The "Maplewood Farm" Dog Park (5-acres!)
Welcome to the “Maplewood Farm” Dog Park -- a peaceful 5-acre nature escape in south Maplewood near Battle Creek, just minutes from I-94 and McKnight. This is still undeveloped farmland tucked into the suburbs, with a different feel from a typical backyard spot. Set among rolling hills, mature trees, wooded trails, open field space, and natural wildlife, it gives dogs a private place to run, sniff, explore, and decompress away from crowded dog parks. (For history buffs, we have the only standing barn in Maplewood, built in 1896, that is still in its original form and in use.) The main fenced play area is approx. 60 ft x 100 ft and is great for off-leash play, fetch, tug with the spring pole, and burning off energy. It also has a water-play area with a splash pool and above-head sprinkler/mister. You can even rinse or bathe your pup on the grass with the sprayer! For a good visit, I recommend spending the first part of your time in the fenced area, then leashing your pup for a slower sniff walk around the rest of the property. From the fenced area, follow the metal back gate into the wooded trail system, head toward the back cul-de-sac area, loop back toward the campfire area and barn, then continue through the mature forest trail, where I’ve installed several runner trolley systems for semi-free roaming. They give dogs a safe, guided way to sniff and explore along a peaceful trail surrounded by dense forest and mature trees. From there, circle back toward the open field, one of my favorite spots. Signs are posted to help guide you. This is a natural, dog-friendly space, so dogs are welcome to explore, climb on log/wood chip piles, pull on or chew on sticks, sniff around, and enjoy the property in whatever way feels safe and appropriate to you, including off-leashing. If your dog loves tugging on low branches, limbs, or natural wood around the property, that’s okay with me too. I’m not precious about the landscape here. Anything on the property can be cleaned up, moved, repaired, or rebuilt (including the tug pole!). My priority is your pup. Best times to visit: Mornings and early evenings are usually great for active dogs, especially during warmer weather. Afternoons can still be enjoyable too, with shade available for humans, water play for dogs, and wooded trails for slower sniff walks. Early evenings are one of my favorite times here -- you can often enjoy a quiet sunset with a hammock, giving both dogs and humans a peaceful way to wind down. Some guests also come after sundown for highly reactive dogs who need extra stillness, and LED collars make them fun to watch across the yard. If I’m home, I may briefly welcome first-time visitors once your dog is safely in the fenced area. If you prefer a no-contact visit, just message me ahead of time and I won’t greet you. As a dog lover and builder, I’m always improving the space and adding more dog-friendly features. It’s a great time to visit while the rate is still at an early-stage level. I just opened this spot in May 2026 and welcome your feedback. If you have ideas for making the space better for groups, trainers, or special dog gatherings, please let me know! 🐾 🐾 Valeng and paw friends 🐾 🐾

Friendly neighborhood backyard
Great spot with room to run, toys, some agility equipment, and seasonal plastic fur kid pool! Fully fenced: 1 side privacy fence, 2 sides chain link, and one side with the house and gate. Added FYIs: - Place bagged poop in the small garbage bin. 🗑️💩 - 8/13/25: FYI backyard neighbor is doing some updates on the home, it's possible that workers will be visible to you and your pups as they walk to/from their vehicle and a dumpster! 👷🏻 - Please do not allow pups to dig or to enter the small separately fenced garden. 🌱 - If you remember, it helps to throw "fetch" in lots of different directions to spread out the "wear and tear." IF something goes over the fence, do please just let us know (we will contact the neighbor)--**do not** physically step over the fence (it causes fence damage) 🏡 🤳🏻 - "Same day" bookings will probably have the bedtime and morning 💩 from my pups since I routinely only pick up after work during warm months. If you book 24+ hours in advance I can squeeze in an extra poo pickup before work. - *WINTER I pick up weekly, weather-permitting, so might NOT be a great spot for pups who eat poopsicles--you know who you are! 💩 ❄️ 🐶 🍨🍦
