Description

Welcome to our farm! We raise endangered heritage breed chickens and geese, produce farm fresh free range eggs and ship organic bare root plants globally! We have 2 acres which we don't currently use, but keep mowed. The street side is completely fenced with a 4 foot fence. All other sides are densely tree lined, except a gap at the east side of the property for water access to the clean seasonal stream. There is a large fire pit and groups of up to 10 humans and 6 dogs are welcome. Host's son is in college for animal behavior, has 3 years of experience working professionally with dogs, and 2 with farm animals. He is available to provide dog sitting if guest needs separately. To access the area, park at the detached garage and walk to a break in the fence to the southeast. As you move east past the entrance, you will be in the field. Please ensure dogs stay leashed until they are in the field.

Absolutely wonderful location! The dogs had a blast running around, playing in the creek and sniffing in the taller grass. They slept the whole ride home then went to bed right when we got home from all the excitement We’ll definitely plan to come back 🥰
Host replied: We look forward to hosting you and your fur babies again soon!

Maple Ridge Farms-100 Acre Woods

Our 100 acre farm has been in the family for over 30 years. We have put a lot of time and effort into the property. And we would love to share it with you and your fur family to. The trails are all very well maintained. You will likely see birds, deer and plenty of wildlife throughout the trials. We hope to see you out and about enjoying it just as much as we do with all of our animals. ****Notes We are Blocked Off for a Couple Weeks we recently had some trees logged off 🌳We are working hard and getting everything cleaned back up. We apologize for the inconvenience Please reach out if you have any questions in the meantime😊 Happy SPRING 🌹🌸 Please keep the weather in mind. All of our trails are in the woods. We HIGHLY recommend if the wind is above 15 mph to reschedule. (You can cancel and get your money back-we understand) We just don’t want you or your pet getting hurt if anything were to happen in the winter woods. One other thing. Don’t forget bring those Boots. All of our trails are usually dry. But if you do come after it rains it could be a little muddy. Last but not least the Porter John is gone for the Winter/Spring 🥶 Thank you for checking out our spot!! We look forward to meeting you and your furfriends. 🐕☺️ Maple Ridge Farms ❤️ **

All The Waters Bluff and Beach Walk

5 minute mulched bluff trail down to private beach access. You might not see another soul while you walk a mile in each direction on beautiful Lake Michigan sandy beach. One of a kind destination for humans and dogs alike!

Heidi's Private Dog Park In Kalamazoo

There are so many dogs living in small apartments downtown that have no place to run free, off-leash outdoors. Please feel free to share my space! Your dog can get his energy out without you having to walk a mile with the leash. Enjoy relaxing on our bench instead!

A Waggin Good Time at Mellow Acres

Please park in the front and walk around back. We are in the process of building a beautiful fenced in area coming spring 2024! The other property is leash on and has beautiful wooded terrain to explore, and barnyard animals waiting to say hello! ❤️

Alexandra's Private Dog Park In Zeeland

Large fenced in yard on the north side of Zeeland. We are constantly working on our yard to make it fun and the best it can be for not only my dogs, but our visitors as well! I have two reactive dogs so I understand the need for spaces like this!
