55This was our first Sniffspot experience and it was 10/10!!! Very secluded, and well maintained area! I brought water, but with it being so hot out the extra water was greatly appreciated! We will definitely be back ☺️Samantha G.

55I can’t comment on the property itself as there was a complication with my reservation (entirely my fault) and I was unable to make my scheduled time. The owner was very accommodating and I look forward to scheduling another session in the very near future. Patrick A.

55What a blessing this place is. My high energy foster dog had the time of his life running non stop thru the meadows. For the first time, I think I finally tired him out. There were plenty of toys to play with, and he loved finding “surprise” balls as he ran thru the trails. We’ll be regular repeat visitors here.Kristin E.

55Our pups had a great time at their first Sniffspot. They loved the meadows and woods, and sunning themselves after they got tired running the well groomed trails. The owner kindly has plenty of fresh water, a water bowl and seating in a shady spot in the meadow. Thank you for sharing your space with us! Brenna C.

55Our first time using Sniff Spot was awesome! This property is beautiful and well kept. I would definitely go back here again. Quiet and peaceful. Lots of flowers and blue skies. Posie loved walking around, sniffing all of the sniffs undisturbed. Ellen P.

55Absolutely loved our visit! Super nice 10-acre space with places to sit and water. It’s only 30-min drive; so it’s super ideal. The trails are nicely maintained. The outer perimeter is fenced! Susanne J.

55To have 5 senior pups (and 1 younger pup) who as they’ve gotten older and like to explore and roam at their own pace without the stress of other dogs approaching or going up into their faces — this was heaven. Seeing them finally get to run freely with no anxiety is everything I could have hoped for + gotten to see them enjoy at this age. (11-12+)Tyler + Kasey R.

55Poncho had the best time! Plenty of room to stretch his legs, sniff, zoom, and chase balls. Gate wouldn’t hold a tiny guy like him in, but we were able to keep away from that area, and I always felt secure. Beautiful well-kept property. Thanks for opening it up to guests!Ashley C.

FAQ About Afton Dog Parks

Sniffspot private dog parks only allow one guest to book at a time and are not open to the public, which solves many of these issues.
