55The spot was very open! The river was also lovely. Perfect spot to let your dog run around.
55My boys loved it! Due to the rain, there was a lot of standing water. The dogs ran and splashed. I will put my boots in the car for our next visit.
55Flint loves the river spot and getting dirty! It may be his favorite spot!
55This is an absolute gem of a spot! We brought our camp chair and a picnic and then let the dogs run like the wind. Such a peaceful spot, thank you so much!!!
55This place is awesome! Very private and easily walkable!
55Oh wow this is such a beautiful place!! Flint LOVED it!! Lots of trees and space to run! The river to swim! It’s far enough off the road that to be unfenced it was truly perfect. We also did swim lessons and my dog has a life vest and he loved swimming!
55What a wonderful spot! Great access to the French broad river, lots of open field space and several walking paths/trails through the woods. If you read the host check in instructions it is very easy to find and get in. It was well mowed and not buggy at all today. I would wear decent shoes as it is by the river (wet) and had lots of tree cover (leaves and debris to walk though). I was happy to have shade as my pup gets overheated quickly. We will be back! Also this is a working property so you may see workers but they are all friendly and seem to love dogs!
55Beautiful spot!! We had a wonderful time! There is lots of river access, sun and shade and a great brewery just 3min down the road! Thank you for having us!
55Wonderful secluded area, with plenty of space to walk around. And the water access point is fantastic for both young and old animals.
55Had a great time! Silas loved it there !

HOST REPORTS

Sometimes

“The neighbor has a right of way to get to their field they may drive across, however they only come up a handful of times a year so they aren't likely to be there. Around once a week there may be people mowing/weedeating/etc. as well. (usually not on weekends but can't 100% guarantee that.)”

Great space! Lots of leaves, a little hilly. The shrubs and trees create a semi-fenced in yard. Hardly any dogs walk around near the house. My dog is reactive with other dogs but has not had an issue with not having a fence. Great yard for throwing ball!

#3 Fun field for a furry frenzy 3- Field of Dreams in Fletcher

Fully Fenced
4 acres

This is the best dog park in all of Buncombe County! Have you ever wanted to run your dog on three football sized flat fields? This is your chance. Located behind UPM Raflatac Warehouse in the cane creek industrial park this huge spot is the third one we have built. It’s perfect for all ages of dogs and their humans because of the terrain! If you are up for an adventure, we have cut in a small trail to access Cane Creek. It is part of the same property but is NOT fenced in any way. If your pup enjoys off or on leash hikes, then feel free. The trail is outside the fencing look for the silver gate across from the Gazbo. It is an out and back path with two small hills about a 3-5min walk in the woods. A picnic table, gazebo with swing, and hammock are located here for lots of seating and shelter. Some toys are provided. I think a Remote Control car or a drone, a mountain bike might be really fun to bring or even a Remote Control plane. This spot is actually part of the old Fletcher airport. No Digging! PLEASE! All I want in life is to help people to have balanced dogs in their lives! Enjoy!
