Dog walking in Linn

Loose Creek

Loose Creek is seven miles west of Linn. Bernard Bruns Conservation Area has seventy-seven acres of forest awaiting a pup and person looking for some outdoor adventure.  This state-owned property is the destination for people and pups on the hunt for a secluded spot to pitch a tent or roll out a blanket.  Come prepared if visiting Bruns because there are no conveniences within the conservation area. This beautiful piece of forested ground includes access to the Maries River. Back in civilization, a stop in at Annie's Station Restaurant will fill the belly with some good home cooking.  This restaurant is dog-friendly.  The outdoor deck will make you and your canine dining comfortable.  The restaurant is open for lunch Tuesday to Friday and for dinner on Friday and Saturday.

Grapes can be seen growing in rows upon rows extending into the horizon. A person with a pup may sit at the outdoor tables and sip samples or perhaps share a bottle with a (human!) companion. On the weekends, White Mule operates a restaurant which serves up some sumptuous steaks and fried chicken.  Also, the winery has a bed and breakfast for those serene getaways.
