Our favorite place so far, the place have different features, and our highly active dog was so happy running, climbing and sniffing! The place is very clean and well maintained and the owners were very helpful and attentive. Very recommended

Absolutely the best one I’ve been to. The owners took extra care to make it special with new toys and water bottles and all the necessities for my pup! It was also a beautiful space to relax for an hour. Will be back

This place is beautiful. It’s nice and secluded making it a wonderful place to relax and play with your dog. I’m always paranoid about there being gaps or places not being fully enclosed (the host reassured me like 3 times after me consistently asking lol) Rest assured that it is. The host was very kind and responded to any questions I had quickly. They have a box with water bottles, toys and poop bags for your furry friends. I will definitely be back !

My pups loved Three Penny! There were many things to smell and places to explore. It’s completely fenced and without loud noises… just the sounds of nature. The particularly loved the little creek that runs through the property. The directions to access Three Penny were easy to follow and all the supplies were marked and easy to find. We will definitely go back to Three Penny!

I love coming here! Best spot I’ve been to, will continue to come. My dog loves it. Fully fenced in & toys, poop bags, and water provided. The host always checks in with me beforehand which is appreciated :) Last time I brought Levi with some Of his buddies and all four dogs loved it, plenty of space for them to play!

Absolutely love this sniff spot. The host is quick to respond to messages and questions, and was flexible with me. I realized I had booked a time when it would be raining and she worked with me to be able to take my dog right before the rain came in. Will continue to come, best Sniffspot. My dog cannot get enough of this place.

We loved this sniffspot!! Tina is a great host! The sniffspot was clean and well kept! It's the front of the yard so just be aware that you might be able to see/hear neighborhood dogs walking past the sniffspot. There's enough space to move your dogs away from the front fencing if needed and it's very secure! We can't wait to be back!!

This is a nice spot for a game of fetch! There are some big rocks on the property, and those helped me train my dog to "find it" when a toy disappeared between the rocks! The provision of toys, poop bags, and water was appreciated by me and my shepherd. We're planning to return soon!

Vickie C.

Lovely spot with shade, water and varied terrain. My dogs loved running around and getting completely muddy in the creek. Directions were easy to follow and parking was also easy.

Allison J.

We loved our visit! Great yard with lots of room to play and places to explore. Very easy access and amenities were as expected. We brought two big dogs and there was plenty of water provided. We can’t wait to come back!

The yard has plenty of room for my German shepherd to run and explore! He also love the rubber chicken that he found in the bin that was provided : )

Maria J.

I brought my boxer and her friend for a plate day here and they both loved it! The place was fully fenced and they provided toys to play with it. The creek is mostly dried now so there’s plenty of mud, so as long as you don’t mind a dirty dog, this place is great.

I was able to pick out some flowers right before Mother’s Day (my mom loves all these weeds haha) the host is keeping up with maintenance with the yard which is much appreciated with all the weeds growing out. This is Our favorite spot must visit if considering ! 10/10

Such a great spot! My boy had a blast sniffing around, jumping on the rocks, and walking through the creek. I thought it was so helpful that they had everything we could have needed in the box including a great selection of toys. We had a blast!

July 2023

This is one of my favorite spots for dogs. There’s plenty of space for them to explore and it’s always well kept. There is one spot where the fence is a little bent so my dog got out. It looks like the owners tried to cover it with rocks but unfortunately my dog wiggled his way out. Other than that small obstacle I went through, my dog and his 2 cousins had a great time.

Phoebe N.

This spot was great! We visited with my foster dog that is very wary of other dogs and people so we needed a more private space and this worked perfectly. I plan to come back with my dog!

Lisa B.

This is a beautiful spot. Both of our dogs had a wonderful time exploring this Sniffspot! Everything was organized and easy to access. I think that this is a wonderful place for our dogs to exercise and get some mental stimulation as well.

Tracy H.

April 2023

Another great time was had at Three Penny. I love the rocks there. It's perfect to let the dogs explore in there. Although I imagine it's probably housing a lot of lost balls. Anyways, the hosts are so pleasant to communicate with. Everything positive, nothing negative about this place. It's my new favorite Sniffspot!
