome for our dog-reactive pup. She had a great time racing around the fenced in area, which was large and very private. Clean, well maintained, and safe, highly recommended! Something to note: the gates that open into the area have a bit of clearance below, so determined dogs (like ours) might be able to slink their way beneath the gate and out of the fenced area. Luckily the surrounding area is woods/more field, so no harm done. We'll definitely visit again!

As always this is our favorite Sniffspot. Our Tasha even got to play with Axel yesterday and she loved it. Shocking to see how much he has grown but a beautiful and friendly puppy. The hosts are great and keep everything in great shape. Starting to hope we get a little snow this winter so we can see Tasha run in it for the first time.

Such a great SniffSpot! A big open fenced space where my deaf dog could zoom to his heart’s content. The one issue was that apparently the app double books? We booked this place for the exact same time that another couple booked! So we had to wait and only got 30 minutes at the spot. Not necessarily the host’s fault though...maybe a bug with this app?

55This SniffSpot was so fun! We went when it had snowed about a foot or so and my Saint Berdoodle and Toy Poodle absolutely loved it!! Although the host took awhile to respond to messages compared to other hosts I've communicated with, Stephanie was very kind and created an absolutely warm atmosphere. When we got there, the SniffSpot sign had twisted with the wind and we went down the wrong path and got stuck in the snow (we went on a minivan) and had to chain up to get back on track. The area is super easy to access if you just follow the sign (when it isn't twisted lol) and when everything isn't snow covered. We walked down to the SniffSpot area as we were afraid we'd get stuck again. Other than the host letting us know which area was the SniffSpot there was no human or dog in sight, which was so great for my Reactive dog. We had a bit of a miscommunication with the host when we were there. There were many fenced and were wondering if we were permitted to enter the other areas. She responded with "Some of gates are not all closed!" We totally misinterpreted that as the gates (or "doors" of areas being locked or not). It meant that some areas weren't fenced haha. So our dog ran out into the woods and came back. Gave us a scare, but the Saint Berdoodle always goes to another HUGE SniffSpot with us and she knows how to deal with woods. She just explores by going out and circling back to us. That whole experience was totally on US not on the host :) All in all, we had a BLAST in the snow!!! Thank you Stephanie!Yuki -.

I've already left a review, but Sniffspot keeps asking for another one. I'm not trying to stuff the ballot box, so to speak. The field is great for my reactive dogs. There's a garbage can to leave your cleanup bags, which I really appreciate. The picnic table is also a nice addition so I have a place to set my stuff down. I'm really thankful to have this options for my dogs.
