55My pup loved this spot. She is a sniffer and the yard has tons of little nooks and crannies to sniff around. Super quiet, easy parking, fresh water bowl, and a huge gorgeous tree. What more could you ask for?Danielle D.

55Decided to try a new sniff spot at the last minute and this one didn’t disappoint! My energetic girl loves it.
There is water for your furry friend and balls to throw around a hammock to sit in, it’s just the right amount of woodsy for us and enough space to run around. My girl loves to run up and down hills so the slope on the side was great for her!
It’s easy to find and enough privacy for my dog reactive dog, she’s a bit scared around other dogs.
We will be back again! Chrystal A.

55We have a tiny pup and there were a few spots we had to keep a close eye on in the fence but they said they would be improving the escape areas. Overall lots of sniffing to be done Tate & Cam B.

55It was a really nice yard for my dog to run around in and play fetch! There was a very small gap in the fence & under the entryway gate but my 30 lb terrier didn’t care / couldn’t fit! We had fun & will come back :)Brooke W.

55Wonderful host! Our dog loved her time here! We found the entrance to the yard from the alleyway. If you have small dogs, keep an eye on them as there are two spots that sneaky ones could potentially get out. We will definitely be bringing Winnie back for another visit :)Jordan T.

55Cute little yard, good amount of space to play fetch. The fence does have some gaps in it that a dog could slip through if they really tried but if you just keep an eye on your dog and they listen to you it’s nothing to worry about. Had a great time with our three dogs! Qwynn D.

55It's a great sniffspot for playing ball in. It's not huge, so you're not getting a far run, but if you have a puppy or reactive dog whose game of fetch normally involves a 30ft long lead, this is an improvement!! The fence is good, but a determined small dog may be able to squeeze through. There are some gaps. My friend's dog found out she could go under the porch. She had a blast doing it. She is anxious enough that she just popped under, then zoomed out. It didn't seem like there was too much that could hurt her. It is a quiet area, so the dogs could just play and have fun.

55It's truly a delightful place to spend an hour. The natural trails are perfect for a leisurely stroll, and it's a beautiful spot to unwind and spend time in the hammocks. It's a great place to let your dogs roam and explore. This is one of those places you can visit when you need a quick hour of exercise and relaxation. It's just the perfect spot.Tye F.

55Great space for our dogs to run. There is a nice wooded area in the back half of the property that makes a loop. Our dogs enjoyed running in circles and playing chase. Amber M.

How do I know if a small dog park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your furry friends.
