55The area was huge with plenty of stuff for them to smell and pick all the sticks! Definitely should book extra time!
55Great space with woods and cleared areas. Easy access. Lots of room to run and explore!
55This is a fantastic sniffspot location! Plenty of tree coverage and tall plants for pups to sniff, as well as a clear grassy area to play fetch. Both of my dogs were tuckered out after an hour and were fully ready for a nap after 90 minutes. I'll be back to this location again! Only extra info to provide is that towards the back, there's a drainage area. The fence cannot fully cover it so a small dog could easily get under the fence and medium/large dogs could too with minimal effort. I'd recommend walking the perimeter to ensure you know where to keep an eye on your dogs while visiting. Otherwise, the area is quite secure.
55What a great spot! Boogie and I had a wonderful time. Will definitely come back πŸ’œ
55Great space, fully secure fence, easy parking. Only thing to add would be a reminder to bring water for your dogs.
55This place is getting better and better! With the weather cooling down, the denser forest areas are easier to navigate, and my dogs absolutely adore finding their way through the different grasses, jumping over logs, and chasing birds. Will try to come weekly while the weather holds!
55This spot is great! It's nice and big, has lots of different areas for the dogs to explore, it's easy to find and parking is accessible. The fence is secure and I did see the few spots where very small dogs could squeeze under, so definitely walk the perimeter beforehand to ensure your small dog(s) won't fit through. I did note that while walking it with my dogs, there were a lot of thorny plants growing, and the grass/ground cover is rather stiff. My elderly dog has very sensitive paws, so he experienced a few "flat tires." I would suggest some protective booties for dogs with sensitive paws. There isn't a hose there for drinking water, so definitely bring a bowl and some water. (I had a bowl and water in my car, so no biggy!) The space was nice and clean and I didn't see any rouge piles of dog poop, so it's very well maintained. I will definitely bring my dogs back!
55A fabulous environment for my dog. I am low vision and the security and fencing were grand! The pups had a great time sniffing, running and chasing balls. A really beautiful place.
55Fantastic spot for active dogs! Our two dogs had a blast exploring the vast, secure property, which features plenty of wooded areas to roam. The chain-link fencing provided peace of mind, and we appreciated the bin of toys, two chairs, and a picnic table. Just remember to bring your own water! The address led us straight to the entrance, making it easy to find and park.
55This enormous property is enclosed by a brand new fence. It’s one huge rectangle with a defined walking path around the perimeter and a few foot paths crisscrossing throughout. If you enjoy trail running, this would be a decent place to do so while the dogs play. There is a picnic table, chairs, trashcan, and a little box of dog toys. NOTE: BRING YOUR OWN WATER.
