55This spot is truly spectacular! Not only is it incredibly beautiful (and peaceful to sit by the running water), but it has so much to offer for dogs who love to adventure. Would absolutely recommend this spot to anyone. Sawyer W.

55Very diverse and exciting backyard for my pups to explore; one of my dogs is an absolute sniffing and exploring fiend and he had the best time! My other dog is a sprinter and there was tons of space for him to run. They both had the time of their lives! We will be back! Be sure to bring some towels to wipe your pups down afterwards with the creek and the mud around the creek. :)Amy L.

55Oh, to have a yard like this one… plenty of space and just beautiful. There are two levels to the property and right now, the lower level is pretty muddy and mushy, but there’s still tons of room on the upper level and it is completely dry. The lower level is still very usable, but just wear the right shoes. My dog loved the creek and it’s at a great height for paw cleaning. The property is very clean and well-maintained. There are neighboring properties visible through the chain link fence, but I didn’t see or hear any other dogs or people. We had a great time and got some good exercise walking between the two levels and tossing a ball around. We’ve put this one on our favorites.Corey C.

55Definitely muddy, so beware if you don't want to be so. But definitely big enough for my border collie, and great for a play date with dogs who love water!Stephanie L.

55My dog loves playing in water and this spot was perfect for him. The creek was flowing today so he would let the ball go and then try to get it as it flowed down the creek. Beautiful, quiet spot with a hill to climb which was great for a little extra cardio for him. Even if you didn't want to climb the hill, there is ample space to play.Tanya K.

55This spot was perfect for a sunny day! It was very private and the creek was just deep enough for my two dogs to splash around. There are some muddy spots so bring old shoes or rain boots and ofc towels for your dog. My dogs had a great time and we will be back. Alyssa T.

55Daniel’s park was exactly what our two dogs needed on a warm Sunday afternoon. Lower level gets plenty of sun, upper level gets plenty of shade. The creek was a lovely feature, as were the shady trails. The lower level was a bit muddy in spots (to be expected) so wear the right shoes and bring towels for your puppers paws. Ben H.

55This place is absolutely wonderful!!! I would highly recommend. It has everything a dog needs to leave tired and happy. The creek, the huge area for them to run, the little walk up to the top part with more room to romp and sniff. Truly a 10/10. I will be back!Jessika S.
