Open field for your dog to run. NOTE: CELL SERVICE is unreliable, texting a bit better. GPS is unreliable as well. Before your first visit, you should get an auto-message 2 hours before your reservation with turn by turn directions. Now on to the good info. The primary area is about 1 1/2 acres. I use it for dog sports such as Toss and Fetch (disc). It is ideal for throwing a ball, a disc, or just letting your dog run. There is a shed in this area that has chairs, toys, etc. for guests. There is an agility field, available by special permission only, for those with prior agility experience. See extras.

We are located on 10 wooded acres surrounded by adjacent forest. We have a small farm pond area with a picnic shelter. There are lots of woods, a creek and lots of grassy area to run around in. We also have a fenced garden, a fenced chicken run and a fenced yard for our dog that we ask Sniffspotters to stay out of the fenced areas. Additionally, we do have campsites, a treehouse and a bus that has been retrofitted as a camper. We will only accept reservations. When we have campers here, Sniffspotters will be required to stay at the creek or near the pond. There is plenty of room for roaming but owners need to be vigilantly attentive to their dogs. When we do not have campers, Sniffspotters will be free to roam anywhere on the property.

Boonsboro area, I have a large fence where a dog can stay and play outside, the owner’s dog needs to bring their treats for his dog . I provide them water and some toys. The days where the fence is open is Monday to Friday from 8:00 am to 5:30 pm in winter, and Summer from 8:00 am to 7::00 pm. Saturday it is open from 9 to 1:00 pm The dog needs to be vaccinated and healthy. I require a copy also of that. I have a German Shepard dog 65 pounds and sometimes they can play together if the get alone and if the guest wanted. Sometimes could be another dogs to play with. The guest dog needs to be trained. The human guest will have chairs and water and some warn blankets for winter. Owner needs to pick up the waist of their dogs and throwing in the trash cans that I provide. Water is available for dogs.

Roughly 7 acres of open field with great views for your dogs to roam and play. The outskirts of the field are marked with livestock fence and flags to better see the boundaries. Fresh Water for your dogs is also provided along with toys for them to enjoy and a sitting area for the owners to relax and enjoy the views and watch their pups play.

This is the site of a forming intentional community. We are making it livable one step at a time. We bought the land cleared and in the meantime, use our 200+ acres to host hip camp, make bike trails and kayak out in areas. Attractions: Enter into one of the main parking areas by the house or keep driving! 1/2 mile down the road is another parking area. Keep going on that road and you’ll see a barn. Then, if you eventually curve to the right as you go down hill you might be able to figure out how to get to the big stream. The stream is sandy creek and that leads to the Banister river, which leads to the Dan. In about the middle of that main stretch, there is a road to the left that will bring you to a pond. I take my foxhound dog here while we hike the trails and work on the land. I found her on the side of the highway and found the owner but he didn’t want her back. I was going through a hard time. I did not intend on getting a dog, let alone a former hunting dog with such active needs! She had a lot of issues to figure out. We are both independent creatures which in the beginning was a source of trouble but now is a source of understanding. This land has been a blessing in us finding our balance. I can’t take her most places and let her off leash because her breed habit is to wander. She needs exercise. She has a need to run. She is so happy when we come here. She knows it means freedom. If it wasn’t for places like this, I would have a very frustrated pup! This place has helped us love each other. I hope you can experience the same!

Our property is 25 acres of country beneath Tinker Cliffs. The roadside is approximately 5 acres and is the home place and 20 acres is wooded trails and a Little Catawba Creek. There is a beach area with a swimming hole for dogs and shallower rock ripple areas for romping around. The area does have wild animals but that is to be expected. Please be considerate of property lines and keep dogs on leash if they are not trained to stay near. Dogs that will stay near can be off leash and have freedom to run but please know that your dog will see wild animals such as deer that may entice them to chase. There is easy parking located at a safe distance from the road (approximately 130 yards). Please call ahead for initial tour of trails. Close toe shoes with tread are recommended. Trails can be slippery in a few spots near the natural spring. Trails are mowed and mostly shaded. Hats are also recommended although ticks are not bad. Access will be restricted during hunting season.

Welcome! I have a large open field that gives dogs plenty of space to run and play! There is no fencing in the front field, but we do have a small backyard that is fully fenced that you are welcome to use! We are less than a mile from Rockbridge Vineyards and very close to the exit for I-81, a great stop while traveling or after a trip to the vineyard!
