Description

Two private landscaped lake-front acres for pups to run, swim & play. WELCOME TO WISEACRE NORFOLK! After more than a year and 330+ 5-star reviews, we're having a blast entertaining dogs and their people. Enjoy Adirondack chairs facing the lake or bring a blanket and enjoy tranquil views of Lake Whitehurst and Norfolk Botanical Garden, while watching planes take off from Norfolk Airport. If your dogs are into water sports, you've found the right place: There is a sloping bulkhead that eases into the water, 2-3 feet deep at the edge. NOTE: Humans are not allowed in the lake, per Norfolk regs. The picturesque Wiseacre Estate has been an Airbnb for 10+ years, and is now a private, peaceful retreat for your beloved doggies. * Hose and water bowl on-premises. Please park to the side of the garage and make your way around the left of the house to back yard. Kindly bring poop bags and pick up after your dog(s). Trash cans on red patio. Thank you and ENJOY! We will work to refund or shift reservations if rain derails your visit.

Hello Sniffers! Such fun to share my rather expansive backyard and lake with you. I have a 9.5yo Cavalier King Charles Spaniel named Charlotte. Dogs have been part of my life since I was a kiddo.

Welcome to our spacious, fully fenced yard – the perfect place for your pup to run, sniff, and explore! You’ll find easy street parking nearby – feel free to park in any available spot. Entry to the yard is through the gated door on the right side of the house, clearly marked with a Sniffspot sign. Our yard offers plenty of spaces for dogs of all sizes to roam freely and safely. Whether your dog loves to zoom, sniff every corner, or just relax in the sun, this is the spot! 🏃‍♂️🐕 We’ve also added some fun dog agility equipment, including hoop jumps and weave poles – great for active pups or training practice. For pet parents, there’s a cozy outdoor couch where you can kick back and unwind while your dog plays. We’ve stocked a black storage box with all the essentials: 🐾 Treats 💩 Poop bags 💧 Water bowls (small and large) 🎾 Dog toys 🗑️ Trash can and 💦 water source are located to the left of the steps. • To turn on the water, twist the handle counterclockwise, and turn clockwise to shut it off. • To get the water flowing, just pull the trigger foward on the nozzle. Come enjoy a fun, stress-free outing with your furry friend!

Fully fenced yard for fur babies. There’s plenty of seating, a swing set and outdoor toys/chalk for kids (please be aware that they are outdoor toys, so naturally bugs will more than likely try to get comfy in them 😊). Please leave the space as you found it (if you bring children, we ask that you please put back the toys they used).
