What Reviews Say

8 reviews analyzed

Maplewood Dog Retreat is highly regarded for its beautiful, spacious grounds and the personal care provided by Michelle, who helps put first-time boarders at ease. While the facility is praised as a 'vacation' for dogs rather than a standard kennel, there is some minor concern regarding recent price increases. Overall sentiment is exceptionally positive, though many reviews are ratings-only without detailed text.
