Four-Mile Loop Trail: If you’re looking for a trail that truly feels like nature, the first half of this loop delivers. You start out in a beautiful nature reserve with a peaceful, scenic atmosphere. However, the second half of the loop is a letdown—it takes you out of the park and through fairly ordinary suburban neighborhoods. The trail signage is decent, but you still need to pay attention. My recommendation: when you reach the south end of the trail and start seeing houses again, turn around and head back the way you came. If you’re using Google Maps, you’ll notice when you exit the southern end of the nature park—that’s the point where it’s best to turn back. The return hike through the nature reserve is far more enjoyable than continuing through suburbia.

Excellent dog park. Have been taking my dog here for a few months now and he begs me to now go daily. The park is always clean and well maintained, though note that the park is closed on the 2nd/4th Tuesday of the month for cleaning / maintenance and the water fountain is off for the winter. Good group of dog owners & good amount of room for many dogs to be in there at once doing their own thing or playing with eachother.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sammy’s Safe Spot is absolutely amazing! We had a Frenchie play date today and it could not have gone better. The space felt incredibly safe, clean, and well thought out, which made it easy to relax and actually enjoy watching the dogs play. The Frenchies had the best time running around, socializing, and being their goofy little selves. 🐶💕 If you’re looking for a private dog park where you don’t have to worry about overcrowding or safety, this is hands down the best spot. You can truly tell it’s made with dogs’ well-being in mind. We will 100% be back — highly recommend to any dog parent, especially fellow Frenchie lovers! 🐾💙
