Pfafftown Barks and Rec.

Fully Fenced

3 acres

Welcome! 3.5 Acre Open Pasture. Right now its VERY basic. We are looking add on more fun attractions. There are two sections. One is completely fence in! You will access this area through the gate to the left of the "Enter Here" sign. *FOR ON LEASH ONLY* The other portion there is a fence but it serves as a property boundary . This fence would not a contain a dog who does not have recall. The wire is electric fence wire. The power is turned off to it. We have chickens. They will be enclosed and not a bother to you and your dog! more then likely you will hear our rooster. The coop is not inside the sniffspot. We have two dogs. They will be kept inside. They may bark at your arrival but you will not see them during your visit. There is an in-ground fence for them. But, we do not plan on ever having them out while you are visiting. Reach out with any questions!

Muddy creek 2 Acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Park In Clemmons

Partially Fenced

10 acres

Freshly fenced with open grass for running and playing. Also have some wooded area with taller grass and growth for exploring. Lots of shade trees also. Outside the fence is an additional 8+ acres to explore. If you wish to go down to the creek then only enter on far right side behind the fence. The path to the water is challenging as it is woodsy and steep. There is a knotted rope to help you get up a short bank from the water’s edge
