0.5 acres

Welcome to Southeast Wisconsin’s Finest Pet Resort! Here at Cedar Dale Pet Resort we have been caring for your four-legged family members since 1981 and now we are offering you a whole new experience- the opportunity to enjoy our recently remodeled Private Puppy Playground! Fun is sure to ensue in a fully fenced natural grass play yard filled with numerous obstacles and various play equipment for the ultimate enriching experience! Zoom through tires, climb on spools, and run down slides. Lay in the grass under the shade of a tree or dig in the sand. Seating for the human family, waste scoop & receptacle are provided. Complimentary wade-pool and towels will be made available upon request. Currently hours of availability for our Private Puppy Playground are generally when our guests are napping or inside the resort eating so no need to be worried about other dogs interfering with your pup’s outing. During the summer months when the weather is nice and our guest volume is high, we may have dogs outside in the other yards midday, but we will not utilize the yard next to the Private Puppy Playground during Sniffspot reservations. Other daytime hours may be available upon request, but we ask that you contact the resort directly for scheduling those times. Additional services including daycare play groups, overnight boarding, nail trims, bathing, and full grooming services, as well as professional training are also available.

Take a dip in the creek! Beautiful secluded acreage with mature trees

Unfenced
1 acre

Beautiful secluded property with a creek running through it. The backyard is about 1 acre with a big open field surrounded by large mature trees and a creek bordering the back side. Dogs must be trained not to run off as we do not have a fence. Old fence posts show the property lines. You can to take a dip in the creek with your dog to cool off on hot days. The water does flow so I wouldn't recommend it for really small dogs. The water is fairly shallow but can get high and flow fast after heavy rain. You will have to walk down a small hill to enter the creek. The weeds get high by the water but I have made 2 separate paths to enter the creek. Entering the creek is at your own risk. The creek is on the property line so the land across the creek is not part of the property so please do not go across the creek. If you do plan on going in the creek I recommend water shoes and a towel, it can get muddy by the water. And it can also get buggy, so you might want to bring bug spray as well. Feel free to move any of the chairs from the firepit to anywhere around the yard but put back when finished. Please clean up after your pup, garbage can is the green one by the garage. You can park on the left side of driveway by the RV and enter on the left side of the garage.

55It was so beautiful and private! There’s water for your dog, animals to see (through a fence), and tons of trails! My dog Cash was very excited. Once he calmed down he roamed free with us and loved it. We made sure he was always leashed when near the animals, though, to be prudent. It was an awesome experience and my dog is currently down for the count as I’m writing this

55I really enjoyed this space! The host provided sunscreen and bug spray and it was very clear where the open space was. I did not let my dog off the long line because she can't be trusted around other animals but I did tie her to a long line for half the time and there was lots for her to explore. We spent half the time walking and half the time just sitting. So relaxing to know that a random dog won't just come up. The gate is wide enough that a small dog would be able to escape easily though. She did get a lot of seed pods on her just from sniffing but she's just a hound dog so it came out really easily but if you have a dog with dense fur it might be troublesome to detangle.

55This was AMAZING!! We just hung out in the wooded fenced-in area… this place was huge! I believe that whole area is fenced in per the host, but my dog doesn’t have perfect recall & I didn’t want her chasing after a random small animal into the bushes so we kept her on a 50 ft long line and it was still very very fun!! Also, there were ducks, chickens and a very friendly donkey too near the fence!! This place was so nice to explore with my pup. We will be back :)

55 This was a nice wooded spot with trails cut through very nice white was hot out shady . Was able to get through the trails in 10 minutes, so repeated and took some of the other turns to make it more interesting for the dogs. The spot was very clean. There was a picnic table, fresh water, waste bags, a trashcan and completely fenced. Instructions how to enter the spot we’re very clear made for a great morning for the dogs. Thank you.

55This was a great Sniffspot!! There are two areas with trails. We only explored one of the areas. The mowed trails weave through a mixed deciduous woodland. There is a picnic table in small, sunny open area in the woods. The Sniffspot is was easy to find and the host emailed great directions. Host is great. She even was kind enough to come out and point out where the trails start since I wasn’t 100% sure. There are some ducks, geese, and a donkey near the house, which are visible from one portion of the trail system. Was not an issue for my pup but something to be aware of. We will definitely return! Next time I will bring my binoculars as it is great habitat for birds.

Frequently asked questions about Marengo dog fields

What amenities do Marengo dog fields typically include?

Marengo dog fields feature amenities designed for full-speed running and fetch: wide-open grass fields, fetch lanes, and open running space, secure fencing options, water stations, waste disposal, and often extras like toys, shade structures, or parking. Unlike public parks with generic setups, Marengo hosts customize their spaces. Browse 116 listings to compare—from bare essentials to luxury amenities perfect for your dog's needs.

How much does it cost to use Marengo dog fields?

Sniffspot runs on a membership model with monthly and annual plans that include credits toward Marengo dog park bookings. Members get discounted rates at participating Marengo spots, and new users can start with a 7-day free trial. There are no surprise booking fee. Your credits cover the reservation. Browse Marengo dog fields listings to see individual spot pricing, and check your membership dashboard to see how many credits you have available.

How clean are private dog fields in Marengo compared to public parks?

Significantly cleaner. Public dog parks in Marengo see dozens of dogs daily with sporadic city maintenance. Private dog fields have dedicated hosts who maintain their own spaces—cleanliness directly affects their reviews and bookings. Many Marengo hosts provide fresh poop bags, sanitized water stations, and regular grounds cleaning. With only one booking at a time, waste accumulation is minimal.

Can I book Marengo dog fields on short notice?

Usually yes! Many Marengo dog fields offer same-day or next-day availability with instant booking. Unlike public parks that might be crowded unpredictably, Marengo private dog fields let you reserve exactly when needed: early morning before work, midday breaks, evening exercise. Real-time availability shows on each listing—perfect for last-minute training or when routines get disrupted.

What's the best time to visit dog fields in Marengo?

Any time works since bookings are private! Unlike public dog parks in Marengo that are crowded during peak hours (mornings, evenings, weekends), you don't worry about timing. Book when it fits YOUR schedule—midday when it's quiet, dawn for cool weather, late evening for convenience. Many Marengo dog fields have lighting for after-dark visits. This flexibility is perfect for shift workers or dogs with special needs.

Do Marengo dog fields allow multiple dogs?

Yes! Most Marengo dog fields welcome multiple dogs from the same household. Some hosts set limits (check listings), but generally you can bring your whole pack. This is perfect for multi-dog households in Marengo where some dogs are selective—they can play together privately without outside interference. Great for sibling bonding or families with mixed ages/temperaments.

Can I use Marengo dog fields for special events?

Many Marengo dog fields welcome doggy birthday parties, training workshops, breed meetups, or group playdates. Private bookings mean your event won't be interrupted. Coordinate with Marengo hosts about capacity, amenities (parking, shade, water), and any restrictions. Some even provide party extras. Check individual Marengo dog field listings for event policies.

How do Marengo dog fields accommodate dogs with special needs?

Marengo dog fields are excellent for special needs dogs because you can filter for specific requirements: flat terrain for mobility issues, secure fencing for blind/deaf dogs, quiet locations for anxious dogs, small spaces for seniors, or maximum privacy for reactive dogs. Read reviews from other Marengo special-needs dog owners, and contact hosts with questions. The private setting means you can adapt the experience to your dog's unique requirements.
