55Literally my favorite spot. The only reason I don’t come here even more regularly than I already do is because they only allow up to 5 dogs, and I usually have at least 6. Ashtyn B.

55This was a great place to explore. We covered all three trails in an hour and then spent the next hour traveling them again. There were a lot of leaves covering the trails, which made them slippery, and it was all on an incline. Definitely bring shoes that have traction and can get muddy. Maddie S.

55Great walk in the woods; both my dog and I enjoyed walking the hilly well maintained trails. If your dog is only interested in chasing their ball, this lovely wooded/hilly spot might not be their favorite.Cheryl M.

55We had a great time! The spot is gorgeous, like in the photos and Luke was really helpful with some questions I had about the reservation. You can tell he cares about everybody having a great experience on his property. We will definitely be back when we're in this part of town again.Paulina T.

55This was a really great spot! Easy to find, and I loved that they have a map when you park, and clearly marked boundaries, to make navigating their property easy! The trails take you into the woods and provided so much great sniffing and exploring for our dogs. It was a rainy day (perfect if you love foggy wet forest vibes) and it was very muddy (as you’d expect) so make sure to wear appropriate shoes! While it’s not fenced, it felt really safe to let our dogs off leash (not bolters, just still working on reliable recall) because there was nowhere dangerous for them to go! We really enjoyed ourselves, and dogs had a blast! I will definitely be back! Christina P.

55Very nice spot with all trails well marked. The creek was a little daunting for our big shepherd with all the recent rainfall but he seemed to enjoy it nonetheless. Kirk C.

55My 2 year old pit loves to run around here and explore all of the smells! Plenty of hills to run your pup tired. A little muddy in places, but what else would you expect in a PNW forest in the wintertime. Eric P.

55We really enjoyed this spot! I was happy to see that everything was marked very clearly and the paths were obvious! An hour gave us enough time to explore two of the paths with stops to play and sniff around. I will say that it can be VERY SLIPPERY in some spots but that didn’t detract from the amount of fun my dog had! I did hear music and some construction type noises but my dog is deaf so of course it didn’t bother him. Overall, very good spot!Jessica O.

55What a great visit. My chubby self got a great workout. Make sure in winter you wear good sho3s. Probably want hikers. I did slide down in a couple spots but we had so much fun. My boys loved the trails and raced back and forth. This was our first unfenced one, but 0 issues as lots of natural boundaries. Can't wait to come back . Would love to see this in spring and summer as well. Dina C.
