55Wonderful! It’s like your own private park trail - plenty of sniffs and spots!
55Absolutely wonderful and so peaceful!
55Really great property! Wear long pants. My dog loved it :)
55i enjoyed this spot a lot. the host is extremely friendly and super helpful. i’m super glad we came but just remember if ur going in the trails…bring bug spray and spray urself before you get to walking.
55We had so much fun at this sniff spot! The property was absolutely beautiful, the pond was clean and the dogs loved swimming 10/10!!!
55It was awesome! Can’t wait to go back!
55This was an amazing spot with a ton of space for the dogs to run free. While it's not completely fenced, there's plenty of natural barriers to keep the dogs in the space. The dogs had a great time swimming and sniffing
55One of the boys favorites! The pond, what felt like miles of grassy trails for them to run around in. Will definitely be back!
55If your pup is a swimmer, this is the place for you! Melissa's pond is huge, clean, and surrounded by freshly-mown paths that lead into several wooded acres. Lots of sniffing and exploring potential! A fun time was had by all, and we will be back!
55Our dog loved the pond! Everything was very clean.

Hi there, my husband and I are recently empty nesters and have so much land to use. I am so passionate about dogs and wish I could rescue them all. So instead, I thought I could use my land to help make all the dogs happy! We have a wonderful pond that has zero chemicals in it and all natural that our dogs love to swim in, so please feel free to let your dogs enjoy the pond too, if they are swimmers.Should we not be home when you come...The driveway is gated. Don’t pull up too close as the gate will open up towards you. The code is (I’ll message it to you when you book) then hit the “send” button. It is on a timer and will self close. You can park on the right next to the green tractor. I do have a white husky on the front porch but she is very sweet and she’s chained up and likely will not even move. We also have dogs out back and they will sound mean but they are harmless and won’t get out of the fence.I suggest going around on the south end of the pond (my dogs out back won’t even see you) and there are mowed paths in the back property. The property out back is not fenced tho. The pond is all natural with zero chemicals. Feel free to let your dog swim. Let me know if you have any questions!
