55Nice property not too far from me that I’d come back.
Big enough for the dogs to run around and check out smells.
Large water bowl and spigot near the guest house in the back area.
My dog enjoyed the smells from the neighboring yard of chickens and goats, the fence is not see through and mid waist on me which is perfect. There was one area where the dogs could see into the other yard but it’s not directly facing the goat/chicken area.
They have a lot of shade from the big trees, and a tire swing on one. A couple chairs in front of the guest house, but I sat on the fire pit and threw balls.
There’s a swimming pool completely fenced off.
It’s very secure! Marissa G.

55Dogs had a great time. Lots of room to run and sniff. When they came home they were tired and took a good nap. Always a sign of a good timePauline L.

55Absolutely beautiful spot. Nice clean yard. There was lots of water available. There were some toys in the yard for dogs to use. We did see the neighbors dog a few times but only very briefly and our dogs weren't too interested. Other wise very private. We really enjoyed it and are looking forward to visiting again.Max M.

55Very clean and spacious yard. Lots of trees for shade. The parking is nice because you can pull off of the street and they have a very large driveway. It was nice because my senior dog uses stairs to get in and out of the car so I actually was able to leave my car completely open and the stairs set up, without any concern about neighbors. I brought a sprinkler toy for the dogs and was able to hook it up with their hose. But my dogs are house dogs who don’t seem to know what to do being off leash and outside. LOL. I would definitely recommend this spot and would try again to show my dogs how to play. Lol.Christina W.

55Great shady grass area. Played lots of fetch and let them roam. Nice relaxing spot listening to the birds. The neighbor dog said hi by peeking over the fence but was gone within 30 seconds. Parking and gate entrance is very easy. We will be back!Jenny G.

55Such a lovely place! 100% fenced, clean, safe, parking right next to gate, and the grass was so soft for plenty of rolling in. Definitely big enough for chuck-it’s. Highly recommend! Dana W.

55It was so nice to see Zeus running full speed. He was able to return the ball thrown farther away. He had to rest in the shade a couple of times then wanted more. Nikki A B.

55Great convenient spot. My Doberman loved zooming around. Nice spot for parking, great layout so I could keep an eye on her. She's still a puppy so having a good fenced area and being able to keep an eye on her easily was a big bonus. A I.
