Hoosier's on the Ridge Private Dog Retreat, Brown County, IN

Please confirm date and time prior to reservation 😃 Hoosier’s on the ridge sits on 15 acres right next to Yellowwood State Forest! This land provides all terrain options for whatever your dog desires. You can stay close to your car in a field setting or walk deep into the valley to explore the creek bed on a hot day. I have built 4 campsites on the property (also for rent,) so there are 4 unique sitting spots, hammocks, tables, and fire pits. We have 2 golden retrievers (1M/1FM, both fixed) and a golden doodle (1m/fixed) who can either be put in the house during your visit or come socialize, whatever you prefer. We would be happy to accommodate large groups, dog social clubs, etc., just contact us. We hope to see you soon so that your dog may roam the hallowed ground of Brown County. -Hoosier’s on the Ridge
