Mimosa Meadow

Fully Fenced
0.17 acres

Tucked away in the heart of Stanly County, this fully fenced backyard is a peaceful, pup-friendly haven where tails can wag freely and noses can explore to their heart’s content. Your pup will love roaming beneath the feathery shade of a blooming mimosa tree, chasing sunbeams or simply stretching out in the cool grass. Humans can relax on the deck, where there’s a table and chairs waiting for you to sit back and soak it all in. Need a drink break or cleanup? We’ve got water bowls available and easy hose access for cooling off or muddy paw rinses. There’s also a small cut flower garden you’re welcome to visit - feel free to snip a few blooms to brighten your day! 🌼 We do have two friendly resident dogs, but don’t worry, they’ll be inside during your visit to give your pup the run of the space.

Where Dogs can be Dogs

Fully Fenced
4 acres

Facebook video for property description! https://www.facebook.com/reel/857593750109937 This is a very quiet place on a country road where your dogs can be off leash and free to explore nature. The full four acres are surrounded by a 5 foot fence and there is a small creek running through the property. There is a wide spot in the creek that is easily the most popular spot for our canine visitors! In the summer, though, the creek dries up until the fall rains come. You can always message us to find out if there is water in the creek before your visit. There are larger fields and open areas for your dogs to practice their retrieving, and there are many paths in the woods for hiking. The beginning of each path is marked with quartz stones to show you the way. You will also find several benches scattered throughout the property so that you can take a load off while your dogs run and play. When it rains the property can be quite wet in some areas, so bring boots and a towel to clean off your muddy (but happy!) dog. There is a full competition size agility field within the four acres. The agility equipment is completely fenced in and will be accessible only to those who have had at least one formal beginner's agility class. This is to keep you and your dog safe and to prevent misuse of the equipment. Please message the host when you book the spot and before your first visit to discuss your agility experience if you are wanting to access the equipment. **I would really like for your first visit to be on a weekend or a Tuesday (my day off) so that I can meet with you to show you some details about the property and discuss parking. After the first visit, book whenever you want! If you absolutely cannot make it these days for your first visit, we can work something out. 🙂

Private 5+ Acre Dog Adventure Retreat – Creek, Pond & Trails

Partially Fenced
5 acres

Give your dog the freedom they were meant to have. This private, peaceful property offers over five acres of open land and natural terrain — perfect for dogs who love to run, explore, sniff, splash, and fully engage their senses. Dogs are welcome to roam on or off leash depending on your comfort level. The property is partially fenced at the entrance, with wide-open natural areas beyond — ideal for recall-trained dogs, scent work, hiking-style exploration, or simply letting your dog enjoy being a dog. ✨ What makes this spot special: • Natural pond for water-loving pups • Shaded, shallow creek perfect for splashing and cooling off • Wooded trails and a bamboo thicket that create a unique “mini forest” exploration experience • Rustic barn backdrop that adds charm and extra space to roam • Large open fields for full-speed running and energy release • Abundant natural scents and terrain for enrichment and mental stimulation • Shaded areas throughout the property for breaks and relaxation • Metal entrance gate (lifts slightly to latch securely) for added peace of mind This space is especially great for: • High-energy dogs • Working or scent-driven breeds • Water-loving pups • Owners looking for privacy and a distraction-free environment Instead of a traditional dog park, you’ll find a quiet, nature-filled adventure space where your dog can explore different textures, smells, and landscapes — from open fields to wooded areas to cooling water access. Unwind, explore, and enjoy a calm, private outdoor experience designed for dogs and their people.
