Location

Ann Arbor, Michigan

Description

The back property is L-shaped. The majority is open space so plenty of room for zoomies and catch. There is some tall bushes, grasses, wild areas, and shaded trees to experience new smells and play hide-n-seek. There is a water bowl available, yet we're not always available to fill it before you arrive. There is a spigot/hose on the deck. Please be sure to turn it OFF after use--it leaks. Our requests: 1) Street parking only. Please do not park in the driveway. 2) Pick up your dog's 💩. Pooper scooper and small trash can is provided 🚮 3) No digging anywhere, even if it appears to be bare or an available hole. 4) No smoking 🚭 Be sure to walk all the way to the back fence to see our Heritage "Grandmother" Oak Tree that's over 200 years old! THANK YOU for respecting our space. Enjoy your time! 🐾🌞

Cleanliness

Hazards

HOST NOTE

There are 3 small, white dogs living next door, yet they generally aren't outside very long (5 minutes or less). However, if your dog is reactive, it may not be a good fit. You may, or may not, see them. There might be frogs, chipmunks, gardener snakes, rabbit, squirrel, opossum, raccoon, groundhog, skunk, or deer around (although dogs generally keep them away). Bring repellent for mosquitoes, if needed. We do our best to keep the space free of burrs, yet your dog may find one or two.

The Meadow Run Private Acreage

Unfenced
5 acres

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!

Donna's 2 Acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Park In Ypsilanti Charter Township

Fully Fenced
2 acres

**We have added an indoor space for you to relax and watch your pups play. Come check us out** As the weather is changing and days are getting longer, we plan to stay open till 9pm or longer just depending on daylight. 🐶 If you are looking for a quiet and secluded place for your fur babies to play you have found the right spot. This is a great spot for reactive dogs and non socials as I am situated on 5 acres and almost 2 of the acres are fully fenced for the SniffSpot. My neighbors are very spaced out as well, so u have a very quiet visit. Also a great spot for training ( we have added agility equipment, we have 2 huge tires, Agility jump poles, and an A Frame ladder). And a great spot for birthday parties or a group gathering with your fur friends. Please message with any question. ** Please have your pets on flea and ticks meds** 🐶🐶
