55Grace goes above and beyond. The property is clean, easy to access, and beautiful. A personal note on the gate makes it easy to know you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be. My pups had a blast. We will be back many more times in the futureGrace M.

55Our first Sniffspot adventure! Got trapped in I-5 traffic from hell (you know the usual car on fire etc.) coming up but it was worth it. What a glorious place...felt like the whole forest was ours. Nice wide pathways. So serene and beautiful and I felt safe. I got a little confused as to where the large red gate was but did find it. You first come to the cable gate then keep driving down until you see the Sniffspot Parking Sign which is right in front of the main large red gate. Bring mosquito spray. I will be back but next time I won't be driving North on I-5 around 5PM! Thank you for sharing your piece of heaven.Marcie E.

55A slice of heaven! 🙏
Easy to find fron main road. Parking sign posted for Sniff spot guests. Even had a "Welcome" sign with our names.
I booked 2 hours.... my pup was done in 45 minutes. He spent most of his time in the stream where he could cool off after running around and exploring. Fully fenced. No other dogs can be seen but did hear the neighbor dog barking.
Outhouse available... very clean with even toilet seat covers and light 👌
Plenty of shade and places to sit. Perfect for picnics.
Found a little treat for both myself and my pup when we returned to our car.
We will be back at least 3 times a month!
🌺Thank you Brian & Grace! See you soon 🫶🤙Marleina C.

Christina's Fully Fenced Yard For Dogs To Rent In Arlington | Sniffspot
55My dogs had a great time and the yard was the perfect size to play games of fetch.
I did hear some dogs, but it didn’t seem to bother my pups at all, and one of them is highly reactive.
Looking forward to visiting again. Jennifer L.

55Another lovely visit! If your pooches are fluffy, I would suggest being done by 10am. First portion sun-drenched, then lovely canopy of leaves with off shoots to explore. Be aware that there looks to be a wasp nest in low level trees opposite side of second bench. Good sniffs throughout! april W.

55Amazing nature spot to let dogs play, and Grace is a great host!! We hope to go back again! Secure complete perimeter fencing (one of my dogs checked...). Plenty of room to romp and sniff and play in the woods, almost completely shaded within the trees. Some of the trails are a little steep but plenty of flatter areas for older or less mobile dogs. My dogs enjoyed taking a dip in the water afterwards to cool off, and enjoyed playing in some mud on the banks (if your dogs like water, they may get dirty!).Katherine M.

55What an adventure! Great paths for us humans to keep up with the pups. The host met us to give us the rundown, being this was our first sniff spot trip. She was lovely with and amazing piece of property! They ran, sniffed, found mud, galluped through a creek… a bit of everything, including a nice few hills for us. Toni F.

55This was a lovely spot. I enjoyed all the signs and learning about all the various types of trees and forest creatures. I wish there were more trails off the main path, but they’re overgrown with nettles. I would be happy to go back sometime and help clear the side paths. My dog was SO HAPPY. I’ll be back. Jennifer G.
