Rent the best private dog parks hosted by locals in Big Rapids, Michigan

"Big Open Area" has 2 ponds with optional pavilion, BBQ grill and fire pit with a bundle of wood.

Spot & Trail conditions report: Monday 5/13/24 7:30am. Our soil is mostly sand, so our trails rarely (if ever) have standing water after a rain. The trails are groomed and ready for you! What a beautiful day! Not enough hours in a day? Check out our "Get Your Glow On" Extra and come play with your pooch after dark. WE ARE OPEN 7 days-a-week Year-Round (including holidays)! Our guests describe our Sniffspot as a "Destination Spot." That is why our guests travel here from Grand Rapids, Holland, Lansing, and Kalamazoo. We have Ten scenic wooded acres (square). Fully fenced in. Walk along the pond and through the trees on groomed trails. There are also yard areas and a picnic table. Beautiful and private acreage with views of a 60-acre non-motorized lake. Canicross and Canicross Training welcome! One lap of our outer loop (through the woods) = 1/2 mile. We are set up nicely to practice 5K.

Welcome to Canada Corners! Home to all things dog sports! Hours during the summer will be very limited - usually Mondays-Wednesdays we are open with a few odd weekend days. If there is not an available time shown, feel free to message and I likely will be able to open it up! We have a big ultra dog friendly yard, pool, and indoor K9 gym that is well stocked with training supplies and dog sports equipment. We back up to a hay field, apple orchard, and a wetlands and pond that is full of lovely wildlife and birds. It is very reactive dog friendly here!! We have a herd of goats that stay in their separate pasture. The goat area is off limits to dogs except on approval, however people are welcome to say hi to the goats and may feed them pre-approved snacks. The yard is not a perfectly manicured lawn; it is left somewhat natural so you can expect leaves, longer grass (nothing too crazy), weeds, and some uneven footing. Digging is welcome in this yard so watch out for doggy dig sites! The pool has just been cleaned from winter. There is a filter as well as a small chlorine tab. Shock and other pool chemicals used as needed but as minimally as possible to stay super pet safe. The pool yard can be closed off from the main yard if needed. The pool is about 2’ deep with an inflatable ramp for smaller dogs to exit safely. The pool sets right next to the deck allowing dogs to jump into the pool easily. There are pool noodles to fill the gap between the deck and pool edge for safety. The deck is composite and does heat up in the sun but umbrellas and pop ups are available to keep it shady. And a mister for especially hot days! There are agility obstacles and training equipment on site - we have jumps, weaves, small tunnel, old school flyball box and hurdles, platforms, klimb table, carpet mill, fitpaws equipment, and a SwiftPaws kit. We also have equipment for nosework, shed hunt, obedience, and a full rally set of signs with cones. There are loads of dog toys and treats available including a Treat n Train machine. There is a large tire ball pit - this is located in the pool yard so that it can be closed off if needed. There is a kiddie pool in the main yard. Everything in the yard and three season porch is available for use during your visit. There is a small library of training resources and some games for people including a badminton set. Drinks, refreshments, and snacks are available in the mini fridge and snack basket! Please see the welcome binder for a full inventory on where everything is located along with general housekeeping tips and training resources. Assistance with dog sport training is available (requires some coordination around schedules) and questions about the equipment are always welcome! Our welcome table has our full menu of services from dog grooming to training to pet portraits! This private dog park is also home to Canada Corners Pet Grooming. There is a dog wash inside. This is by appointment only, please contact me for details!

***closed until a privacy fence can be installed*** a guest and their dog invaded the neighbors yard. The dog barged thru the chain link fence, after getting very riled up. we cannot operate until this cannot happen again.

Our backyard has something for you AND your dog! Our deck is furnished in the warmer months with fun furniture and string lights. Please feel free to relax while your dog explores or set up agility equipment for training!

Great little trail so beautiful!

5 acres before train tracks 20 after property line goes to the right as you go back more to the creek.

We have a pond in the backyard. We have no dogs and neither do neighbors on either side 🙂

There is more property on the side and front of house. We do have cows on the left side of us and our neighbors houses are a pretty good distance away from us. It is all open, no woods. This place is out in the country so a wondering cat or rabbit may be in sight once in a while. This would be a great place for a well mannered dog with a human who is not very social and would like privacy to just play outside with their pet or for someone who wants to do some training with their dog!

This was my dog Giacomo's yard, which he absolutely loved. So many knooks and crannies, dig spots and lush grass to roll around on. He passed on 3/21/24, but his last day I had with him in his yard, I told him others were going to enjoy it and his memory would stay alive as new friends will smell his presence. I will not get another dog, he was my best, but I take comfort in knowing others can enjoy a safe place to run and play in Giacomo's memory. I hope your pup will enjoy 😊
