55Large fields with cut grass to let dogs run. Very clean. Trash cans and bathrooms available. Very nice space. Hope to visit again.
55Always a great time here!
55We had a great time playing in the snow! There was plenty of open space for my dog to run and explore
55A wonderful Sniff Spot with a very gracious host. This is one of our favorite quiet places to walk.
55Was a quiet spot with plenty of space to roam. Pup had a great time
55Great place to explore with your dogs.
55Such a beautiful open spot! My pup enjoyed every inch of the open space so much to explore! Really awesome spot. Can’t wait to come back
55Haven't been in a while due to the summer heat, but it was as amazing as it always is! Absolutely one of our favorite Sniff Spots! Hosts are awesome and always responsive with questions, place is clean, and tons of areas for sniffies!
55Gorgeous spot, a lot of areas to explore, plenty of room to run, bathrooms where easy to find, some trash can be found here and there but it's to be expected with such a public space (my girl has an excellent leave it/drop it so no issues for me), never figured out how to get down to the water but that will be the missions for next time as I'm definitely going back.
55Quiet location, lots of open space! Well worth the money to let my dog run

🐾The Wildwood Retreat🌳Private 5 Acre Adventure⛰️Fenced in Yard with Splash Zone💦, Trails🥾, Parkour Play🪨, & River Hikes🏞️

Partially Fenced
5 acres

Welcome to The Wildwood Retreat! Perched on a spacious mountain property, our spot offers the ultimate private escape for you and your pups. Enjoy a fully fenced backyard featuring a stunning gazebo with 2 comfortable leather couches/futons, optional netted or solid enclosures, a wrought iron chandelier, a portable sturdy Bluetooth speaker, a stocked fridge, and an attached secure dog run. Beyond the yard, explore 5 acres of open land, private trails leading toward a beautiful river/creek, a scenic farm view, and massive indigenous rock structures that act as a natural agility course. (Please note: While our main in-ground pool with a waterfall is currently undergoing tile and coping renovations, our alternative Splash Zone pool is open and ready for action!) 🏡 The Base Camp (Backyard & Amenities) Wind down before or after your hike in our fully fenced backyard. Kick back in the shade on the comfortable leather couches beneath the gazebo (equipped with optional netting or solid enclosures), crank up your favorite playlist on the portable sturdy Bluetooth speaker, charge your devices, and help yourself to a complimentary snack or drink while your dog cools down and rehydrates. (Check our complete amenities list—we’ve stocked just about everything you could possibly need!) EXTRAS The Splash Zone ($5): An interactive splash pad featuring an attached 1.5-foot deep pool (depth can be lowered). Towels are included, along with waterless bath products and wipe-downs. Located inside fenced in area next to gazebo. Full Dog Wash Station 🛀 ($5): Hose attachment with adjustable pressure settings, hot and cold running water, a baby pool for a comfortable bathing space, and a wide selection of dog shampoos (including Aveeno and Johnson & Johnson baby shampoos). We also provide a rubber grip-handle scrubbing brush, conditioner, ear wash, fresh-scent spritzers, a waterproof collar and tether setup for secure leash tie-down during baths, and an electric nail grinder equipped with a heavy-duty diamond drill bit that never dulls and features bi-directional rotation (spinning in both directions) for easy use. If your dog struggles with itchy paws, we also offer our homemade soothing paw rinse to help relieve irritation. Keeping Cool at The Wildwood Retreat ($3): A powerful 45-inch industrial Heat Buster fan to keep your furry friends comfortable. It features a heavy-duty OSHA safety grate and is placed securely behind the safety fence—completely out of reach for ultimate peace of mind while delivering a refreshing breeze. The Dog Run: A secure dog run attached directly to the fenced backyard for easy, seamless transitions. Human Comforts: Dedicated storage space for your gear and easy access to an indoor restroom if needed. On the House: A refrigerator/freezer right by the gazebo couch stocked with fresh water for pups and bottled water for humans (plus flavor packets). We also provide collapsible travel bowls, hands-free water bottle straps and hiking bags, portable phone chargers you can take on the trails, sunscreen (including individual La Roche-Posay facial sunscreens), bug zappers (upon request), citronella candles, lint rollers, and plenty of dog waste bags! 🥾 The Wildwood Trails & Natural Agility Course Ready to explore? Head into the woods for an authentic hiking adventure on our mountain property. Our trail system features: The River Trail: Make your way through the trees on an uphill trek out to a beautiful river—and enjoy an easy downhill cruise on your way back! Scenic Overlook: Follow the property line out to a stunning view overlooking a local farm and preserved woods. Nature’s Parkour: Boost your dog's agility! Our 5-acre property offers a landscape unlike anywhere else in the region. Forget flat woods—you get steep slopes, rocky outcrops, and massive, ancient boulders that create a unique, three-dimensional maze for your dog to explore. It’s nature’s own jungle gym, full of rocky secrets waiting to be discovered! 🐾 Dip Your Paws In! Got a pup who is a little unsure about water? Skip the high-pressure splashes! Our calm river area is the ideal spot for timid dogs to take things at their own pace. With a gentle, natural entry, they can safely dip their toes in, explore the water's edge, and build up their confidence completely stress-free. ⚠️ Important Host Notes Property Setup: There is a home and a family shop on the property, but your trail and yard time is entirely your own private escape! Footwear: Because our trails feature authentic, natural mountain terrain with dirt, steep slopes, and rocks, proper hiking shoes or sneakers are highly recommended.

WATER WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE IN THE WINTER. ALSO MAKE SURE TO WEAR DRESS EXTRA WARM 🙏 ENJOY YOUR TIME to my Spot!, where your dog's athleticism can truly shine! Spanning 5 acres of off-leash freedom, this space is fully fenced to offer a secure environment for your dog to run, play, and explore. Whether it's dashing through agility courses or tackling other exciting challenges, your dog will have plenty of opportunities to unleash their full potential. This area is perfect for training sessions, dog meet-ups, or simply letting your pup burn off energy. With features like an agility course designed to test your dog’s skills and a water hose for cooling off on hot days, the Sports Zone is an ideal destination for active dogs. It’s especially great for dogs who prefer more space than crowded parks offer or those in need of a special adventure! I believe this space has so much to offer dog owners and their pets. To keep it accessible to everyone, I need your help in spreading the word. Share this hidden gem with fellow dog lovers, and let’s make it the ultimate spot for happy, healthy dogs and their owners!
