Hi! I’m an animal and nature lover excited to share our 40 acre paradise with others wanting to experience nature with their pets in a safe environment free of larger wildlife. I currently have 4 rescue horses, 3 rescue cats, and our black shepherd cross Ozzie who is lucky enough to walk off leash on the property 3 times a day.

***IMPORTANT: all prices listed are in USD and guests will be charged in USD*** Welcome! This is a private rental, when you book you are the only one in the space. We have three areas for you to enjoy, all are fully fenced and are included in the rental price. We have a fully fenced acre of woods with a trail that goes through to explore. It is accessed through the gate in the backyard. We also have a front yard and deep backyard, great for running, fetch and recall training. The yard is 1.5 acres and also fully fenced. During the summer you have access to two seating areas including a picnic table, gazebo for shade (seasonally) a 30 foot tether is also available if you would like to have your dog stay beside you while you relax. During the winter, paths are plowed in both yards and in the woods within 3-5 hours of a significant snowfall. Hard packed snow and mild weather can create icy sections on the property, we put down sand and pet safe ice melt on the trails to help. Feel free to contact us for trail conditions before booking. All dog breeds welcome, reactive dogs welcome.
