Easy And Pretty Trail

This trail is completely paved so it makes a very easy hike. Lots of nice trees and the flowers were in bloom when we visited June 18. I am not sure that it is really off leash allowed so I kept my dog on a leash. There is a viewing area to stop and see some flowers and mountains. Cloud land trails are also right there for you to do as well. You have to travel through Tennessee to get there!

Beautiful View But Strenuous Trail

The sites on this trail were beautiful but the trail itself is pretty difficult especially in the rain. It took us about 2 hours to complete with allowing our dogs to stop and play in the water. It is very rocky with lots of rocks being loose. There is also lots of roots. We went in the rain and I would not suggest doing so as it was so slippery. There was a handful of fallen trees over the path as well which is why I give it 4 bones. My dog had fun and is a pretty good hiking buddy.

Very Nice Local Pet Store

I stopped in on my vacation to grab some snacks for my pooch. The store had a large selection and was very fairly priced. I found most items were about on par from big name pet stores. I found some cool brands I’ve never heard of as well. Definitely stop in if you have a chance

Very Accommodating And Pet Friendly

They were super friendly and accommodating to my large dog and my friends small dog. We sat on the covered patio with heating while it rained for hot teas. Drinks were good and the food was also really good. They offered us dog bowls for water immediately. Stop here if you have a chance for lunch or dinner.

Very Large And Nice Store

This store was very clean and had lots of options. They had some ruffwear dog gear if you need something for your pup. My dog was allowed in the store and shopped nicely with me. Got plenty of souvenirs there as well. Definitely stop in here with Fido if you have a chance.

Very Dog Friendly

Beautiful view and nice area to look over the mountains. Leashed dogs are allowed in the gift shop and overlook but not the photo museum. My dog enjoyed climbing on the rocks. There was a cat who lived there but ignored me and my dog. Go on a clear day for best views!

Very Dog Friendly

Me and a friend went with my German Shepherd pup and her Lhasa Apso. They immediately offered and brought our pups cool water. Food was great and they even had a heated patio for us to sit while it rained.

Very Fun For My Pup

We had a lot of fun on this trail. We stopped often to take pictures and even let my pup swim some on leash in the little creeks along the trail. Some parts of the trail have lots of roots so watch your footing. It was a rainy day and muddy but the pups didn’t mind at all!
