What an amazing spot!! So so glad we stopped here. We drove from Kentucky to visit family here in NC, so wanted to give the pup time to decompress after driving for 8 hours. He got all his energy out and loved every second of it!!
We packed our gang of four into our dog van and drove an hour to visit Captain's Retreat and it was well worth the trip! We will be back. Captain's Retreat is a thoughtfully designed dog park. The fencing is tall and sturdy (and looks very nice), and we loved the separately fenced parking area - totally safe and no danger of running into the road getting in or out of the car. The trail design through the woods is perfect, with hammocks and little sitting nooks along the way, and plenty of room for the dogs to get lost from view but still be close enough to call them back to us. They had the time of their lives! Running and sniffing - through the woods, traversing the gulley, over the bridge and through the field. We could have stayed all day! 3 of our dogs have some fear/reactivity challenges, so this was the perfect place to let them romp and get a much needed dose of freedom without the stress of other dogs and people. The gazebo area has everything you need - a grill, dog wash station, sitting area, and little porch - it would be a great place to spend a few hours relaxing while the dogs spend time doing dog things. There is a nearby house with a dog who barked quite a bit when we visited the newly fenced area, but that was no problem for us - just letting anyone who has a super-reactive dog know what to expect. Thank you for creating such a great space for dogs!

This is my third time at this location, and my first time in the evening. Highly recommend! The traffic was a lot lighter than other times I've been here, and it's a beautiful drive in the evening. I can't wait to come back next weekend!

Captain's Retreat was fantastic!! We felt so secure and safe with the fencing. Our pup had the time of his life running around and exploring and sniffing. We will be back!

This place is an absolute dream. Lots of really interesting variety, some grassy fields, some woodsy areas, and a little house to hang out in. My dogs loved it and so did I!! We could have spent a whole day there! The only small note I would make is for those of you who have very noise sensitive dogs - there is a pretty big road that runs along one side of the property. Large trucks were going by it for most of the time we were there. This shouldn't be a problem for most dogs, but if you have a very noise sensitive dog, you might want to time it at a lower traffic time (basically, this place is so great that I would say, go anyway!, just find the time that's lower traffic)

They say they want to offer a safe, secure and positive experience and that is EXACTLY what was provided! Brought 3 pups that don't often get to enjoy a large wooded area and they LOVED it. It's a wonderful and huge spot to allow your pup to run, explore and play, with multiple areas for the owners to enjoy as well, swings, tables, chairs. Not to mention the large bin of toys, treats, poop bags, bug spray, sunscreen and a wash area. We will for sure be going back!
