55This is a lovely and spacious area. It was a rainy Oregon day, but that didn’t stop the fun! Moose had a ball running around, sniffing, playing fetch, and, of course, rolling in mud! 😆 Highly recommend this spot.Krista H.

55Great. Big. Yard.
We have a spastic, leggy mutt that needs to run and there was ample space to do that. Quiet cul-de-sac in already quiet neighborhood. Clean with all amenities as advertised. Just make sure to bring water for your pooch and yourself, if you're into that kind of thing.Evan R.

55We loved the space and trees and while it was winter it wasn’t muddy.
The backyard has a few places for the humans to sit and a number of fetch toys for dogs that love that. We will be back!Margaret M.

55My giant schnauzer Tango and Ginger felt right at home. Your big backyard is dog and human friendly. I loved the tall trees. We hope to come back. It was just what they needed instead of a walk since it is getting dark sooner. Cecilia V.

55My terrier mix loved the diversity of this backyard. She was able to “hunt” through the wooded area and the lawn was large enough for fetch! We’ll definitely be coming back! Kristen K.

55Audra is a wonderful host, and her spot is Teddy's favorite in town. The space is clean, well kept, and the 6ft + solid wooden fence makes him feel safe. It's the perfect environment with a generous flat open area and strand of trees to sniff! Also, Audra has been a wonderful person to work with! We're grateful that she's made her spot available for us! Aislyn M.

55My pup & I loved this spot! The yard is big & park-like. I have 99# GSD. He was able to go into a full run in this yard & get some good leg extension :-D. If we’re ever in Beaverton for an extended stay again, we’d definitely come back here.JOSIE L.

55Perfect doesn't begin to describe Tree Haven. A wonderfully big backyard completely secured with top quality fencing, big trees, great dog toys, foot/water bowls, private entrance, plenty of seating for dog parents and much much more. Communication with the homeowner, Audra, was timely and thorough. My Boston Terrier had the time of her life exploring the huge yard, playing fetch and sniffing spots :) We'll definitely be back.
