Description

Welcome to Our Hidden Gem Next to the B2B Trail! Our private, fully fenced dog park is the perfect place for your pup to run free, explore, and just be a dog. Conveniently located right off the B2B trail and across the street from Timber Town, this spot offers a unique mix of nature, enrichment, and fun. Upon arrival, you’ll find a designated parking spot and a peaceful trail that winds around the back of the property to the park entrance. Along the way, you’ll pass our duck enclosure and pond—feel free to stop and say hi! If you'd like to feed the ducks, they love shredded lettuce or diced cucumbers (please, no bread). At the end of the trail, you’ll find a double-gated entry with a separate area for leashing and unleashing your dog safely. Inside, your pup will have the freedom to explore about a quarter-acre of fenced-in space, featuring fun enrichment structures like a dog bridge and stacked hay bales for climbing, sniffing, and playing. This space is ideal for dogs who prefer a quiet environment without the stress of other dogs nearby. While our fence is 4 feet high and the area is smaller than some, it’s a great spot for dogs who just need a safe, fun place to burn off energy and enjoy nature. You're welcome to bring a friend and their dog too—just add them as an extra when you book. We can’t wait for you and your dog(s) to experience a relaxing and joyful visit. See you soon!

Hi, I’m Mike, a furniture designer and the founder of a cat furniture eCommerce company that specializes in wall-mounted pieces made to enrich cats’ lives. Animal enrichment has always been a major part of my life—what started as a passion for building creative spaces for cats has grown into a full-time mission to design environments where animals can thrive. I opened this Sniffspot with the help of my sister and brother-in-law, both of whom are dog trainers and fellow business owners. Their expertise has been instrumental—not just in building out the park itself, but in shaping it into a safe, thoughtful space designed around what dogs truly need for fun and fulfillment. This park is a work in progress and a labor of love. We’re continuing to add new features over time, including unique dog structures and, by the end of summer, our goal is to make the park secure enough for off-leash cat visits as well. I’m excited to bring together the worlds of canine and feline enrichment in a space that celebrates movement, curiosity, and joy. Thanks for visiting—hope to see you (and your animals) soon!

Mandee's Private Wooded Dog Park

Unfenced
11 acres

This is privately owned land in Chelsea and will allow you to take your dog for a run in a mowed area with sections of long grass and also for a run through the woods. The wooded area has a significant amount of wetland that the doggies love to get filthy in so bring towels if you expect your dogs to run in the woods. You may see deer and other wild animals on the property. This is an awesome spot to take your pupper out in the wilds for a truly unique dog park experience. My puppers have a blast whenever we bring them out - and so does my 15 year old son. Please be careful on the wooded path as there are a lot of trip hazards in the form of dead trees and logs.
