55My dogs and I had a great time. Great directions, lovely property and the stream was so beautiful. There are some hills but nothing that we couldn't handle. I have long haired dogs so they picked up a few cockleburs, to be expected. We brought a brush and were able to brush them out before they got too tangled. Would definitely do this again!Staci L.

55We had a wonderful time! We arrived a bit later than expected but Alma was kind enough to extend our visit. Luka loved the sniff spot, the water, and just being off leash in general. The lemonade was also delicious! Thank you so much for your hospitality.Christine S.

55i have 3 dogs named Jupiter, raja, and venus and they all had a great time running around and raja even tried to swim it was really steep and there were some big drops and this didn’t bother us but i know it may some! it was my 2nd sniff spot and probably favorite we will definitely be coming back! and alma was also very kind and let us reschedule but if your dog runs away and doesn’t come back maybe don’t take them offleash since i think it would be easy for a dog to get lost and again this didn’t matter to us but i know it may someJenna N.

55This place was amazing! Even the drive to it was just beautiful. I was a bit apprehensive about letting my dog off leash at first because you can’t see a fence and the cliffs are steep but I had his gps tracker on just incase, his recall is good and he rarely left my sight. It’s worth paying the extra for stream access - lots of fun and the sound of the water was so relaxing! Just a warning that the path to the stream was pretty steep so make sure you wear the right shoes! My dog was so so happy to be here! We purchased the lemonade and boy was that the best (and prettiest) lemonade ever! We fought over it 😂 Make sure you read the instructions that they text you as I only read the subject line which I assumed pertained to locating the stream and missed the instructions on driving to this place and relied on my GPS which it specified not to do! My bad! The instructions were clear and helpful. Can’t wait to come back here! Lynsey H.

55Harley and I loved this location. The hike can be a little steep but very do-able. The stream was fierce today but we had plenty to do around the property. The directions given were clear and concise. I can’t wait to bring Harley Quinn back!Cassie G.

55Thank you so much for opening your property to us pet parents! Although our dogs are very well behaved they are guardian breeds whoare not super fond of other dogs and can get protective around strangers so having a safe stress free place to let them be off leash and run is amazing! We will definitely be back!Madison J.

55I had a great time with Salty, it's very scenic and majestic, property is well kept, trails well maintained, a great adventure for sure. I opted for the stream package, it's a nice hike. It's a little tricky finding the location however the host was very informative and kept me on the right track. Most certainly going back!Rob C.
