55Absolutely AWESOME! Excellent communication with the owners with clear and easy-to-follow instructions on access. Our dog Toast had a fantastic time playing in the expansive open meadow. The fencing is in very good condition and safely surrounds the area. We will be back for sure! Roland B.

55Lovely spot and easy instructions to gate. My small dogs really enjoyed running/hopping through the tall grass. Plenty of shaded area for dogs and humans too (80° weather 😅). Only wish the bench was in the shade too but no problem, the first treehouse in the shade was the perfect spot to watch the dogs. Quiet place, cannot hear or see other animals or people. ❤️Miriam R.

55Host reached out to clarify directions which we greatly appreciated! Most importantly, my two reactive dogs got space to be themselves, romp, run, play, and sniff! Its so hard finding safe places for them where we won’t be stressed too, and this was fun for us too! Eliza D.

55Booked an early morning slot today. The pasture was lightly damp with morning dew but it felt wonderful and cooling with all the heat we’ve had. My dog pranced around like a deer and sniffed everything all over. The pasture in the morning was like a new experience for her, with sunlight poking through the trees and birds chirping their morning songs. Absolutely love this spot! Emily Y.

55This area is great for larger dogs! Although my small dog still loved it, but she did have some issues navigating the uneven terrain and tall grass and blackberry bushes. Lol. As did I! We all got a work out! So many smells for them to explore. My larger dog was in high heaven! I burned 200 calories chasing them around and throwing the ball. Gorgeous property! Jackie M.
