Our trail system features: The River Trail: Make your way through the trees on an uphill trek out to a beautiful river—and enjoy an easy downhill cruise on your way back! Scenic Overlook: Follow the property line out to a stunning view overlooking a local farm and preserved woods. Nature’s Parkour: Boost your dog's agility! Our 5-acre property offers a landscape unlike anywhere else in the region. Forget flat woods—you get steep slopes, rocky outcrops, and massive, ancient boulders that create a unique, three-dimensional maze for your dog to explore. It’s nature’s own jungle gym, full of rocky secrets waiting to be discovered! 🐾 Dip Your Paws In! Got a pup who is a little unsure about water? Skip the high-pressure splashes! Our calm river area is the ideal spot for timid dogs to take things at their own pace. With a gentle, natural entry, they can safely dip their toes in, explore the water's edge, and build up their confidence completely stress-free. ⚠️ Important Host Notes Property Setup: There is a home and a family shop on the property, but your trail and yard time is entirely your own private escape! Footwear: Because our trails feature authentic, natural mountain terrain with dirt, steep slopes, and rocks, proper hiking shoes or sneakers are highly recommended.
