Location

Afton, Minnesota

Description

We are about a quarter mile off the main road and our 10 acres go deeper into the woods. We have about 5 acres of wooded areas and 5 acres of open trails. It is a beautiful and private property. The property is 100% fenced- the fencing is 3 feet high- there is a gate in the driveway, once closed it is completely fenced in. We have water available for dogs- due to the cold weather, please message me if you want water available during your visit and I will put it out ahead of time if I am home.

Cleanliness

100% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

Hazards

HOST NOTE

There is one house to the northeast of the property. Our fence runs along their property line- the fence is 5ft along their property line. They do have chickens, a dog and outdoor cats. If possible, please avoid walking along their fence-line- we have had a few situations with dogs and their chickens. There are times throughout the year that neighboring properties have people hunting/shooting on their land. During that time gunfire and sometimes be heard. There are no safety concerns. We are already seeing ticks this season. Wear bug spray (there is some in the back) and make sure your pups are on preventatives.

Maplewood Private Farm Dog Park (5-acres)

Fully Fenced
5 acres

Welcome to Nessel & Luna’s Private Farm Dog Park (5 acres) in south Maplewood. This is a calm, spacious property where dogs can sniff, explore, roam, and enjoy the sights and smells of nature away from busy streets and crowded public parks. The main play area includes a large fenced section, approx. 60 ft x 100 ft, with room for dogs to run, play fetch, wander, and decompress. The property also has open land, trees, wildlife scents, and a peaceful farm-like setting near I-94 and McKnight. This spot is great for dogs who need private space, dogs who do better away from public dog parks, dogs building confidence, or owners who simply want a quiet place to let their dog be a dog. Resident dogs will be kept separate during visits. Please keep dogs supervised, clean up after your dog, and close all gates behind you. Unfenced areas should be used on leash unless otherwise discussed.

Ultimate Sniffing Experience in Roseville!

Fully Fenced
0.25 acres

Nearly 1/3 of an acre in Roseville available for your dog to sniff until their heart’s content! Open mowed grassy area wide enough for zoomies and long enough for fetch, as well as natural/unmanicured shaded areas for “jungle sniffari’s”. Not far off of Highway 36 and 35E, enjoy the perks of room to run while having the privacy of your own space. Plenty of seating for humans underneath a shaded gazebo, with a table and basic amenities for guest use. Please be aware that we do have other dogs in the neighborhood. This includes our direct neighbors to the north, who we share a chain link fence with. If you are visiting on an evening or weekend, there’s a good chance their dog will be outside also!
