Description

🌳🐾 Welcome to The Hidden Gem on Wildcat Creek—Dayton, Indiana’s best-kept doggy paradise! ****Don’t let the rugged approach fool you. Past the gate is an acre of pure freedom: shady napping spots, tall grass for zoomies, sticks galore, and Wildcat Creek itself—cool water, soft sand, smooth rocks, and the soothing sound of rushing water. ****We want you and your pup to feel right at home here. Bring a snack, sip on some cold lemonade, and hang out as long as you like. Feel free to walk the creek (just use caution—there’s no lifeguard on duty). And if you spot a special rock, shell, or the perfect stick? Take it with you as a keepsake—a little memory of your day at The Hidden Gem. ******Perfect for pups who love to splash, sniff, and explore—and for owners who want to unwind in nature’s secret hideaway. Come see it for yourself. Your dog will thank you. 🐾💦✨

Additional rules

🌿🐾 Welcome to the Creek Spot! Please read these friendly guidelines before you visit: ✅ 1. Enter through the Main Gate Please use the main gate at the entrance and walk straight down to the creek. ✅ 2. Secure the Second Gate You’ll come to a second gate on the way. Just unhook it to pass through—but please latch it back behind you. Our horses are escape artists who love to roam if given the chance! ✅ 3. Parking You’re welcome to park on the left side of the street closer to the property. Just please leave enough room—cars do need to pass through from time to time. ✅ 4. Watch the Weather & Creek Conditions If it’s been raining, please check the weather and creek levels before you visit. The water can rise quickly and the current can get dangerous. Swimming is at your own risk—there’s no one on site to help. ✅ 5. Explore & Take Treasures Feel free to collect shells, rocks, or other creek treasures—no worries at all! ✅ 6. Bring Swim Shoes On nice days when the water is low, you and your pup can walk right through the creek. Don’t forget your swim shoes for easy exploring!

We are located in the center of Flora Indiana, snuggled in between two friendly houses and neighbors that have dogs that are friendly. We also have cats inside and a big bay window they will be watching you out of haha! It’s usually quiet around but someone you have your average traffic noise. We don't scoop our dogs poop usually so there is some land mines here and there, sorry!

Urban Farm 5 Acre, I-65 Rest Stop

Unfenced

5 acres

This 5+ acre parcel is full of fallow field fun for you and your pets! This farm is also a certified wildlife habitat, so it's great for birding if you enjoy that! Humans can stay on the mowed pathways while the dogs roam the open fields. Active farming activities including beehives, vegetable growing areas and bramble patch! While the area is only partially fenced, a large ditch to the south, creek to the north, and natural wooded boundaries define the edges of the parcel. Recommended for dogs on leash or under good voice control as a nearby road is quite busy. Feel free to view the growing areas and honeybee activity, but please do not allow dogs to enter or dig in active crop areas nor molest the beehive located in the far SW corner of the property. We are glad you've chosen to visit us at KC Sunshine Farm Indy!
