55The feeling of having so much space to explore in a safe way, is absolutely precious. One of my favorite spots!
55What a wonderful experience. Our first time we were greeted at the entrance and immediately felt welcome. The map was super helpful and we could have gone for hours. Booked an hour, will probably do 1.5 or 2 next time to really stretch our legs.
55This was my first time at George’s park and not my last. I was a beautiful forest and so relaxing to know that there were no dogs coming around the corner. George is a great host, He provides a map and even a container to drop off your poo bags
55Always the best spot !
55George was waiting for me at the entrance to the property to show me where to park, and provided me with a map of his property. He is very nice! He did tell me that there is a neighbour who often walks the trails, so I kept my human reactive boy on leash. We ran into her about 20 mins in and she is also lovely and understanding of being barked at. If you have a human reactive dog I would keep this in mind! The trails throughout the property were easy to follow and my dogs liked the stream to play in. We will definitely be back!
55Luna and I had the best time visiting this sniff spot again! She is one tired pup after spending an hour hiking/swimming here.
55Wonderful remote site
55Very peaceful, safe and friendly environment for dogs. With 3 dogs at different activity levels, it made it easy + fun. Will definitely go again and explore more.
55This was our second weekend in a row to George’s place and it is just amazing. We explored lots of new smaller trails this time- along the creek was the favourite. Our 6 year old loved it just as much as our dog so it’s an awesome place to get the whole family out for a walk without worrying about our reactive dog. We will be back!
55George’s nature park is a wonderful place to take our dogs on long lines and safely practice recall. George was so kind to come and meet us and give us a map and a lay of the land since it was our first visit. There were extensive trails to walk and a beautiful creek for the dogs to splash and drink. It was stress free knowing we wouldn’t run into any other dogs, as ours can be reactive. We are so fortunate to have George’s nearby and are already planning our next visit. George, thanks for all the work you’ d put in to make this beautiful private nature park and for sharing it with the larger community!
