Top Public & Private Dog Parks in Ann Arbor, MI

The Meadow Run Private Acreage

Welcome to 5 acres of completely secluded, wide-open natural terrain designed for dogs who love to run, hunt, sniff, and work! Nestled directly alongside quiet nature preserves, our property offers incredible privacy and a peaceful escape from suburban distractions. This is not a manicured suburban backyard. Instead, you will find a beautiful, rustic slice of natural country fields featuring tall seasonal grasses, thick brush, and mature trees. It is the ultimate environment for off-leash scent work, long-line recall training, gun dog or sporting breed fundamentals, or just letting a high-energy pup sprint across massive distances without the stress of a public park. To make your visit comfortable, we maintain a wide, freshly mowed walking path that loops entirely through the 5 acres, giving handlers a clean trail to walk while their dogs explore the cover alongside them. The Layout & Safety Details Acreage: 5 full acres of natural, rustic field. Fencing: UNFENCED. This spot is wide open. It is ideal for working breeds, dogs with highly reliable recall, or handlers utilizing training lines. Terrain: Natural, unmowed country field with a mowed walking loop. Please wear sturdy outdoor footwear! Because it is a natural area, we highly recommend up-to-date tick prevention for your pups. Privacy & Homestead Disclosures Total Isolation During Bookings: Your reservation is 100% private. We promise that the 5-acre field will be entirely free of other people and animals for the duration of your visit. Arrival Visibility: Because this is an active homestead, there is a chance you may briefly see us outside taking care of property chores when you first pull into the driveway. However, we will head inside or stay completely clear of the field once you arrive so you can enjoy total privacy. Acoustics: While we have no close or visible neighbors, sound can carry in the country, and you may occasionally hear a neighborhood dog barking in the far distance. Our Animals: For the complete safety and focus of your dogs, our poultry flock is kept completely secure and locked away in their enclosed run during all active bookings. Amenities Provided Dedicated, off-street parking spot right near the field entrance. A clean human seating area near the entrance. Dedicated waste station (trash can + complimentary poop bags). Fresh, clean water station and a dog bowl. Host Rules Please clean up after your pup using the provided waste station. Keep your dog secured until you are in the trail. We have chickens who spend there time around the chicken coop in the front by our home which is not visible from the trail. The neighbors home at the top of the hill is visible a bit. They are friendly and rarely home, if you dog wanders over just bring them back into yard as soon as you can Enjoy the ultimate peace and quiet!

Wynshire Woods Dog Trail In Whitmore Lake

🌳 🌲 Welcome to Wynshire Woods! 🌲🌳 We feel so blessed to call this property our home, and we’d love for others to experience the beautiful nature we get to enjoy each day. Our 49-acre property is nestled in the woods, 1/4 mile off the road, with parking near our metal barn at the bottom of the driveway. Wynshire Woods has over a mile of trails through the hills and trees, with fallen trees to sniff, hills to climb, ravines to explore, and plenty of nature along the way. There are two trail options: Long Trail: About 1 mile | 40–60 minutes Short Trail: About 1/3–1/2 mile | Around 25 minutes We hope your dog(s) enjoy all the sights, sounds, and smells throughout the woods! We have wild turkey, deer, and plenty of other woodland critters to sniff out and explore. Hopefully they head home tired, satisfied, and happy. 🐾 A NOTE ABOUT LEASHES + OUR FARM ANIMALS: Our property is completely unfenced, and we have horses, goats, barn cats, and free-range chickens near our home and farmyard. Dogs must be leashed or on a long line on the trails near the house and farmyard, as outlined on the trail map. Part of the trail also passes by our fenced goat area where our chickens also free range, so please keep dogs under control through this section. On the long trail, once you are past the house and before you enter the trail leading to the farm area, dogs with reliable off-leash recall are welcome to explore off leash. Please leash them again before heading down the trail that passes the farm area. Please do not allow dogs to enter any of our farm or animal areas. Any dog that chases, injures, or causes significant distress to our animals may result in a fine. OUR DOGS: We have four dogs who are contained by an invisible fence and do not have access to the trails or woods. As long as your dog stays outside of their designated area near our home, there should be no interaction with our dogs while you’re enjoying the property. 🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸 HUNTING SEASON: OCTOBER 1–DECEMBER 31 Wynshire Woods will be closed on weekends from October 1 through December 31 for hunting. Any additional hunting days will also be blocked off and unavailable to book. Because there are neighboring properties where people hunt, all dogs must remain leashed during hunting season, even in the areas where off-leash dogs are normally permitted. We have two orange dog vests that hang in the hay barn/hut near the parking area for you to use while walking. You may want to wear an orange hat or other blaze orange yourself as well. And just to be clear: No one will be hunting on our property on days the trails are open. I just want to be extra cautious since there are neighboring fields and woods where people may be hunting. 😁

Sarah's 1 Acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Park In Milan

***IMPORTANT UPDATE*** We will be adding chickens (in a coop) over the next week or two. Recently added a Ninja Fireside 360 heater on the patio to keep you warm on those cold days. Free to use. Please make sure to turn propane on/off. This fully fenced in yard is the ultimate oasis. Walk your dog on over and relax next to Ford Lake with optional usage of the fire pit, fridge, and tiki torches. We also have two playgrounds for younger children (or children at heart) to enjoy. There's also a scooper, dog poop station, and toys available for you to use. Wifi is available free for guests. Connection information will be sent during your booking. Need to charge your phone or use an outlet? Feel free to plug-in to our outdoor receptacles. Need to run your dog at night? Not a problem! We have exterior lights we can turn on both by the lake and near the house that will give you more than enough light to see. There's also solar lights placed throughout the yard. While we don't specifically have an outdoor restroom, if you need to use the restroom, message us and we can let you inside. Dogs must remain outside while you use the facilities. Stay for an hour or have an evening relaxing by the lake with your pup. Note that if your dog is more reactive around people, we recommend coming during the morning during the week. During the summer you may see neighbors out in their yards doing yard work. We have put the kiddie pool up for the season! Feel free to let your dog jump in or get in yourself. This is a free addition to using the site. We also recently added a temporary larger pool for adults (no animals). This is our first year with the pool, so please be gentle while we learn the ins and outs. The yard is intended to be used primary as a dog play space, but if it's hot enough, message us and you can cool off quickly. While we do our best to keep the yard free of poop and check every other day, you may still find some from either guests or our two dogs. We have nearly an acre of yard and it does make it difficult for us to find them all every time. As far as updates from last summer, we have poured two concrete pads: one for a shed and another as a patio under the pergola. We have also had the black walnut tree by the garage cut back significantly to the property line. While this reduces shade on the garage area, it also should reduce the amount of black walnuts that fall. This summer our yard will be one of the stops on the Milan Garden Tour in July.

Leslie's 12 Acre Unfenced Private Dog Park In Ann Arbor

Welcome! We are working hard to make our peaceful, quiet 12 acres into a beautiful park. You are welcome at any time, day or night, to walk, run, bike, ski or snowshoe with your dogs. We no longer have any pets-- no more dogs, horses, chickens, or other livestock. We are often visited by deer and groundhogs. Although we have 12 acres, the house and barn are in the middle of it, so you may see the house from many areas during your visit. Usually, we are working inside or we are away and we keep most of the curtains closed. We may use the driveway or receive a delivery. Future plans include clearing the West trails, planting more evergreens, and making an indoor play space in the barn. Our park will continue to improve -- it is a work in progress! We took lots of pictures and will continue to add them. We want you to know as much as possible about the site before you come here for your visit. We welcome your suggestions on how to improve.
