Welcome! Right now its VERY basic. We are looking add on more fun attractions. The booking includes a .25 acre of a fully fenced in area. This area provides ample space to play or just hang out with your dog. We are about 15 minutes outside of down town Winston-Salem. Just far enough away to feel like you are out in the country. Of course, we are bias, but the area is very peaceful. In sharing our land we hope to provide folks with a safe place that you can enjoy watching your dog explore and play. Amenties: - Dog toys / tennis balls, herding ball, and tug toys - Agility obstacles / a small set of cones and poles to jump over - Chairs / 3 lawn chairs - First aid kit / one for humans and one for dogs - Bug Spray - Hand Towels/ to dry off (no worries if they get muddy) - Wet wipes / to clean your dogs muddy paws - Poop Bags Please Note: When using the water hydrant, we are on a well! Because of being on a well we would appreciate you double checking to make sure the water is off before you depart :) We have changed the sniff spot listing slightly. The large unfenced portion is now not part of the booking. If you would like to explore it, just send us a message and we may be able to accommodate your request.

Hi, I am Lori. I was inspired to open our park because of my late dog, Jace. When he was a puppy he needed a sniff spot... but there were only public dog parks. Jace has no interest in a large busy dog parks. He did not enjoy the social aspect of the park. He wanted a big place to discover on his own. Jace grew up with me. He was the dog I got while I was a college student. Later I was able to give him a yard of his very own. He is the reason why I love being able to host this service. Puppy Jace would have loved it. My partner and I have 2 other dogs. Lucy, a yellow lab mix and Stitch, a poodle mix. We also have the blue coop full of 14 chickens.

Muddy creek 2 Acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Park In Clemmons

Freshly fenced with open grass for running and playing. Also have some wooded area with taller grass and growth for exploring. Lots of shade trees also. Outside the fence is an additional 8+ acres to explore. If you wish to go down to the creek then only enter on far right side behind the fence.
