55Our pack had such a fantastic time today!
55Black Pond is one of our very favorite sniff spots! So much room to romp, trails to run, logs to clamber, water to splosh and swim, and sniffs to enjoy. Thank you for sharing your beautiful property with us!
55Loved the hiking trails ❤️ Thank you!
55Beautiful day at Black Pond! There must have been 1000 shades of green around the pond today.
55This is such a fun spot! Trails, two ponds for swimming, great zoomie areas. Our pups had the best time. Fully stocked area with balls, a bin for poop bags, drinking water, and even a life vest for pups. A new favorite spot!
55Great place, very well thought out.
55Our two dogs had a blast here! The beautiful day made for some much needed pond time! Thanks for the fun morning!
55The dogs had the best time running around and swimming! We did see a couple of horses and bunnies.
55great spot for dogs to run around and play. very clean and spacious. that said, be mindful that the trails are very narrow and slippery when wet (it was pouring during our visit). and set aside time to dry your pups before your time is up..all and all i would recommend this place!
55It’s so beautiful and clean , my dog loved jumping in the pond!!

Description

It’s always been very safe for off leash woodland adventures...because it feels like you have it all to yourself. You begin down at the lower pond by the castle and rock wall, Following a laidback walk in the shade up to the new off leash park. There is bug spray along the trail in case you forget to use some and want it. Please respect other visitors and make sure to put your doggie bags in the provided trash bins, and PLEASE do not put your doggie bags in the fire pit!!!

Cleanliness

100% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

Hazards

:: Native woodland experience. :: There are squirrels and various wild birds that may be seen or heard during your visit, so if your dog is reactive or has poor recall make sure they are on a leash as not to wander off! 🐾 The single top wire on the fence on the pasture side is electric, so I personally do not recommend touching it, although if you take a blade of grass and lay it on the single top wire you will be able to tell whether it is on or off. Again, I do not recommend doing this however :). 🐾 We are out in the country and people may rarely light off fireworks or shoot guns in the distance. They are not close to the property, but the noise carries. 🐾 We board horses on the property. Although rare, you may encounter one of the boarders riding on the section of trails used for Sniffspot to access other areas. They have been instructed to avoid our Sniffspot guests. We ask that you do not approach or feed treats to their horses without permission from their owners. (As with your puppers, every horse has a unique diet too.) Other sounds that you may hear while visiting a rural Sniffspot property include: chainsaws, lawn mowers, weed whackers, tractors, rented heavy equipment, dump trucks making deliveries, livestock in nearby pastures or roosters crowing in distant chicken coops. 😊 Happy Sniffing!

We’ve been at Black Pond Farm since 1998, and our son started the Sniffspot to help with college. He is done with school and moved on to his career so we’re now taking care of the Sniffspot. If you can think of anything to improve our Sniffspot or you have any questions let us know!

You can access the main loop out the back gate of the dog park (be sure to close and secure the gate behind you) or if you go out the front dog park gate, walk around towards the back of the dog park and hang right when you see trail options. There are single track cross through trails through the center of the main loop that you can explore at your leisure as well. The main loop is about a 10-15 minute walk depending on your pace.

Hike up the mini forest

Our property is shy of 12 acres, 9+ acres of which we're sharing as a private off leash dog space or Sniffspot. The entrance is over the bridge where the creek is and 'From Creek to Back of Property' is all yours to explore. You may unleash your doggies right after the bridge and chain the gate if you want. Dogs might run down the creek for a splash or drink. Continue on to our family campground, there are picnic tables you could use. Then, up the hill you go to 'hike up the mini forest', free to roam around, listen to the birds, squirrels and other critters and sounds that nature brings you. You'll find seating areas while your dogs are at play, feel free to use them. Enjoy a picnic with your loved ones if you're up for it on one of the cabin porches or covered / uncovered picnic tables. The back of property behind fence is DNR land, so rest assured you’re on your own private little world with your furry buddies. The mini forest has some large walking paths and smaller trails scattered about, also some open meadows and is at a peaceful wooded setting. This is where I go to unwind and relieve my head of stress and worries. It’s my place of meditation, while my dogs sniff and romp around like crazy, do their zoomies and play hide n seek! *If you want to save a little bit of moolah, I offer membership. Forget about the gym, you'll get your exercise here with your dogs. If you are a member of my sniffspot, or have older dog/s and would like to drive below or up the hill to park so the fur buddy don't get exhausted, message me.* Some of you have asked about the cabins. Sniffspot is unavailable if Cabins are booked or vice versa. Booking is through Hipcamp (www.hipcamp.com). Name of listing: 'Grace E.'s Mini Forest Cabins'. Check it out by copying and pasting link below to browser or search listing through the hipcamp site. https://www.hipcamp.com/en-US/land/washington-grace-e-s-mini-forest-ex9hrrp8?shareid=1ddvuyvr3yh Saturdays are usually blocked if there's Hipcamp bookings. But I would unblock the hours for Sniffspot use if that day isn't booked for Hipcamp, so please try to check back, who knows that day might be available! Anyway, hope you too will enjoy your little 'hike up the mini forest..'
