55Great spot. Great landscaping.
55A great place to let your dog run around and explore. Although she’s not fond of Water, she did lay in the creek. Desperate heat causes desperate reactions. Surprised to see her in the water.
55I loved this location just as much as my dog did! Such a peaceful and relaxing getaway from the city. Quiet, clean, and my dog had the best time playing in the creek and running in the spacious yard. Easy access as well.
55Clean, spacious and very quiet. Excellent for a dog who loves to run and explore. The creek is a nice bonus if your dog likes playing in water.
55The property is very pretty and secluded. We went early morning and it was lovely! There are roosters nearby (not on the property but we could hear them). The creek looks amazing but my dog isn’t a fan of the water so we mostly walked around the edges of the property. Loved it!
55My eugene had so much fun swimming in the creek great spot!
55So pretty! My dogs had a great time exploring and getting in the creek
55The space is beautiful and clean! Kristen was also incredibly accommodating with my requests and very quick to respond. We'd love to visit again!
55We had a lovely time in the large yard and my dog thoroughly enjoyed splashing in the creek!
55Nice spot My dogs loved the creek

Location

Elgin, Illinois

Description

Beautiful secluded property with a creek running through it. The backyard is about 1 acre with a big open field surrounded by large mature trees and a creek bordering the back side. Dogs must be trained not to run off as we do not have a fence. Old fence posts show the property lines. You can to take a dip in the creek with your dog to cool off on hot days. The water does flow so I wouldn't recommend it for really small dogs. The water is fairly shallow but can get high and flow fast after heavy rain. You will have to walk down a small hill to enter the creek. The weeds get high by the water but I have made 2 separate paths to enter the creek. Entering the creek is at your own risk. The creek is on the property line so the land across the creek is not part of the property so please do not go across the creek. If you do plan on going in the creek I recommend water shoes and a towel, it can get muddy by the water. And it can also get buggy, so you might want to bring bug spray as well. Feel free to move any of the chairs from the firepit to anywhere around the yard but put back when finished. Please clean up after your pup, garbage can is the green one by the garage. You can park on the left side of driveway by the RV and enter on the left side of the garage.

The Red Door Salt Creek Sanctuary - Fully Fenced 1/2 Acre

Fully Fenced
0.5 acres

Fall/Winter update: the yard is DARK after 5pm. Hose is off for winterization, so please bring water. Our 1/2 acre fully fenced dog-friendly yard is here to host your special furry friends. We live a short, straight-shot drive from Chicago and are butt-up against the beautiful Salt Creek (and all the wild life that also calls the creek "home" - bunnies, squirrels, groundhogs, birds, garden snakes (harmless, but present in May), etc.). The head of Salt Creek Trail is located just a block away on Thomas Street, so feel free to explore the creek/trail after your yard time. It leads all the way to Villa Park, where you can catch the Prairie Path / Great Western Trail. You'll pass by MORE Brewing Company as well as outdoor bar and food trucks Fuel and Creme (ice cream). Make a day of it! Please note that even though the yard IS fully fenced, it is comprised of a variety of sizes shapes ranging from 6 feet privacy, raw iron, to 4 foot chain-link, barn wood with chicken wire between the wood gaps. You know your dog's "flight risk" better than anyone, so please make smart decisions when booking our yard. Dispose of poop bags in the BLUE TOP bin (green is recycle). Finally, note that we can only host 2 dogs at a time due to wear and tear on the yard. Have fun!
