Half acre fenced in with gazebo chairs table. Filled kiddie pool on request.. it’s pretty private and serene. There is a playground, sandbox, swing in the tree and plenty of toys. Porch swing is under deck water bowls are by the hose. Feel free to fill them up if they are empty. We usually have everything ready. We made this spot in honor of Lola, a 2 year old American bulldog. She was so aggressive we loved her and tried everything, we failed. This is a safe spot!! We just added an extra dog bath feature. Check it out!

Expect plenty of open grassy space for fetch, tug-of-war, and zoomies. You can also incorporate: Training drills (perfect for obedience or K9 work) Agility-style play setups Socialization sessions in a controlled environment This makes it a great option for dog owners, trainers, and working dog handlers. 🌳 Comfort & Relaxation Shaded areas provide relief on warmer days, while open sunny spots are perfect for dogs who love to bask.
