55Got to meet the lovely owner (by accident) on the property and just knew this place came with the best charm! Will note that the “road” past the gate is a little rough and had some tall weeds sticking from the ground that can cause some loud noises and scratches, we didn’t mind it though! My dog absolutely looooved the space and THE ABSOLUTE BEAUTY of this property. The more I explored and walked around, the more I was amused by these picture perfect sceneries. Even though this was a bit of a distance from home, I will definitely consider coming back.Han L.

55We had such an amazing time with our German Shepherd. Once we drove in we went to the pond/lake area and if you hike past that there’s a trail through the trees. It’s gorgeous! Our girl was so happy she got zoomies. Prabhjot V.

55Monica’s spot was awesome! My dog absolutely loved it and we even extended our stay a bit. There’s so much for a dog to explore from fields to woods to the pond. It was also awesome not having to worry about people or other dogs as this is a very secluded location. We’ll definitely be back!Catie B.

55We loved our visit! My dogs had a great time running around and exploring. The host, Monica, left great instructions on how to get there. There was plenty of space, the fences were enough to keep my dogs contained. It was quiet and secluded, which provided my reactive dog with an environment he felt safe in. We will definitely be back for a good reset.Sonsaray H.

55This place ROCKS! My dogs didn’t stop for a minute. The sights and little walking trail on the other side of the pond were awesome. It was nicely fenced to contain my dogs. Would recommend a towel even if your dogs aren’t water dogs to help clean mud off. My dogs are dirty, happy and tired, as they should be! We WILL be returning.Brianna M.

55We had an awesome time here! My dog got to explore on the woodsy side and got to run/play fetch on the grassy side. We stayed for 2 hrs 30 mins and my border collie mix was actually tired which never happens. Especially great for reactive dogs because this spot is secluded. Would highly recommend. Juliet G.
