Huge, fenced yard with plenty of room to run, play, and potty. I have dogs myself but they will always be inside so you may hear them barking but that is it. I have no neighbors to the right or behind my yard so its almost 100% private. The grass is cut every other Friday, so depending on the week you visit, grass may be a bit longer.
