55Beautiful and well maintained property with lots of open space to run and a lovely grove of trees in the center to offer shade if needed. If your pup is drawn to water or mud there is a pond that offers lots of opportunity to get good and filthy, as ours did, but he had such a fun time doing it, that all you can do is laugh. We had a great visit and would love to go back again next time we're in the area. Laura T.

55I’m giving it 5-stars because the host put a lot of work into making this spot unique and fun. If you own two dum-dums that are undeterred by thick blackberry bushes and bloodlust for rabbits, you’ll want to heed the warnings in the description. My dog went through the gap right away and it became a rescue mission when she couldn’t figure out how to get back around the fence. Pond, open space and toy bucket were fun. Just don’t bring hunting dogs that work in tandem to do stupid stuff.Aly H.

55Such a great space for dogs and people! Big level open space for running and chasing balls. Shaded pond for cooling down with bench in the shade. Toys and snacks for dogs. Really nice sniff spot. Mud in the pond area but hose provided for rinsing off dogs. No fence along the back but blackberries mostly block access to the large pond on the other side. Quick response and good communication from host. Thank you!Joann H.

55This place is such a great find! An easy quick detour off of I-5. There is tons of room to run. We will need to come back when it’s a hot day because my dog will love dipping into one of the two ponds to cool off. Brielle H.

If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines.
