555 stars because it’s exactly as advertised. Lots of acres of woodlands right up against a river and route 100. Easy to find and host was great with directions. I was traveling home from the holidays and was looking for a safe halfway point to stop and let my dog out to run around and stretch his legs. This was right on our way. I will echo what others have said — these aren’t well marked hiking trails, so if you’re not used to being in the woods, it might not be for you. We had great service the whole time and the highway is right there, so I think it would be extremely difficult to get lost. But if you can’t let your dog off leash and/or would be uncomfortable with steep terrain, this isn’t for you. For us it suited our needs! Thanks so much!
55The perfect place to explore with our pup! He’s not a huge fan of other dogs but loves to come with us on hikes and adventures so this was the best of both worlds. Annabelle was also very helpful in helping us find where to park.
35This area isn't quite what I was expecting - the description mentioned an old logging road so I assumed there would be a trail at least as wide as a less travelled hiking trail. There was, but only for the first quarter mile or so. After that, there didn't seem to be one specific trail, just a lot of crisscrossing areas that could be walked on. I didn't feel I would truly get lost with the hill, river, and road noise, but it was still a bit unexpected to not really have a solid trail to follow. The hill was very steep and a little wet despite no recent rain. My dog had no trouble but I had to take it quite slowly to avoid falling. I didn't feel confident letting my dog off leash in a brand new place that likely has wildlife, but a long line will get tangled in roots and saplings here. Advise this only for dogs that can be safely off leash, and people who enjoy steep hikes with no clearly marked trails. Advise bringing a loud whistle for calling your dog, hiking poles, and bug spray. On the plus side, I got zero bites with bug spray on. My dog did seem to enjoy sniffing the other dog smells at the start of the trail and I'm glad we got that in. *** Note: there was a pile of old scraps just a minute or two into the trail that appeared to have sharp metal! ***
55It was so lovely to have a stress free outing with my reactive pup. He absolutely loved the time in nature.
55Annabelle’s spot is gorgeous! There’s a cut path down to the river and then a whole mountainside to explore! The dogs loved all of it! They got pretty muddy exploring the mountain so I let them swim in the river just before going back to the car! It was perfect!

Hello! I am a fellow dog owner. I currently have two hound dogs Tibbers and Jinx who I spend as much time with as I can outside. My first furbaby was reactive so I can understand how hard it can be to find a sanctuary that allows your dog to get a taste of freedom and enjoy nature in a safe and stress free environment. Now that I have a sanctuary of my own, I wanted to share it with others.

Lakeside Meadows in Putnam Station

Unfenced
249 acres

Let your dog run wild and play on our hay meadows in Putnam Station NY. Spot is woman owned and operated, features seclusion and great visibility for a safe, rural experience (please see the map included in the listing). Wide open meadows are beautiful and convenient to NY 22 on a quiet country road. Easy, paved access from the Eastern shores Lake George NY, near Fort Ticonderoga, and the Western Shore of Lake Champlain. Dog owner DOES NOT need to clean up pet waste at our spot ;D Your pet's poo is a beneficial deterrent against crop damage and helps keep deer from hiding their fawns in the meadow. You should have leash, voice, or buzz collar control (we have collars available) to protect from escape into the wilderness or out onto the road. Please contact us a day in advance if you would like to borrow buzz collar system or GPS (so we can make sure everything is fully charged). Our town is VERY strict on DCO enforcement - no loose dogs on the road or neighboring properties EVER please, they would probably send you a ticket in the mail! :P If you anticipate having trouble with keeping your dog close upon entering/leaving the meadows please bring your car well within the steel gate to park before letting pooches out onto the meadows - there is a magnificent view toward the end of the access road and space to turn around in dry weather. Water features are available through streams and small ponds at various locations in the woods, also along the lake there are some ponds, for those who want a longer adventure. Pets may dig anywhere along the wooded edge of the meadows, please no digging in the grassland.

15-Acre Vermont Forest Escape for Dogs + Pond

Unfenced
15 acres

Enjoy a peaceful Vermont nature escape with your dog on our approximately 15-acre unfenced private forest property. The forest is natural and undeveloped, with no maintained trails or paths, making it perfect for dogs and owners who enjoy exploring the woods and a more rustic outdoor experience. Guests have access to a designated portion of our private pond, including a picnic table, an additional table with chairs, and a fire pit near the water. Firewood is available for purchase, and we can also provide a charcoal grill upon request. Please note that the entire pond is not part of the Sniffspot. The property owners and other guests may occasionally use a separate area of the pond/property outside of the designated Sniffspot area. The property is not fenced, so we recommend a long leash for dogs without reliable recall.

Chelsy's 29 Acre Unfenced Private Dog Park In Warren

Unfenced
29 acres

Located in Warren, just under 30 minutes from Plymouth, and minutes away from the Baker River and other lovely walks and attractions, is 29 acres of private trails and bushwhacking, backed by conservation (also great bushwhacking!) and National Forest after that. There is a dog on site if you’re looking for doggy playtime and someone to run with- or you can venture alone with a small amount of notice. This site also hosts two pet-friendly forest Airbnb’s though it’s not usual to run into others. There is a small-ish vernal pond (usually stays somewhat full all year) at the bottom of the property if you’re looking to play in the mud- if not it’s easy to avoid. There are penned chickens in a coop at the main dwelling.
