55Nice, peaceful space with mowed trails for the dogs to explore. Native plants, birdwatching, very clean and safe for the pups.
55A wonderful spot! We enjoyed our morning coffee on the chairs and then walked with the dogs along the trails. Flushed a pheasant on our walk. Saw at least 4 deer when we drove in to park!
55Nice quiet spot with a lot of room for my guys to run around!
55What a loved spot to let my pups run around!! Would definitely come back!
55My corgi is reactive so we can't give off leash especially on public trails. So happy we found this one, I brought along my corgi puppy too and they both had a blast.
55Loved it here, our dogs had a blast. They are both reactive so we can’t take them to dog parks or many public places, meaning they don’t have anywhere to really run and roam to their hearts desire. We have a decent yard at home but it’s nothing close to the space, landscape, or level of stimulation they had here. We will be regulars here.
55It's Oreo and Zildjian! We visited Max and Maggie's Sniffspot and are happy to report that four acres of prairie is A LOT of room for running, sniffing, chasing and wrestling! We loved bounding through the tall grass, while the mowed trails gave us plenty of runway to really stretch our legs. Mom even got to pull the car right inside the fence, so we were off on our adventure without ever needing our leashes. Mom brought her real camera and apparently had visions of a nice photo session. We felt more of an action-shot kind of vibe...better luck next time, Mom. She did a pretty good job keeping up with us, though. Since she's still recovering from a knee injury, we're pretty sure exploring four acres counts as physical therapy and another visit is medically necessary. It was a long drive, but completely worth it. Great sniffs, plenty of room to play, tasty water and two very happy dogs. We'll definitely be back soon!
55Very nice and open area with lots of variety and terrain. Doggos had an amazing time. Would recommend to visit
55This place is great!
55Super fun!! Very nice property with nice walking paths and the dogs had a blast and are tired!! Will definitely be back!!

Description

4-Acre Private Fenced Dog Park — Run, Explore & Sniff! Looking for more than a typical dog park? Give your dog the chance to enjoy a private, 4-acre fenced country adventure with plenty of room to run, explore, sniff, and just be a dog! Our property offers a mix of open cleared areas, mowed trails, natural meadow, mature trees, and shaded areas. Whether your dog wants to race around doing zoomies, play fetch, follow an interesting scent down a trail, or simply wander and investigate, there’s plenty to discover. What you’ll find: Approximately 4 fully fenced acres Mowed trails through natural vegetation Large cleared areas for running, fetch, and play Shaded areas beneath mature trees A sitting area for humans while the dogs explore Lots and lots of interesting smells! A private alternative to crowded public dog parks A True Country Experience This is a natural rural property—not a manicured city dog park. Wildlife is common here, including deer, pheasants, gophers, and other small animals. Our own dogs frequently surprise a pheasant hiding in the grass, so dogs that love using their noses will have plenty to investigate. Because we maintain much of the acreage in its natural state, you’ll encounter tall grasses, native vegetation, burrs, seeds, uneven terrain, and changing conditions throughout the seasons. Gophers are also very active here, which means there are gopher mounds and holes throughout the property. Please watch your footing while exploring, and consider whether the terrain is appropriate for dogs or people with mobility concerns. We recommend doing a quick paw and coat check for burrs before heading home. Perfect for dogs who love to explore, dogs who need room to RUN, or anyone looking for a peaceful and private alternative to the traditional dog park. Four fenced acres. No crowds. Lots of sniffing. Come explore the trails, enjoy the country, and let your dog have an adventure!

We love living out here—but I’m pretty sure our Border Collies love it even more! We moved here in 2025 after years of trying to manage all that Border Collie energy while living in town. One of our dogs is reactive, which meant public dog parks just weren’t an option for us. We wanted a place where she could simply run, chase her ball or Frisbee, explore, and just be a dog without us constantly worrying about other dogs or people approaching. One day, while I was mowing a path through our pasture and watching our dogs happily run around the fenced acreage, I couldn’t help but think about how many other dog families could benefit from a space like this—especially those with reactive dogs, high-energy dogs, or anyone who just wants some peaceful, worry-free time outdoors with their best friend. So, with a little extra mowing, some trail clearing, and a comfortable sitting area, we decided to share our little piece of the country with others. Our goal is simple: to give dogs a safe place to run, sniff, explore, and play—and give their people a chance to relax and enjoy watching them do it. We hope you and your dogs enjoy this space as much as ours do

3 acres

Come and enjoy our own private 3plus acres of wooded with some open space and trails. Fully fenced in and secure. So much space for your fur babies to run and explore. No need to stress with other dogs that may be reactive. Or maybe your pup doesn’t play well with others and prefers their own space. Our private dog park is for you. This space is amazing. It is not attached to our back yard and is a completely separate and private area. A great place for play dates with others, maybe even a picnic for the humans. Bring your snowshoes if you would like a bit of a workout yourself off trail in the deeper snow! ***2-16-26 the field is in poor conditions due to the frozen ground and warm temperatures. Please watch your footing. Early morning guest the low areas will refreeze and be crazy slippery, later guests need waterproof boots. PLEASE NOTE: Zero tolerance for smoking of ANYTHING while on our property. You may smoke in your own personal vehicle. But also, do NOT leave your dogs unattended. Fill any holes you pup digs and return toy to bin. Also, in the winter months, please be aware that their is no lighting in the field. The designated Sniffspot parking area has ample lighting but none in the field. ***please note that Duck hunting has begun. If you arrive early in the am here, there is a possibility of hearing shotguns. You are perfectly safe as they are hunting along the Mississippi corridor but just a heads up for dogs that are sound reactive.***

Walter & Leroys Ridge- 3 Acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Park In Cambridge

Fully Fenced
3 acres

3 acres of full fenced area that can be closed off into separate areas (ie: main yard around the house, side yard, and lower pasture) or you can have it completely open and connected to all areas. There are cut and maintained trails in the lower pasture and then many smaller trail systems created by the deers and the dogs. In the summer it is buggy and there are ticks- particularly in the wooded area. I’m working on getting some tiki torches that can be lit when people are exploring the lower pasture. I’ll try and keep some bug spray and a lighter by the entrance to the lower pasture. During July-August is when the horse flies are the worst. Things to know about horse flies- they are attracted to shiny items (the sun hitting a car, rings, watches, dark hair). When it’s hot out, they like to be in the shade and when it’s cooler in the mornings they like to be in the sun. They aren’t deterred by citronella like mosquitos. If you have a dark haired dog I highly recommend using “swat” and applying some to their ears & top of their head, it’s the only thing that keeps them away from my GSD. I will try and keep a container of swat by the entrance to the lower pasture- make sure to wash your hands after applying it. There is also an additional acre-ish in the “arena” that your welcome to explore, however it is partially/poorly fenced and it is connected to the area where the goat pasture is, so if your dog has poor recall or issues with livestock it would be best to keep them on a long line if your going out there.
