55This was a great spot for our pups! There is alot of space to explore under a shady canopy of trees. We spent our time walking around the property and sitting by the river. Two kayakers passed by, which was a great training opportunity for our reactive (soon to be best good girl). We loved how close it was to the Pisgah Ranger District. It would be a great spot to take your dogs to burn off some energy before hitting the trails! Alex & Shelbi H.

55Lots of private land for our crazy Aussies to let off some steam. Great beach area for swims and plenty of room for frisbees! We look forward to our next visit. Megan J.

55We had a blast on this large property. Plenty of trees, shade, sun, open areas, river, and beach. The beach was quite muddy, however it has been raining every day and even rained prior to us arriving that afternoon. I will definitely go back.Hunter L. We had a blast on this large property.

55Great open space for sprints and obstacle challenges. Maple got to cool off in the river after splashing around in the mud chasing butterflies. Loved this space!Christin G.

55Wide open space on the river, with a ton of shade. Bring your own chairs if you want to lounge. Great spot. Brandi X. Wide open space on the river, with a ton of shade. Bring your own chairs if you want to lounge. Great spot.
55This was a great place. Our doggie went for a swim, had a picnic, and was able to run free without worries. Thankful for this spot. Michele H. This was a great place. Our doggie went for a swim, had a picnic, and was able to run free without worries. Thankful for this spot.
55Love this spot! Even with the flooding the owner took care of the land so it’s level again. Highly recommend this spot. The Only downside is that It can be buggy. Sara W. Love this spot!

55Excellent place for dogs to run, play in the water, chase the ball, etc. Looks like there was a lot of damage from Helene, but it’s been cleaned up pretty well. I imagine that it was a gorgeous spot before Mother Nature rearranged it. Please pay attention to David’s advice about the directions: Applemaps won’t get you there. Marnie Z.

55It is spacious with alot of trees so it's easy to see your dog. The French broad borders one side so he can't get away. A great spot with trails and diverse terrain. Well be going back!Cheryl S.

55My dog had an absolute blast!! He loved zooming down to the water, running back up the incline, then weaving through the trees. He worse himself out quick! It’s clear that there’s some construction happening on the property but there were no other people around during our visit.Priscilla D.

55This spot is perfect for letting dogs explore and jump in the water. It’s closed off enough that I didn’t feel like I needed to worry about my dog running somewhere she shouldn’t. I would suggest having good verbal control over your dog as there are some water areas that I didn’t want her getting into and there is a road close enough that you really don’t want your dog sprinting in that direction.

55It’s easy to find if you read the info provided. I took my 1 dog to scope the place out and discovered that it would be an awesome place for him and a friend or two to visit again in the future. As mentioned, no fences so keep that in mind. There’s a beach, trails and open areas!
