Welcome to our Backyard Nature Retreat

Fully Fenced
0.17 acres

If your dog(s) loves sniffing, exploring, and experiencing nature, you've found the perfect spot. Our backyard isn't a perfectly manicured lawn—it's a peaceful, park-like woodland oasis filled with natural scents, textures, and wildlife that encourage healthy enrichment for curious pups. Wander through a landscape of tree stumps, logs, stones, woodland plants, wetlands, wild strawberries, flowering trees, rose bushes, lilacs, hostas, boxwoods, common ivy, and seasonal blooms. Listen to birds chirping while your dog explores. You may spot red cardinals, robins, and many other songbirds enjoying our bird feeders and bird bath. There are countless sights, sounds, and scents for dogs to investigate, and depending on the season and time of day, you may also see rabbits, squirrels, bees, butterflies, fireflies, snails, ladybugs, and other fascinating wildlife. For humans, we've created cozy places to relax while your pup plays. Enjoy our antique iron park bench nestled among the gardens or gather around the fire pit area with our bright orange camping stools. An elevated hill offers another fun place for dogs to explore, and a water hose is available if your pup needs a quick drink or rinse. Property Information Fully fenced backyard for off-leash play. Additional unfenced side yard is available if desired. Please enter through the fence gate on the Devon Drive side of the house (it will be open). Please park along the side of the house—there is ample parking. No resident pets on the property, though you may see or hear neighborhood dogs. Please Note Please stay off the deck and deck stairs. You're welcome to relax anywhere else in the backyard. Please pick up after your dog and take all trash with you before leaving. Tips are always appreciated but never expected. Every booking helps us continue maintaining and beautifying this little wildlife sanctuary and expanding the gardens for both people and pups to enjoy. We hope you and your furry friend have a peaceful, sniff-filled adventure!

Historic and scenic property with natural barriers

Unfenced
4.5 acres

I own 11+ acres in West Chester (bordering Downingtown), although I’m currently offering access to the 4.5 acres that is not fully forested. The side of the property you’ll be enjoying has the mill which was built in the 1760s and converted into a home in the 1970s. This strip of land is bordered by a creek on the one side, and a millrace on the other. The millrace is where the water used to run when the mill was operating many moons ago. Both the creek and millrace have water, although the creek has proven to be much more alluring to visiting dogs. The deepest area in the creek is approximately 8ft. There is a bench there for you to sit and enjoy the view while your dog swims in the water. There is another, more private area, where your dog can get easy access to the creek water. I can provide you with a chair to enjoy this area, and will likely already have it there upon your arrival. There are steep embankments for both the creek and the millrace so it would be an effort for your dog to cross them to “escape.” At the end of my 4.5 acre property, the land comes to a peninsula where the millrace and creek meet to become one body of water. This peninsula serves as a natural barrier although my friend’s young German Shepherd did jump out into this water and after a deer on one frightful day. Fortunately, we got him home/back but I think it’s prudent for me to disclose this harrowing event for the safety of your fur baby. There is an outdoor stone patio where you and your pup(s) can relax in the shade. Here you’ll find a filled water dish for your pup(s) to enjoy and a trashcan for your dog waste. If past dog visitors are any indication of future visits, your pup(s) will likely be thirsty from all the exploring, good smells and open land to run and play. I have one of those tennis ball throwing devices that help you throw a ball super far that you’re welcome to use too. I ask that you don’t encourage your pup(s) to chase after the wildlife here, not just for their sake, but for the safety of your pup(s) too. I think the hawks might have put a dent in the small wildlife around here. You won’t see many small animals like squirrels or bunnies, although you are likely to see deer. If your dog is a young/strong “chaser” you might want to visit with a leash. You’ll also find less snuggly wildlife here like snakes and ticks. I ask that you use your best judgement in supervising your dog(s) and be sure to check them for ticks before leaving. Of course at your first visit, I’ll give you a tour of the layout with your dog leashed to ensure your comfortability with the space. I’d ask you to kindly replace the raft in the creek should your visit cause it to pop. For future consideration: I have about 7.5 more acres of land (on the other side of Harmony Hill Rd) that is forested, rather secluded, and also bordered by the creek. Here you’ll find the remnants of the dam that used to feed the mill, and some amazing water landscapes including large rocks and crystal clear water. I’m slowly trying to establish a walking trail in this area but it’s been hard keeping up with all the overgrowth. I’d be open to bartering where you would help cut back the trail overgrowth in exchange for your dog enjoying the forested area.
