A huge, clean expanse of Green space. Nicely shaded on a hot day. Unfenced but boardered by riverfront and dense vegetation on most sides so dog is easily contained. Great time.

This my dogs new favorite Sniffspot! SO spacious, so much space for them to run, and they absolutely loved the water.

Beautifully maintained and lovely spot to access the river. Detailed instructions to access the property + signage. Dogs + kitty had a blast! It was almost 90 degrees when we visited, but we were able to stay cool with all the shade and the river. Will definitely return! 😁

We had a fantastic visit! Beautiful property and easy to navigate/find. Our pups had a blast in the French Broad!

This 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!

This was a great spot for the pups! Plenty of space to explore under a shady canopy of trees. We spent our time walking the property and sitting by the river. Two kayakers passed by, which was a good training opportunity for our reactive dog (soon to be best good girl). We loved that we were minutes from the Pisgah Ranger District. It would be a great spot to stop and let your dog burn off some energy before taking to the trails.

Lots 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.

We 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.

This place was SO beautiful! So spacious! We will def go back! Word to the wise if you’re coming from Asheville: it’s a 45 min drive away. So worth the drive though. My dogs had a blast

Great 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!

Make sure you read directions before going. It is easy to find once you know what to expect. This is as a really nice spot, piggie enjoyed herself immensely. Plenty of space to run and swim.

Wide open space on the river, with a ton of shade. Bring your own chairs if you want to lounge. Great spot.

September 2024

This was our first time at this particular Sniffspot of hers. Just like all the others, it’s a five out of five! Our dogs loved it, my little dog got to play on the agility course which he loved! Now we’re thinking about getting him into agility. Thanks so much, Elizabeth!

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.

November 2024

Love 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.

Marnie Z.

December 2024

Excellent 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.

Kate C.

December 2024

Awesome as always! Our first time back since the storm and I was impressed with how well they cleaned everything up!

Desiree B.

Great spot as always! Quiet and peaceful and lots of opportunity to sniff, dog, swim, and play in the sand.

Cheryl S.

January 2025

It 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!

Priscilla D.

February 2025

My 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.
