Description

Facebook Page: Like us on Facebook at Sugar Bush Acres (https://www.facebook.com) for trail updates, seasonal photos, and discount codes. **PLEASE NOTE:** All prices listed are in USD, and guests will be charged in US dollars. Welcome to Our Piece of Paradise! Our 45-acre private property offers 4 km of beautiful nature trails and wide-open spaces for your dogs to romp, play, and explore! Enjoy a 100% private, off-leash experience with no other dogs or humans around during your reserved time. From sniffing out natural trail scents to running fetch in our open field, your pup will be happily exhausted by the time you leave. Pricing & Capacity Base Rate: $10/hour (includes 2 adults and 1 dog) Additional Adults: $5/hour each (please add via the extra feature when booking) Additional Dogs/Puppies: $5/hour each Children: Free! What to Expect on the Property Nature Trails (~4 km): Cleared hiking trails weave through the bush. We recommend proper hiking footwear. Fun Zone: A dedicated area for agility and play, featuring weave poles, an A-frame, a dog walk, a tunnel, and jumps! Water Access: Two cleared spots along the water feature seating/benches for you to relax while your dog cools off (check the map for exact locations). Winter Sports: In the winter, our packed trails are suitable for skijoring, kicksledding, and dog-sledding. We also have an ESLA T6 kicksled available to rent (currently for human-powered use). Seasonal & Safety Tips Off-Leash Rules: If your dogs have reliable recall, they are welcome to go off-leash once you have passed the parking area and reached the main trails. Bugs & Trail Wear: Located in Northern Ontario, warm weather (spring, summer, and fall) brings mosquitoes and black flies. We strongly suggest wearing bug spray, long sleeves/pants, and sturdy footwear. Wildlife: Various wildlife frequent the area, providing endless "sniff-tastic" opportunities for your dogs. Trail Maps & Navigation A map of the trails is included in the listing photos for you to screenshot or print. Physical paper copies are available in the community board. Signs are posted at the beginning and end of each trail to help you navigate. Be sure to check out our community board on site for further information and a trail map! Parking & Arrival Instructions Please park on the right-hand side of the barn. We love hearing about your visit and welcome your feedback after your stay—enjoy your time immersed in nature!

Cleanliness

Hazards

HOST NOTE

The river that runs through the property has a strong current and in winter there are areas that don't freeze over. Keep your pet off the river. For summer swimming, dogs must be strong swimmers in order to manage the current. There is no fence, therefore as pet owners you need to be able to recall your pet, or use a leash for their safety. The trails are through the bush so the ground is uneven with stumps and tree roots, and there's potential for falling branches. During winter the trails are packed and depending on weather conditions may have ice patches underneath. Wildlife has been spotted on the property including bears, moose, deer, fox, and rabbits. Living in Northern Ontario expect mosquitos - dress accordingly and wear bug repellent if you so choose. This spot has a water feature, make sure to review these guidelines for visiting spots with water before visiting: https://help.sniffspot.com/article/167-how-to-keep-your-dog-safe-around-pools-and-water
