Location

Amherst, Virginia

Description

This is a beautiful spot for dogs. There is a quiet road running along one edge of the property, but the woods around the property are the real draw. Lots of natural space to explore. When it rains, there is a stream that runs through. There are many paths cut through the woods for your dog to explore. The borders of the property are well marked by orange ribbons except for the road frontage. .

Hazards

Some spots are sometimes muddy, so watch your step. The trails are clear, but you and your dog are welcome to go off the path into the woods. Vines, roots, and other walking hazards may be present. The property inclines gently towards an intermittent creek that runs along the middle of the property.

Bear's Creek 13 Acre Unfenced Private Dog Park In Arrington

Unfenced

13 acres

Beautiful isolated 13 acre spot in the country. There is a path through the woods to an area that has springs, a stream and a watershed. Moving on down the 1/4 mile driveway passed the house is a path down to the Tye River that has a nice size riverbank (beach) for romping and water splashing. Dogs who can swim can venture out onto the rocks to explore the river. (Low tide) Those who want to exercise can hike down/up the stream climbing big rocks and other obstacles. This is a highly wooded area with lots to explore “off path”, so bring your bug spray. This is heaven for dogs and for those who prefer a challenging exploration vs a standard field or yard to explore. The walk to the stream/springs/watershed is an easier walk. The river walk while there is a trail, it’s pretty steep, rocks to trip on and a good workout to get back up. Come join us at Bear’s Creek for an adventure your dog will thank you for! Rules for the river: Low tide, all are welcome. High tide, swimmers only or dogs with excellent recall. Raging River, closed to all. If your most interested in the river and you know we have had a lot of rain you can message me prior to booking for river status. If you don’t message me and the river is closed you will receive a notification.
