I was at the retriever Academy this last week with some good friends. Top of the line training grounds. Great place to stay. I never left the grounds the whole time I was there ( there was no need to). I will be going there again next year. (Already booked). I Highly Recommend this place.
Top notch people , first class kennel for your dog , very clean Staff is very professional
The crew at Retriever Academy are second to none! I have been going there to train for years and have always had an awesome experience. When I explain to people what Retriever Academy is I equate it to a Retriever Disneyland. Planning another trip there this year!

I chose The Retriever Academy because of Derek Randle's reputation for being a stellar retriever handler and trainer. The facility, the grounds, the staff and the overall operation is first rate. The dogs are housed in a state of the art kennel facility and trained on grounds that are quite honestly some of the nicest retriever training grounds you'll see anywhere in the country. Everything is professional, from the appearance of the facility, grounds, staff and overall communication. Furthermore, and honestly most importantly, my dogs that have spent time with Derek and his team have improved tremendously. This is the place to send your retriever and is second to none for those with obedience, gun dog or hunt test aspirations. I will continue to use services from The Retriever Academy.
