55My girls absolutely loved it here! It’s super spacious and had a lot of areas they could explore.
Aside from the occasional barking, there weren’t any distractions to the dogs. My fear was that my reactive dog would be in her territorial stance, but since she couldn’t see the other dogs all was well :). Rosa L.

55Our dog loved this place, it was very clearly marked and easy to find. Entering and exiting is hassle-free. They have a water spout you can use and a nice big metal bowl for your dog. We went early June so there's was lot of bugs so you should bring bug spray. Overall a very nice spot for your dog to get their energy out and relax.Naomi O.

55Very easy to find because they have little signs pointing you to the gate! My puppies had a good time running & it was very secure. My boy dog had a fun time chasing the lizards around! It was a little dry and there were fox tails that I had to pick out of my girl at the end because she has long hair. It wasn’t too bad though! We’ll definitely be back.prisilla n.

55Such a great place to enjoy a warmer evening. It gets shady and cool, which allows my girl to run wild without overheating. She's a huge fan of climbing on the rocks, running the hillside and exploring all the cool nooks the place has to offer. I love being able to sit and read, knowing she's having a great time. The space is really clean, no other poop or trash. Chelsea M.
