Rent safe and private dog fields hosted by locals in Arcata, California

Almost an acre of pastureland overlooking Jacoby Creek Valley for dogs to sniff, roam, play, and most of all be off leash and in nature. Come with your dog alone or bring some friends and dog pals (up to 6 total) to romp and chase and play while you relax. There are some toys and obstacles, water, and lots to dig. Please bring your own balls. There may be cattle in the adjoining field below, occasionally deer though rarely in the daytime. Chairs are set for a pastoral view, particularly lovely at sunset. People and cars may go by on the driveway. The spot is all yours when you are there and with respect to reactive dogs, I won't greet you unless we set that up in advance. I want the dogs to feel that this is their space and we won't intrude. If your plans change you can cancel or reschedule up to 2 hours prior to your reservation through the app but it does not allow changes after that. Please no smoking or using while visiting. Enjoy!

This open space rough; not manicured, but better than it used to be! It is a work in progress. :o) Once inside the heavy gate, you will find a long grassy driveway leading into a large undeveloped parcel. Please feel free to drive in and park at the north end of the driveway. [There is no fence on the east side of the driveway.] Mother Nature propels the plants upward - but we've hired goats to trim it down. It is still pretty rough though; definitely not manicured. Now we have 2-4 goats to maintain the brush. So, your dog(s) MUST be gentle around the goats. We will meet you on your first visit to help with the goats. The large parcel is fully enclosed.
