55We had a great time here. My dogs loved it and enjoyed the large field to run in and liked the option. To cool off in the water. The property was clean and well kept. There were horses and chickens in other fenced areas which was fun!Lindsey W.

55This place was awesome! I’m not sure which activity my dogs loved most: splashing around, sprinting through the field, or rolling around in their freedom. Host was very kind, chill, and clearly someone who cares greatly for animals. We couldn’t be more grateful for the opportunity to let loose at a special place like this. Thank you so much for helping make our dogs’ day 🐾🐾Kourtney B.

55My dogs had a lot of fun here. After all the swimming and running, they were pretty tired. The pond was pretty deep at some points (we lost our kong ball after it sunk! Be careful!) . The area was clean and big. There was a horse and some people working but it was not a problem. Overall a positive experience and perfect for a hot and sunny day!Sally H.

55Great spot! I took my boys, and our dog there for Mother’s Day and we had a great time!
Love the man made pond. My dog Bodie Mae is getting more and more confident about getting out to the deeper side, and that’s really fun to watch her learn. Thank you for sharing your beautiful property with us!!! sally w.

55We had a blast! Our two boys had so much fun running around the grassy field and playing in the pond. This spot is doggy heaven if your dogs like water and if they don't, they can spend time checking out the field or just chilling in the shade. We will definitely be back!! Kristy J.

55Love this spot! Clear directions from host on entry details, lots of space to explore and the swimming area is fantastic - clean water, shallow end and also deep enough for my extra large dog to swim. Large grassy fields to romp, he made friends with the horse on the other side of one fence - chickens also visible from property. Spot has all the supplies we needed (bags, balls, towels) - will be back! Lindsey J.

55We took our goldendoodle here on Sunday and she had a great time. Loads of space to run around and she loved the water!
No other dogs were there at our time slot so we had the place to ourselves.
Great place! Will definitely bring her here againBilly C.
