55I have 2 mini Aussies that love the water, and Lix was the perfect place for them (and me) to get to play around in the creek for a while. There was easy access to the creek, a tote at the entrance of essentials, and navigation arrows to help you find your way. We live in Saint Louis and have a hard time finding places for the dogs to play in the water, especially off-leash. It may be a bit of a trek, but we will definitely be back. 10/10 😊Jade B.

55Beautiful property. Mown trail that skirts woods and Lix Creek (?). We missed out on optional loop across creek by not reading host's personal note (so check the picnic table 1st!) but still very much appreciated. We will be back! Ruby & Gibson. Russ G.

55Best sniff spot yet! Well cut path with multiple creek access points. Our 1 year old half cattle dog had an absolute blast running around here. Quiet, secluded area, did see some deer. There were ticks but just make sure your dog is protected. Owner had bin with water, toys, and treats which is super sweet of them. Will definitely book again!Casey L.

55Hands down our new favorite Sniffspot! 100% worth the drive. The property is absolutely beautiful with a perfectly mowed walking trail. Endless areas for pups to play, run, sniff and explore. The entire trail is marked, along with all of the access points to the creek, which there are multiple along the trail. Most of the trail is flat except the very end, where there is a hill. The owners kindly provided a map, treats, water bowl and jug of water. Wouldn't change a thing! Highly recommend.Ilona B.

55So! Woof and I drove an hour and a half to get here and it was WELL worth it! The description of the property is accurate, simple to find and accessible for any car. Alexis was very responsive to all my inquiries and questions; even while I was there! There was a welcome note with a map on the back, the mowed trail is marked with arrows to follow and creek access locators! I believe the creek to be safe, it is a low slow flowing creek! A few deep swim holes Woofie found! You follow the mowed trail but on both sides there is plenty for the dogs to explore! Tall grasses, trees and woods that Woofie enjoyed! I do believe when you pull in you can see their residence a bit but it was very private and I felt safe. The sniffspot does have cool stuff for your dog; water, snackies and plenty of toys! Woof is a true wonderer and only wanted the adventure and snackies! I wore a good pair of hiking boots and brought bug spray just in case (I did not use any) with tall grass comes ticks (found a small amount on the ride home) but Woof is on prevention and a spray for protection!
Thank you so much Alexis for sharing your slice of heaven with Woofie and I!! We cannot wait to come back! Kaitlyn L.

FAQ About Warrenton Dog Parks
Are dog parks good for dogs?
It is important for dogs to have off leash exercise to sniff and run. But the free and open nature of public dog parks has drawbacks.
