Hazards

HOST NOTE

The property is an active small hobby farm. The space has a hay rack, a pergola area and a black wooden structure ("spider") that the dogs can run around. There is potential for wildlife to be passing through the property at any time. The spot is approximately 100’ from the roadway so while not common, there is a possibility of bicyclists passing by. Please note: during winter months, the grounds may be muddy and obstacle equipment may vary throughout the year

Partially Fenced

Hi everyone! I have added a small blue plastic baby pool by the barn! Or some of our visitors, it might be more like a giant water bowl lol 😆 ---there are no other animals on site anywhere right now I have a lot of the pasture mowed from barn to barn and around the Willow tree! You can bring chairs, set a fire in the huge fire pit (bring wood and fire starter) also welcome to back your pick up into the area and hang out / sunset views for days here! * Short grass / tall grass areas / hill in the very back * Fenced but CATTLE fencing so great for larger dogs & dogs with GOOD recall * Wear your cowboy boots and explore the property! * Farm area is separate from our immediate yard up by our house so you have full privacy. * Anyone is more than welcome to use the yard around the house, just give me a heads up so we have it set for you 😊 this area is best for small dogs or runners and track stars, lol fully fenced!
