55Such a fun place to check out! Lots of different trails and rivers and ponds. I was able to take my dog who doesnโt like other dogs and felt so relieved knowing I wouldnโt run into any others. We did see a coyote but it scattered away from us. Kaycee was very responsive. Will definitely visit again!Sarah G.

55We had the best time! It was so nice to be able to explore and not worry about any other dogs (one of our dogs gets anxious around other dogs). We made sure to bring lots of towels for the car because they kept jumping in the ponds on the property :) we will definitely be back!Lisa B.

55This is a wonderful place to bring dogs who are anxious or not interested in encountering stranger dogs. Lots of trails, smells, and ponds to explore! My dog and her friend had a great time playing and roaming the trails. Kaycee is very responsive to messages and was kind and welcoming to us on our first visit. We will be back many times!Leah G.

55Such a gorgeous, peaceful location. Tons of options for trails, our dog absolutely loved exploring off leash. There are a few ponds and some wildlife, we saw a deer! So if your pup loves water or will chase after animals, it might be best to keep them on leash.Jess H.

55We had a great time exploring this beautiful property! It was easy to find. The paths are well maintained. Most importantly, I felt safe letting my dog explore off leash. It was a great experience. We can't wait to visit again.Michele H.

55Meracle Acres is a TREAT! Tucked away in the serene backwoods, this private retreat was pure delight. Lot of smells and ponds to splash around in...just a wonderful place where a dog and be a dog! Tip: Bring a squeaker toy so you can play hide and seek as there are many trails that split into different sections. Have your pup sit and wait while you hide and use the squeaker to have them come find you or sniff you out! Also, a bug spray could be helpful on a humid day. There are two ponds where the doggos can take a dip on a hot day...they're clean and they're like a beach where they can wade if they don't want to plunge. So glad I found this gem. It's worth an afternoon trip out of the city to decompress. Thank you, Meracle Acres!C. L.

55What an unbelievable place for me and Blue!!! There was a groomed maize of wooded nature trails to run so fast and free on (and chase balls), plus two clean, clear swimmable ponds to also fetch toys amongst. Communication with Kaycee was immediate and so accommodating. I cannot wait to make Blue so happy again soon. Julie C.

55Doggy paradise! I wish I could give it 6 stars. My dogs had so much fun racing through the wooded trails and swimming in the pond. They did get quite muddy, so bring towels!Leah M.

55One of my favorite places to return to. They opened up an additional trail that takes you around the perimeters to the left. You have to get over a fallen tree and some broken branches (not bad at all) where you get closer to the farm fields and to another nice spot with a pond for swimming or quick dip for the dog(s). Another great time out at Meracle Acres!C. L.
